Learn about Krill oil
Krill oil is an omega-3 fatty acid that contains numerous health benefits. Studies show it helps lower C-reactive protein, cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar. It's also a natural anti-inflammatory that helps reduce the risk of heart disease and atherosclerosis and may reduce pain associated with rheumatism and osteoarthritis. A 2016 study showed that krill oil can inhibit the growth of colon cancer cells.
Krill oil contains fatty acids similar to fish oil. These fats are thought to be beneficial that decrease swelling, lower cholesterol, and make blood platelets less sticky. When blood platelets are less sticky, they are less likely to form clots.
An alternative to omega-3 fish oil
Krill oil has so many health benefits that many people use it as an alternative to omega-3 fish oil. Krill oil appears to be more potent, equivalent to higher doses of omega-3 fish oil. Krill oil is often used to reduce CRP inflammation, or as an alternative to cholesterol and triglyceride-lowering medications. It is also commonly used to help reduce pain associated with arthritis and to help treat dry eyes and skin. If you are taking blood thinners, talk to your doctor before adding krill oil to your supplements. Finally, supplements should never replace healthy, balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables. The usual dose of krill oil is 500mg to 2,000mg per day. We'll combine krill oil with astaxanthin for additional anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits.
Krill oil is a supplement that is rapidly gaining popularity as an alternative to fish oil. It is made from krill, a type of small crustacean consumed by whales, penguins and other sea creatures. Like fish oil, it is a source of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), types of omega-3 fats found only in marine sources. They have important functions in the body and are linked to a variety of health benefits.
Both krill oil and fish oil contain the omega-3 fats EPA and DHA. However, some evidence suggests that the fats found in krill oil may be easier for the body to use than those from fish oil, since most omega-3 fats in fish oil are stored in the form of triglycerides.
Where Krill Oil Wins
On the other hand, a large portion of the omega-3 fats in krill oil can be found in the form of molecules called phospholipids, which may be easier to absorb into the bloodstream.
Omega-3 fatty acids like those found in krill oil have been shown to have important anti-inflammatory functions in the body.
In fact, krill oil may be even more effective at fighting inflammation than other marine omega-3 sources because it appears to be easier for the body to use.
What’s more, krill oil contains a pink-orange pigment called astaxanthin, which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
Because krill oil seems to help reduce inflammation, it may also improve arthritis symptoms and joint pain, which often result from inflammation. In fact, a study that found krill oil significantly reduced a marker of inflammation also found that krill oil reduced stiffness, functional impairment and pain in patients with rheumatoid or osteoarthritis.
Additionally, researchers studied the effects of krill oil in mice with arthritis. When the mice took krill oil, they had improved arthritis scores, less swelling and fewer inflammatory cells in their joints.
Research has shown that fish oil may improve blood lipid levels, and krill oil appears to be effective as well. Studies have shown it may be particularly effective at lowering levels of triglycerides and other blood fats.
Several studies have found that taking omega-3 or fish oil supplements can help decrease period pain and symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), in some cases enough to decrease the use of pain medication.
It appears that krill oil, which contains the same types of omega-3 fats, may be just as effective.
