I’ve been trying to eat healthier over the last few years and I’ve been able to lose 60+ pounds and keep it off. Part of eating healthier includes vitamins and supplements because there are some foods that I prefer not to eat. I’ve never been a fan of seafood, but by taking Krill Oil I’m able to replace some of the nutrients that I’m missing.
One of the nutrients that is found in Krill Oil is Omega 3 fatty acids, which are reported by WebMD to boost heart health and reduce triglycerides. One of the reasons I’m picky about the kinds of supplements I take is I don’t like the dreaded “fish burp.” I was pleasantly surpised that after using Krill Oil for two weeks, that I don’t get that dreaded “fish burp.”
Everest Nutrition reports that their Krill Oil contains a rich supply of astaxanthin, a red pigment found in aquatic livestock such as krill, shrimp, lobster, mussel, crab and other seafood sources. Astaxanthin is known as a very powerful anti-oxidant which can help rid the body of free radicals that contribute to various diseases and illnesses. Astaxanthin is also known for its anti-aging capabilities.
My thoughts about Krill Oil
Well, I love that I don’t get the “fish burp.” 😉 Even better than that, I’ve become more focused over the last two weeks. I’m able to concentrate better, instead of being a little scattered. I have high triglycerides, so I’m interested to see the change when I go to my doctor to have my annual physical and blood tests. I’m going to continue taking Krill Oil over the next few months and I’ll let you know how it goes.

That is so awesome– 60 lbs!! Good for you!! 🙂 It can be so hard.
It took about a year, Jenn. I actually used the Weight Watchers online program. I’d still like to lose another 20 pounds, but I’m perfectly happy where I am now. I saw a picture of myself and couldn’t believe what I let happen, so I turned to WW for support. I’m so glad I did.
I try to remember to take Vit D but I should take others too.
I take a multivitamin and vitamin D3 fish oil once in a while.
I take a multivitamin, B12, extra C, Tumeric, green tea extract, probiotic and CoQ10. I’d like to start taking fish/krill oil for the omega 3.
I am an advocare girl myself, omegar 3, multivitamin, probiotic
Hi Sherry! New fan here. I’m impressed with your weight loss journey. Good for you my dear. You had a plan & stuck with it. That’s so hard to do with crazy schedules. I am into fitness, health, nutrition & over all well being. I take lots of different bottled herb formulas for their antioxidant properties as well as I also just started growing my own herb garden so I never run out of my herb benefits. I’m a vegetarian now, so I mix lots of smoothies with frozen fruit & protein mixes. The one I use has an abundant of vitamins, minerals, berries & veggies extracts, as well as plant nutrients like seaweed & kelp. Keep up the great work! I was also taking krill but stopped. It’s time to start again. Would love to win this! 😉
Glad you stopped by to visit, MissMing! Thank for your kind words. It was a journey and I’m glad I took it. I’d love to start an herb garden myself, I should really look at doing that. Good Luck with the giveaway.
I take a multivitamin, calcium, and vitamin D!
I take Vitamin A and Centrum Burst 🙂
I’m still taking my prenatals
biotin
I try to remember calcium and vitamin D. I love that Krill oil doesn’t give you fish burps.
That’s one of the things I like about the Krill Oil, no fish burps! Plus, I feel more focused.
