Three Times More Powerful Than Fish Oil, MegaRed(TM) Omega-3 Krill Oil Now Available Nationwide. - Cardiovascular Week

Health-conscious consumers who are tired of taking several large fish oil softgels every day now have a smaller, more powerful alternative to fish oil supplements in MegaRed(TM) Omega-3 Krill Oil from Schiff. MegaRed delivers essential omega-3 fatty acids combined with powerful antioxidants, and is three times better than fish oil for supporting heart health. One MegaRed softgel per day -- which is about as small as a coffee bean -- supports overall cardiovascular health, helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels and promotes joint health and flexibility. MegaRed is now available nationwide at retailers such as Costco, Walgreens, CVS and Sam's Club (see also Schiff Nutrition Group, Inc.).

'The benefits of MegaRed Omega-3 Krill Oil when compared to fish oil supplements, include superior nutritional support, strong antioxidant content and better smell and taste,' said Luke Bucci, Ph.D., Schiff vice president of research. 'Individuals also love that they only have to take one, small softgel per day as opposed to three large, difficult-to-swallow fish oil softgels that often smell fishy and leave an unpleasant aftertaste.'
