Krill oil is an excellent alternative to fish, plant or seed sources of omega fatty acids. This is ideal for dogs that have a white fish allergy, but no shellfish allergy.
Krill oil contains high levels of a highly beneficial carotenoid called Astaxanthin, which is a powerful antioxidant. The Astaxanthin is responsible for the incredible red pigment in krill oil! It is such an amazing supplement that it is even able to cross the blood-brain barrier and deliver its benefits where it counts the most.
