Transparent Labs Krill Oil features Superba™, a high-purity source of omega-3 fatty acids from sustainably sourced Antarctic Krill (Euphausia superba). Superba™ Krill Oil has more than 50 clinical studies demonstrating its numerous health benefits in humans, ranging from supporting blood sugar and blood lipid balance to cardiovascular function, immunity, joint integrity, and even cognition.
Unlike conventional fish oil supplements, krill oil provides essential omega-3 fatty acids, notably docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), in their more bioavailable and biocompatible phospholipid forms. Antarctic krill oil is a natural source of astaxanthin and choline, which play an integral role in eye health and cellular functions. In fact, the astaxanthin in krill oil protects the omega-3 fatty acids from oxidation/spoilage, preventing the need for additives or preservatives found in fish oil products. Astaxanthin also imparts krill oil a vibrant red color.
In addition, taking krill oil won't cause an upset stomach or leave an unpleasant aftertaste (aka "fish burps") like many fish oil supplements.
Key Features
Made with Premium Superba™ Krill Oil: Derived from Antarctic Krill through sustainable practices, Superba™ Krill Oil offers unparalleled purity without any further processing methods. The simple extraction of Superba Krill Oil preserves freshness while maintaining high levels of valuable nutrients like choline, astaxanthin, EPA, and DHA. The result is a clean, natural, and minimally processed product free from additives, preservatives, or unwanted substances.
Bioavailable and Biocompatible Omega-3 Fatty Acids: One key advantage of krill oil over fish oil is its phospholipid forms of essential omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA and DHA. Phospholipids are an integral part of our cell membranes, influencing cellular structure and function. Since our body’s cells contain phospholipids, phospholipid-bound omega-3 fatty acids are readily incorporated into cell membranes.
Backed by 50+ Clinical Trials: Superba™ Krill Oil is one of the most studied single ingredients in the nutritional supplement space, with over 50 clinical trials conducted to date. Research consistently demonstrates the myriad health benefits of krill oil, affecting virtually all body systems, from the musculoskeletal and immune systems to the nervous and cardiovascular systems.
Unmatched Sustainability and Quality: More consumers are becoming aware of the harsh, ecologically unsustainable fishing practices behind the seafood industry (which includes fish oil supplements). In addition to the quality advantages of krill oil, Antarctic Krill is one of the most abundant species on the planet, and Antarctic fisheries maintain strict regulations to ensure minimal environmental impact and sustainability.

Krill oil is often considered superior due to its phospholipid-bound omega-3s, which enhance absorption and bioavailability. It also contains astaxanthin, which protects the omega-3s from oxidation and provides additional anti-inflammatory benefits. Krill is also arguably one of the best natural phosphatidylcholine sources.
Moreover, krill oil might be a better option for those who experience digestive discomfort or an unpleasant aftertaste with fish oil supplements due to its easier digestibility.
In the strictest sense, krill oil starts "working" (i.e. having a biological effect) shortly after you first ingest it. However, the time it takes for these effects to translate to palpable health benefits can vary based on a person's individual health conditions and what they're hoping to achieve from supplementation.
Some might notice improvements in mood and cognitive function within a few weeks, while more significant benefits, like reduced blood pressure or joint health improvements, might take two to three months of consistent usage.
What Is a Krill Oil Supplement Good For? | Taking krill oil may confer several evidence-based benefits, particularly for those looking to improve heart health, support cognitive function, control inflammation, and promote overall wellness. Krill oil is also an efficacious source of EPA and DHA, two of the omega-3 fatty acids commonly lacking in the modern diet. (Refer to the ingredient overview section above for more details on how these fatty acids work in the body.) |
Is Krill Oil Better than Fish Oil Pills? | Krill oil is often considered superior due to its phospholipid-bound omega-3s, which enhance absorption and bioavailability. It also contains astaxanthin, which protects the omega-3s from oxidation and provides additional anti-inflammatory benefits. Krill is also arguably one of the best natural phosphatidylcholine sources. Moreover, krill oil might be a better option for those who experience digestive discomfort or an unpleasant aftertaste with fish oil supplements due to its easier digestibility. |
Is Krill Oil Safe for the Liver? | Krill oil is generally safe for the liver and can be beneficial due to its lipid-lowering effects. By managing cholesterol and triglyceride levels, krill oil may reduce liver fat and support overall hepatic function. However, as with any supplement, individuals with pre-existing liver conditions should consult their primary healthcare provider or a registered dietitian before taking krill oil supplements. |
Is it Good to Take Krill Oil Every Day? | Taking krill oil daily can be beneficial for maintaining consistent levels of omega-3 fatty acids, specifically EPA and DHA, in the body. In turn, these fatty acids support numerous ongoing aspects of our biology and longevity. As such, daily supplementation with krill oil is viable and often recommended. |
When Should I Take Krill Oil, Morning or Night? | As stated above, Krill oil can be taken any time of day, but we recommend taking it with a meal. |
How Long Does it Take for Krill Oil to Start Working? | In the strictest sense, krill oil starts "working" (i.e. having a biological effect) shortly after you first ingest it. However, the time it takes for these effects to translate to palpable health benefits can vary based on a person's individual health conditions and what they're hoping to achieve from supplementation. Some might notice improvements in mood and cognitive function within a few weeks, while more significant benefits, like reduced blood pressure or joint health improvements, might take two to three months of consistent usage. |
Can You Take Krill Oil and Vitamin D Together? | Yes, you can take krill oil and vitamin D together. Combining these supplements may even be beneficial given the roles of vitamin D in bone health, immune function, and mood regulation. |

Superba™ Krill Oil | 1,000 mg | The Krill species (Euphausia superba) is vital to marine life. These tiny crustaceans may not be mighty in size, but they are a mighty source of two key omega-3 fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), along with choline and astaxanthin. Unlike traditional fish oil, Superba™ Antarctic Krill Oil contains EPA and DHA in highly absorbable phospholipid forms. (These fatty acids are considered "essential" nutrients since the body cannot make EPA and DHA on its own.) Phospholipids are amphiphilic, meaning they have lipid- and water-soluble components; the omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil are only lipid-soluble, which hinders their absorption and uptake into cells [1]. The easily digestible and highly bioavailable nature of krill oil phospholipids translates to superior health benefits over fish oils, even though smaller amounts of total EPA and DHA are provided [2]. Furthermore, since krill feed on phytoplankton rather than other contaminated fish, their exposure to heavy metals and pollutants is lessened. This aspect makes krill oil a purer source of omega-3s than fish oil. The evidence-based health benefits of Superba™ Krill Oil are quite extensive, with human studies showing it can:
|
Choline (from Krill Oil) | 50 mg | Choline is a vital micronutrient for overall cellular function since it's a component of the most abundant phospholipid in humans (phosphatidylcholine) [16]. It is also essential for acetylcholine production, which mediates cognitive and autonomic processes. |
Astaxanthin (from Krill Oil) | 100 mcg | Astaxanthin is a marine carotenoid that gives krill oil its natural red color. It is a potent antioxidant that has been shown to reduce phospholipid oxidation and works synergistically with EPA and DHA to support heart, brain, and eye health, among other things [17, 18]. |
