I've had high cholesterol for several years and it's genetic. I eat right and exercise regularly, but have still had high cholesterol. I also have high blood pressure which is also genetic. I started taking Krill oil (1 gram a day or 1000 mg) because I've heard good things about it and I thought was a better alternative to Fish oil-- Fish oil always gave me bad indigestion and burps. After 3 month...

just a warning that I replaced my statins with Krill oil and 6 months later at doctor's check-up my cholesterol had shot up and I was put back on statins

I am a 53-year-old female. Krill oil made my arthritis in my hands feel better than it ever has - too bad it's made me so sick. In my fifth week of treatment, getting steadily more sick, day by day, with extreme gastrointestinal problems, I finally noticed that all of my symptoms had started with the Krill. I am on my 3rd day off and am finding that the symptoms are still lingering. I was very hopeful about this product but, after what I've been through for five weeks, I do not recommend it.

Schiff MegaRed Joint Care. I took just one pill and my knee arthritis disappeared and my hand stiffening also went away. After taking 3 capsules, I stopped because I got tired. I found that I can take one capsule every three days and it works. Because this is a blend product and not pure Krill Oil, I will next find a pure product and see if that component is the cure and not the blend.

I have been taking this for about 1 month, the last few days I have been feeling itchy, no rash that I can see but itchy all over my body, anyone else having this issue. I hope it is not the kril, because I really like what it is doing for me.

I have arthritis in two finger joints. They were very swollen and the pain was excruciating. After taking krill oil (one capsule a day) for 6 months, the swelling has subsided and so has the pain. They only hurt now if I overuse them or bump them. It took about 3 months for it to really start working.~ I am pleased with the results as I do not like to take pain meds. I used Clark's Nutrition Antartic Krill Oil

My feet hurt.. A lot! Maybe it's the beginnings of osteoarthritis (I'm 51 years young) but I have to fight this because one has to walk! Last week, after having run out of my Superkrill for a few weeks, I went to the dr to get a referral to a foot specialist, someone who would treat me as a patient, not a customer as I've been down that road, because the pain is increasing. I then scored some SuperKrill and two days later my pain is gone. Unbelievable! I've got an appointment in two months because they called me but In the meantime I think I'm okay. I feel like the tin man and the krill oil lubes me up from the inside!Read More Read Less

Hi guys after trying various remedies available on the market, a friend of mine suggested I try Krill Oil, so I figured what have I got to lose, the pain is unbearable at times and frustrating to say the least! Anyway I decided to give it a shot and have been taking a capsule every day for the last 3 days and I swear to you the results have been amazing! So anyone out there whose been diagnosed with eith RA or OA give it a try!!! althoug as said it may be expensive but well worth it! and Good Luck!Read More Read Less

Cholesterol levels have dropped from 220 range to 195 after 2 months use with no change in diet or exercise. Will continue with krill oil supplement to see if there is any relief from joint pain and stiffness with ongoing use.

I have arthritis in my hands, very painful. My baby finger on my right hand had been swollen and exceptionally painful for moths. It would keep me awake at night. Within a few hours of taking krill oil my baby finger was about half the size and my pain level was also about half. I have tried so many natural health remedies and none has helped me. I was truly amazed at the speed at which krill oil has worked for me, given my arthritis is quite bad in my hands and was getting worse. My baby finger was the worst, it was so swollen. Also I noticed I am calmer in general and as I am taking nothing else new, I attribute this calmness also to the krill oil. I have had no side effects. Read More Read Less

The krill oil (NKO) NOW Neptune Krill Oil (500mg) made me jittery, uneasy and on edge. I had major agitation and its not worth it. It took me a minute to realize it was the krill oil the dosage is to high (1000mg). I am going to attempt to take these in maybe 100mg.
