It is no doubt that the success of Moxxor and its green-lipped mussel oil has been the tlak of the town. The use of this product experiences truly impressive results from the health benefits provided by this unique marine omega-3 oil. This helps Moxxor to quickly grow to an organization of 5,000 people in just a few months. It is fact that success attracted the criticism also.
Sellers of competing products such as krill oil and fish oil question the source of mussel oil. As green-lipped mussel oil sales increased, sales of competing products went down, and to defend their territory. The questions about the eco-sustainability of krill oil harvesting are constantly on move. It is said that krill oil is very cheap to harvest because it is plundered out of the ocean in a way which is ecologically irresponsible and completely insensitive to the marine mammals that depend on krill as their food source.
It is noticed that krill oil is removed from the open ocean where whales and other marine mammals feed. It is true there is a lot of total krill in the ocean, but what concerns marine biologists is the harvesting of krill concentrations near the feeding grounds of whales and other marine mammals.
Krill mostly live in Arctic and overfishing in the region is destroying the stocks. The oceans are being stressed globally! Recently, the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (NPFMC) voted to ban ALL commercial fishing in U.S. waters north of the Bering Straight due to the devastation being caused by unregulated commercial fishing.
