User Reviews for krill oil

Started taking krill oil, 300 mg, in Jan, 2011. In March had blood tests, no change in Cholesterol levels. Started having pain in toes in March, by April second toe swelled up and got red very sensitive, pain 9 over 10. Diagnosed as gout, indomethacin Rx cleared up partly, but still hurts red and hurt 2 over 10. Last Friday had shrimp dinner and toe got much worse. Had been avoiding all food like shell fish and beef that can cause gout. Top one on list of foods that cause gout is shrimp. Krill is shrimp! We need more study to be sure krill oil OK to take in older people and those especially subject to gout. Read More Read Less

IM AM A PHARMACIST AND HEARD OF THIS FROM A FRIEND WHO HAS A DAUGHTER IN DO SCHOOL IN TENNESSEE. ON DAY 14 TREATMENT I WOKE THAT DAY AND EVERY DAY SINCE WITH NO MORNING STIFFNESS FROM MY OSTEOARTHRITS. IM CONTINUE TO TAKE IT AT A DOSE OF 2 CAPSULES THREE TIMES A DAY AND MY SHOULDERS ARE IMPROVING GREATLY. A MUST TRY. I GET MY LAB RESULTS BACK IN A WEEK AND CANT WAIT TO SEE WHAT THEY SHOW.

I am taking Purity krill oil to improve brain function, memory, etc. Nowhere in this article does it list that as a reason to take krill oil. Please clarify!! Thanks

I never write reviews but had to share. I started taking NKO (Neptune Krill Oil) last month to help lower cholesterol. Within 2 weeks I noticed the pain in my neck from a whip lash injury last year was FINALLY gone. It has to be the krill oil. I've done PT, chiropractor, massage therapy and of course rest and have lived with pain everyday. Now virtually none. I also was surprised I had NO cramps with my period this month. Last 2 months cramps were worse than my labor pains. This month, not even a slight cramp. I pray to God they deem this vitamin safe to take FOREVER!!!!Read More Read Less

A knee which has bothered me since removal of a meniscus (5 yr. prior) is now much less painful to walk. I also note that my vision has improved to the point that I can read words on TV without my glasses. My lipid studies have been excellent in the past year that I have used Krill oil. I had a very painful stiff neck that was only minimally relieved with Chiropractor and acupuncture treatments--that is now all but gone.

There needs tobe more reserch on Krill, but I have to say it is a miricle for me. Take it twice a day faithfully and I have had such improvement with the pain and arthritis.

good stuff!!!!!!!!

I took this at the recommendation of a friend, same age, and fellow runner who like me, has mild arthritis and joint pain. Joint pain and inflammation has subsided along with treatment. Minor side effects of gas, and occasional loose stool, but minor. Other side effects include very positive Cholesteral improvements and Triglicerides improvement. Blood pressure continues to get lower. I've also lost weight and improved my fitness training, so could be a side product of healthier fitness and diet. However, it is working for me, so am giving Krill some credit.Read More Read Less

I began taking Krill because og the smaller size compared to fish oil, and was overwhelmed by the reponse I received. I was suffering from severe inflammation caused by arthritis in my left wrist, it was so severe that it was causing carpal tunnel syndrome and I was scheduled for surgery. No Longer, with the inflammation 95% reduced, the carpal tunnel symptoms went away. I was totally surprised by the results and highly recommend this product.

since ive started taking mega red, i have been experiencing itching on my arms mostly. has there been any other people having this reaction???

It made me sick to my stomach & had horrible stomach cramps with diarrhea.

good

good

Started taking MegaRed krill oil caps. Nightmare, and profuse sweating from day one. Four days and I'm quitting the caps. To sit and sweat over nothing is disgusting to say the least, and now leg cramps. Sounds like a good product, but at 63, perhaps it's too strong for me.
