This crustacean is part of the zooplankton and is found in large quantities in the Northern Arctic Ocean (Arctic Ocean). The naturally high content of the carotenoid astaxanthin gives the oil its characteristic deep red color.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eCalanus oil has a unique composition of fats and is rich in omega-3 fatty acids (over 20%). The uniqueness of Calanus oil is that the fatty acids occur in the form of wax esters for more than 86%, esters of fatty acids and fatty alcohols (fatty acids bound to fatty alcohols). This gives the oil specific, beneficial properties for health that are not or less present in 'regular' fish oil or krill oil.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThe difference in action between omega-3 fatty acids from Calanus oil and fish oil is likely due to the fact that wax esters are digested more slowly than ethyl esters and triglycerides from fish oil. During the digestion of wax esters, the free fatty acids are likely released lower in the intestines, in the distal part of the small intestine and in the large intestine. These intestinal areas are richest in receptors that respond to free fatty acids, the fatty acid sensors FFA4 (also known as GPR120).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eComposition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition per softgel:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nCalanus™ oil \u003cem\u003e(Calanus finmarchicus)\u003c\/em\u003e from \u003cstrong\u003ecrustaceans (zooplankton)\u003c\/strong\u003e 500 mg:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003ewax esters 425 mg\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eunsaturated fatty acids 145 mg\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003etotal omega-3 105 mg\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eastaxanthin 300 mcg\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIngredients\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCalanus™ oil (Calanus finmarchicus) from zooplankton (CRUSTACEANS), Stabilizer (capsule: FISHgelatin, glycerine, water).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eUsage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 to 2 softgels per day with or after a meal.
