  • Brain function: EPA and DHA are crucial for brain development and function. They support cognitive abilities, memory, and may help reduce the risk of age – related cognitive decline.
  • Anti – inflammation: Krill oil has anti – inflammatory properties, which can help alleviate inflammation – related conditions such as joint pain and arthritis. The astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant, also contributes to reducing oxidative stress in the body.
