Krill Oil - Phospholipid Omega-3 Complex with Astaxanthin - 60 Softgels - 30 Servings - Supports Lipid Management, Metabolism, Brain & Heart Health - EPA & DHA - Gluten Free - Non-GMO

First heard of Krill Oil from reading the bulletproof diet. Apparently all Omega-3s are not created equally. Those derived from Krill are phosphorylated (I haven't confirmed this myself as a mass spectrometer is not readily available to me), making them more bioavailable. Makes sense to me, as in general biological molecules with phosphorylation marks and other such modifications behave much differently than the unmodified forms (especially true for proteins). Krill, being the magnificent creatures they are, also contain large quantities of Astaxanthin, a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory substance that gives many fish and in this case krill their pinkish color. I took some triple-strength, maximum human allowable dosage fish oil pills before switching to these. These contain around 4x less Omega-3s than the fish oil bollus I was ingesting previously, but I honestly feel about the same.

Was recommended by my Dr and I have no fishy burps

Gave this to my dog every other day. Gave Nordic Naturals Omega 3 (for humans) on other days. Switching off gave him the boost he needed to fight cancer. Jarrow is a great company. I have experience after working in a health food store for a long time. They are one of the best. I recommend using this along with Omega 3 from Nordic Naturals (my favorite fish oil company for humans — they are dedicated to fish oils. The Krill Oil added extra, different nutrients in a different form, which is why I chose to use both. Price is great, too. But don't skimp on the nordic naturals. Both in combo are the best!!!

I have tried several different fish oil pills. I have had the disgusting taste pop up in my mouth over and over again. I found this to work wonders for me. I will say this, I have found for myself, if I take the pills with or shortly after a meal, I have do not taste the oil later. Never have had an upset stomach from this...the pills do stink... but please read on... Others will state that krill oil isn't necessary and salmon fish oil is just as good. I say and know that the lower you go on the food chain the purer the quality of food is. Krill eats only phytoplankton, copepods, zooplankton and algae, but salmon will eat what is available to them in the ocean or water that they inhabit, and those food items are usually plankton or small invertebrates. Other species will eat small insects, if available, and some larger species will go after small fish. In addition, farm raised salmon has been found to have levels of toxins within it. True fact, krill will go an extremely long time without eating if they're regular food isn't available to them. I try my best to make wise choices as to what I eat and I sleep soundly knowing that pills comes from animals that also makes wise choices as to what they would eat.

I have been ordering these for a few years for my family of 5. The serving size pill is good. The amount of Omega 3 is good. The price fluctuates. Downfall is, the last 4 bottles have had a large amount of loose oil all over the pills. I have had to wipe down each pill. I thought they corrected the problem a few years ago, but it seems it's back & they are not correcting it quickly. I'm going to have to try a new kind if they do not correct this problem ASAP.

I put this on subscribe & save because I like it enough to continue using it. I've tried other fish oil products before but this one seems to have the most positive effect on my well-being, and does not break me out which has been an issue with other products. I can't say exactly why; maybe this is a cleaner product, or my system just likes it better. The noticeable benefits are subtle for sure and you do have to take it consistently for a while to notice them, but I think it's worth it. It's important to remember that a lot goes on behind the scenes in your body that you can't necessarily always "feel." I believe taking this benefits the functioning of the body beyond what is perceptible by the person and will continue to use it. I am docking one star because this smells horrific. I've never used fish oil that smelled nearly this bad. Fortunately, it does not seem to be much of an issue after taking, and I don't usually notice nasty burps or anything. It is very strong and sickening when you open the bottle; I've found it helps to put them in a daily pill organizer as being out of the bottle seems to make the smell dissipate. Overall, I would recommend this product.

Used this product to reduce triglyceride level that was at 500. One pill in the morning and one pill before bed for six months. Blood work shows triglycerides down to 167! Amazing results for me. Of course, everybody is different and what worked for me may not work for you. Do your research and make the best decision for you, consulting with your health care professional. I also took NAC for past three months along with this krill oil and would not be without either.

Dave Asprey recommended this brand of krill oil, and seeing as I don't have a million years to research, I decided to go with the recommendation of someone who does. The main complaint I read in these reviews was that it smelled fishy when they opened the jar. IT'S SHELLFISH OIL. A jar of 60 krill oil capsules is not going to smell delicious. I will say that I have not had "fish burps" since starting to take this product. Beyond these few observations, I can't speak to the scientific/pharmacological quality of this product.
