Krill oil, the oil found naturally in krill is extracted and taken for its vast health benefits. Unlike shrimps or other shellfish, consuming it can help to reduce the bad cholesterol (LDL) and increase the good cholesterol (HDL) in the body.
Most people globally have low levels of omega-3s. A 2016 study showed that 97% of the world population has less than the optimal level of omega-3s in their body. Low levels of blood EPA and DHA for most of the world may increase risk for chronic disease (Prog Lipid Res. 63:132-152 (2016)).
Krill oil is the best source of omega-3 in the world. It is an essential and superior omega-3 source because of its concentrated form, phospholipid composition and Astaxanthin content. Our bodies can absorb more and therefore benefit from the omega-3 found in krill.

Did you know?
A recent study reported that a lower ratio of serum eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, omega-3 fatty acid) to arachidonic acid (AA, omega-6 fatty acid) is associated with an increased risk of cancer death, particularly death from liver cancer (J Epidemiol 27(12): 578-583 (2017)). These findings suggest that regular intake of EPA-rich foods or supplements such as krill oil may be effective in reducing the risk of cancer.

What is the difference between Perfect Krill EX and Perfect Krill?
PERFECT KRILL EX is the enhanced formula of Perfect Krill. The krill oil inPERFECT KRILL EX is extracted Using proprietary & exclusive technology to extract t, resulting in higher phospholipids and choline content. Phospholipids are a major structural component of all cell membranes to help maintain their strength, integrity and flexibility. In addition, phospholipids are also responsible for transporting long chain omega-3s EPA and DHA efficiently and directly into every cell of the body and across the blood brain barrier. Choline is vital for cell structure, function and signaling and contributes to cardiovascular, brain and liver health. Yet, 90% of the population are not managed to achieve an adequate daily intake of choline. Krill oil remains a good option to help increase body’s choline levels. Choline in krill oil is found in the form of phosphatidylcholine (PC), which has been shown to be 12X better than a choline salt in raising blood choline levels.
Who needs PERFECT KRILL EX?
PERFECT KRILL EX is highly recommended for the following individuals:
• Heart health concern, unhealthy blood glucose or lipid profile
• Fatty liver concerns
• Poor cognitive function (e.g. memory) or emotional health
• Dry, inflamed eyes or high eye pressure
• Joint discomfort
• Poor lung health or asthma
• Poor intestinal health or inflamed intestines
• Sunburn, excessive sun exposure or dry & rough skin
• Women coping with physical and emotional symptoms associated with women’s cycle
• Overweight or obese
• Athletes or physically active
• Poor sleep quality
What makes PERFECT KRILL EX the ideal omega-3 supplement as compared with other krill oil and fish oil?
PERFECT KRILL EX’s phospolipids and advanced delivery system allows it to be more easily absorbed compared with other omega-3 sources. It is up to 2.5 times better in bioavailability than fish oil and yields a ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value of 47 times higher than fish oil due to the presence of super antioxidant, astaxanthin. This also prevents it from oxidizing or becoming rancid. Sourced from the deep oceans in the Antartica, PERFECT KRILL EX ensures quality oil with minimal toxins and heavy metals. Its unique patented extraction process also makes it better in bioavailability compared with other krill oils in the market.
What should I look out for when choosing a krill oil supplement?
Pure krill oil supplements ensures that our body is able to better absorb and utilise its omega-3 content. However, there are some supplements that contain a mixture of fish and krill oil. Although this will allow the omega-3 content to be higher than pure krill oil, the absorbability may differ due to the different structure of the different omega-3 content. Choose trusted sources that have been widely supported by patents and clinical trials.
Why is the DHA and EPA content in krill oil lesser than fish oil?
Scientific tests indicate that even though PERFECT KRILL EX contains less DHA and EPA than fish oil, it is more bioavailable and effective due to its phospholipid content. Phospholipids assist in the uptake of the krill oil’s DHA and EPA into body cells and tissues.
Are there any known side effects with PERFECT KRILL EX ? Is it suitable for long-term consumption?
There are no known side effects associated with the daily consumption of PERFECT KRILL EX when taken as directed, except if one is allergic to shellfish. However, dietary supplements are not a substitute for a healthy diet and lifestyle. It is recommended for long-term consumption for optimal health.
Recommended Dosage:
1 to 2 softgels daily with water

"My total cholesterol level has improved and my good cholesterol level (HDL Cholesterol) went up too! "
"I’m a food lover so it’s sometimes hard for me to resist tasty and ‘sinful’ foods that can be unhealthy. A few years ago, I found out that my cholesterol was at the borderline range. My doctor asked if I would like to start a low dose cholesterol medicine to prevent further increase but I rejected the idea of medication. I stopped my regular Fish Oil Omega-3 and switched to PERFECT KRILL Omega-3 instead. My recent blood test report came back with flying colours. My total cholesterol level has improved and my good cholesterol level (HDL Cholesterol) went up too! My doctor was both surprised and impressed with the result – despite my age, I have passed my medical test with a clean bill of health!"

Heart Health
Krill oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA and DHA that are available in phospholipid structure, allowing it to be readily absorbed by the body. It is also more efficient in supporting healthy blood lipid profile and heart health compared with conventional fish oil.
Joint Health
Krill oil helps to promote joint health and flexibility by reducing plasma C-reactive protein, a key marker of joint inflammation.
Brain Health
Krill oil is rich in omega-3 and phospholipids which are vital nutrients that support healthy cognitive functions especially in promoting better concentration and focus.
Krill oil provides antidepressant-like effects. The synergy of various components in krill oil, such as omega-3 phospholipids and astaxanthin plays a role in combating depression.
One way of measuring the state of depression in rodents is the Forced Swimming Test (FST). The immobility time (passive floating in water) is a measure of depression-like behaviour (learned helplessness). The group which was given krill oil showed decrease in the duration of immobility compared to control group.
Women's Health
Krill oil helps to relieve physical and emotional symptoms associated with women’s menstrual cycle.
Liver Health
Krill oil helps reduce liver triglyceride (fat). These effects were associated with a lower concentration of anandamide (AEA) in the liver, which in turn was associated with lower levels of arachidonic acid in membrane phospholipids. AEA is the endocannabinoid responsible for non-alcoholic liver triglyceride (fat) deposition in rodents. These results suggest that beneficial effects of krill oil are the result of changes in membrane fatty acid composition.
Eye Health
Krill oil helps soothe dry eye symptoms by reducing OSDI score*, ocular bulbar redness (eye redness)and proinflammatory cytokines (IL-17A). *The Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) is a 12-item scale for the assessment of symptoms related to dry eye disease and their effect on vision, with higher scores representing greater disability.
Intestinal Health
Krill oil reduces intestinal inflammation by weakening adhesion and invasion of harmful bacteria (e.g. E. coli) in intestinal lining cells and reducing proinflammatory cytokines (TNFα).
Weight Management
Krill oil significantly reduces circulating anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) in obese subjects. An increase of AEA and 2-AG is associated with weight gain. Circulating 2-AG levels in obese individuals strongly correlate with visceral adipose tissue, high triglyceride levels, low HDL-cholesterol levels and indices of insulin resistance.
Sport and Performance
Krill oil significantly increases PBMC IL-2 production and NK cell cytotoxic activity 3 hours post-exercise compared to placebo, indicating that krill oil improves immune function in the recovery period after exercise.

Research Proven Health Benefits of Krill Oil / Omega-3s
Heart health: Both omega-3s and choline in krill oil work synergistically to maintain heart health. Omega-3s help improve blood lipid profile, while high choline intake is associated with a reduced risk of heart disease.
Increase omega-3s, reduce omega-6: omega-3 ratio, improve omega-3 index (Lipids Health Dis. 12:178 (2013), PLoS One. 11(10): e0162769 (2016))
Reduce fasting glucose, an important marker of cardiovascular risk (J Nutr Sci. 7: e3 (2018))
Reduce high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP*), a marker of inflammation (Arch Med Sci. 12(3): 507–512 (2016))
Improve endothelial & vascular function and reduce risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) (BMJ Open Diabetes Res Care. 3(1): e000107 (2015), Atherosclerosis. 212(2): 580-585 (2010))
(Omega-3s) Reduce the levels of homocysteine¥ (Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis.20(5):326-331 (2010))
Provide antioxidant benefits due to astaxanthin
*hs-CRP is produced by the body when blood-vessel walls are inflamed. The higher the levels of hs-CRP, the higher the levels of inflammation tend to be and the higher the risk of CVD.
¥A high level of homocysteine is a risk factor for heart disease.
Blood glucose: Lowering blood sugar levels helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. According to a study, krill oil is more effective than consuming fish alone at reducing blood glucose levels (J Nutr Sci. 7: e3 (2018))
Reduce blood glucose levels (Altern Med Rev. 9(4): 420-428 (2004))
Enhance insulin sensitivity (Lipids Health Dis. 14: 88 (2015))
Liver health: Choline works with omega-3s to maintain healthy liver function by moving fat out of the liver and reduce the risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. In this way, the liver is freed up to perform its vital functions of regulating levels of nutrients in the blood and detoxification.
Reduce fat content in the liver (J Nutr. 139(8): 1495-1501 (2009), J Hepatol. 56(4): 944-951 (2012))
Reduce lipid and cholesterol synthesis pathway in liver (Front Genet. 2: 45 (2011))
Reduce glucose production pathway in liver (Front Genet. 2: 45 (2011))
Brain health: Phospholipids helps transport omega-3s (EPA & DHA) through the blood brain barrier. Omega-3s are important for maintenance of normal brain function. They play vital roles in the proper structure and function of brain cell membranes. Low levels of omega-3s have been linked to several cognitive disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease, depression, ADHD etc.
