Best Krill Oil, July 31, 2009
By LongLiveNKO from Washington, DC area

Value:		3 out of 5
Quality:		5 out of 5

Satisfaction:		5 out of 5

"Fish oil is not for me due to fish burps. I tried this krill oil and had no such problems. Then I tried to save some money by buying NSI's KriaXanthin Antarctic Krill Oil. What a mistake. That stuff gave me awful fish burps. I switched back to Source Naturals NKO and the fish burps are gone. Too bad it costs so much more, but well worth the price if you are like me and can't stand the fishy aftertaste of fish oil and cheaper krill oil products."

"I was given the advice by a holistic vet to give NKO to my dog to help her to have more Omega 3's in her diet to help her grow hair back and have less itching due to several allergies we are dealing with. It takes several weeks to see the results, but I trust this item will help as the Omega 3's are really high and help properly balance the Omega 's in her diet."

"I use this as a supplement for the Omega oils. I find these oils help to keep my ears clear of ear wax. That is no joke. It makes a huge difference. I use hemp powder for the same reason. I don't have problems with my ears and I find the ear wax, the little that I have, actually softening and easy to get out. So I love the supplement. If I run out of my hemp powder I am using this. The idea isn't a new one. Omega's help with ear wax so those with hearing problems ought to try this as it is an excellent way to get those tough harden waxes soften and going away when showering. Those people that I know who don't use hemp or fish oil or krill oil have problems with ear wax. And some of those people have seriious hearing problems. I've read about the idea from others so I tried it and it is really amazing stuff. It is hard to have Omega oils in one's diet so this is a great way to do it."

"This is an excellent way to get your oil ratios in balance. Krill oil is easier for your body to assimilate than fish oil. I love this product. Fishy odor when you open the bottle but NOT after taking product. Krill doesn't cause the burping up that fish can, so both my famlily members that had previous problems are taking this now."

"I have read some of the previous reviewers who commented on the strong fish smell and was very surpised. I haven't noticed an odor at all. I do keep my bottle in the refrigerator, so perhaps that is why. I too learned about krill oil on Dr. Mercola's web site and purchased these because they were less expensive. I am totally satisfied with this product and would recommend it to anyone."

"I read some positive information about the benefits of using Krill oil instead of Fish oil and decided to try it. I was disappointed solely because of the odor of these small gel capsules. They do have a very fishy smell thus I would not recommend them to anybody who like me has a strong nose for odors. I switched back to Fish oil."

Helps normalize Lipids, January 15, 2007
By klutzo

"This is the only product of the many I've tried that has actually changed my lipid numbers, raising my HDL a small amount, lowering my LDL and total cholesterol a lot, lowering my fasting blood sugar back into normal range, and dramatically lowering my triglycerides, despite cheating on my diet, and even though I had my blood tested after taking the product for only one month!"
