Krill oil, an extract squeezed from tiny ocean-bound invertebrates and sold as a nutritional supplement, may help your body with antioxidants that keep cells healthy, preventing chronic disease and possibly guard against aging diseases such as dementia. Krill oil may also may help reduce painful inflammation and help with arthritis pain and lower cholesterol, according to some health authorities who acknowledge, however, more testing needs to be done. What ever your ailment, it is best to consult a doctor before you take the stuff that is typically found for sale at health food stores or even online. Krill oil doesn't mix well with blood thinners, such as aspirin, and other similar pain killers. Moreover, krill oil shouldn't be used by anyone who is allergic to seafood or who has a bleeding disorder. Krill oil may also result in diarrhea. So tread carefully if you're considering krill oil. The information here is by no means thorough and scientific studies on the subject of krill oil are spotty.
