The fatty acids in krill oil occur as phospholipids, which have higher bioavailability compared to triglycerides found in oil from fatty sea fish. Phospholipids are fundamental building blocks of cell membranes and participate in intercellular transport. Krill oil contains mostly phosphatidylcholine.
Research indicates that krill oil may have several advantages compared to traditional fish oil. A study published in "Lipids in Health and Disease" found that krill oil is effective in raising omega-3 levels in the blood, attributed to the higher bioavailability of phospholipids in krill oil compared to triglycerides in fish oil.
