Krill Oil Supplements – An Effective Alternative to Omega 3 Fish Oil


Millions of Americans supplement their diets with products such as Carlson fish oil and Eskimo 3 fish oil. Any why not? Fish oil products have been scientifically shown to help improve your overall health. Many doctors even prescribe fish oil supplements to help satin-sensitive patients lower their cholesterol levels.

The main issue I have with these supplements is the absolutely awful after-taste (and potential regurgitation) that is common. If you have ever experienced this taste then you know just how bad it is! It is seriously bad enough to make you feel sick!

Fortunately, krill oil supplements have proven to be an effective alternative.

For those of you who do not know, krill are the tiny shrimp-like creatures that feed the largest whales in the world. It is nothing for them to consume 8,000 or more pounds of krill in a day. Don’t worry too much about this natural resource being depleted anytime soon though. Along with plankton, krill make up the largest biomass in the world, effectively making it almost completely self-renewing.

Krill oil supplements are typically composed of naturally occurring omega 3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), astaxanthin (an important antioxidant), and vitamins A and E. As you can see, krill oil may just be one of the best supplements you can take to make a substantial improvement in your overall health.

Even more impressive is the findings that krill oil supplements may be more than 48 times more potent than your typical fish oil supplements. In addition to addressing overall health issues, this naturally occurring oil may even help cure many common skin conditions and help ease the pain associated with normal (less severe) joint pain.

Until more research has been completed I will personally continue to use a combination of Eskimo 3 fish oil, Carlson fish oil, and Krill oil capsules. You should also consult your doctor before beginning any supplementation regime. Information found within this article should not be construed as medical advice in any way!

Taking Krill Oil Supplements in conjunction with a popular omega 3 fish oil product can help improve common health issues such as high cholesterol levels, minor skin issues and even minor joint problems. When combined with a regular exercise routine you can dramatically improve your life.
