I guarantee you will want to try krill in favor is fish oil and once you switch you won't ever go back. I once had someone debate me that you need more than 1 or two grams a day of omega-3's for optimal function. I rebutted by asking him what would he rather take 500 milligrams of s isomer alpha-lipoic acid or 100 mgs. of potassium corrected R-isomer ALA? Why take more of a lesser effective substance? That's like gobbling primo tabs as opposed to just injecting a fraction of the amount with much better results overall.


ORAC(anti-oxidant potency rating):


fish oil:8
lycopene: 58
krill oil: 378


It's so potent, that if I take more than 2 grams per day(usually only take 1.5), I notice symptoms of the aforementioned high dose fish oil intake.
Excellent for breakouts too(as in a thing of the past) The difference between krill and fish oil is like comparing synthetic store-bought vitamin E to high-gamma mixed tocopherol E. Lights out, Game over.

Fully agree with this.
