Superba™ Krill Oil Gains NDI Notification |
Superba™ Krill Gains NDI Notification

OSLO, Norway—FDA had no objections to Superba™ krill oil receiving a New Dietary Ingredient Notification (NDIN). Aker BioMarine™, which supplies Superba, said the notification was accepted after FDA reviewed toxicology and clinical research data obtained from animal and human testing, which provided significant support for evidence of safety. Aker BioMarine further provided detailed composition of krill oil, showing 69 choline-containing phospholipids, believed to be responsible for the unique benefits of krill.
The NDIN process was coordinated by the regulatory group at Aker BioMarine Antarctic with the assistance of Soni & Associates Inc. of Vero Beach Florida.
"Krill oil has been legally marketed in the United States for many years," stated Nils Hoem, Ph.D., chief scientist at Aker BioMarine. "However, in addition to our GRAS submission already in place, we felt our choice to submit information to FDA for review via the NDI process fully validates our safety dossier. Further, our unique manufacturing process uses ethanol, a more internationally accepted solvent."
Superba krill oil achieved a Novel Food approval for the EU in 2009.
Aker BioMarine's proprietary Eco-Harvesting™ technology and on-board processing result in the unique composition of Superba krill oil and provide traceability from sea to shelf. The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) granted MSC Certification for sustainable and well managed fisheries to Aker BioMarine. Aker sponsors in vitro, in vivo, and human clinical trials with phospholipid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from krill oil.
Superba krill oil is a natural source of phospholipid EPA and DHA omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFAs) and the naturally occurring antioxidant astaxanthin.
NOTE: A.C. Grace Company's UNIQUE OMEGA™ Krill Oil is Superba™ krill oil supplied by Aker BioMarine.

 A.C. Grace Company Sponsors Speakers at 2009 A4M Show in Las Vegas!
Leading Vitamin E company provides NEW findings based on Application Based Science to support the use of Vitamin E!
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) 25, December, 2009 – A.C. Grace Company, producers of UNIQUE E® products, known as the highest quality Vitamin E supplements available, sponsored two scientists specializing in their fields of Vitamin E research in workshops at the 17th Annual World Anti-Aging Congress and Exposition put on by A4M in Las Vegas, Dec. 10-12.
“Our goal was to provide NEW findings based on Application Based Science to support the use of vitamin E with focus on the TYPE of vitamin E to use, DOSAGE to use, and USE (oral or topical), to enable doctors and nutritionists address condition specific health issues,” stated Lyn Capps, President of A.C. Grace Company.
“We were happy to present two speakers at this year’s show: Barrie Tan, PhD, who spoke about the effectiveness of Annatto Tocotrienols working cooperatively with Mixed Tocopherols to provide the full-spectrum of benefits Vitamin E can offer (abstract available here); and Robert Stuart, PhD, who discussed extensive tests carried out to show how Natural Vitamin E works faster and more effectively than synthetic forms of Vitamin E as it carries across the blood-brain barrier (abstract available here).”
“The interest in Annatto Tocotrienols and PURE, NATURAL Vitamin E products is higher this year than in previous years,” said Capps, “it seemed like everyone attending the show came by our booth to discuss our product line of UNIQUE Vitamin E supplements.”
