I have been told by many of my friends to switch to omega 3 krill oil. They have given me a list of benefits it has over fish oil. However, before I could make the switch, I decided to put some thought around my decision. By nature, I am a very skeptical person and I do my own research before I take any important decision like this. Therefore, I started digging as much information about omega 3 krill oil I could. Here is a summary for you. 1. If you look at Krill, they are at the bottom of food chain i.e. they are food for everything else above in the food chain. With the business that is flourishing on krill oil, the fisheries seem to sweep the bottom and catch most of the krill thus creating a misbalance in the ecological system. There is a burning need to have a regulatory agency that keeps a tab on the happenings in the industry. Today, there is no governing agency, which keeps a tab on the activities of companies, standards of products etc. Whereas, there are many government agencies who keep a tab on fish supplements. 2. We all know the importance of DHA fats and the debate here is that which one is the better source between fish and krill. If you look from an analytical angle, you will find that the level of DHA is very less in omega 3 krill oil; it is only 9% whereas fish oil consists of 25% of DHA. 3. Krill oil is heavy on the pocket as in comparison to the fish oil. The level of DHA present in both the sources can help us understand this fact. The daily recommended dose of DHA fatty acid is 500mg. one pill of Krill oil supplement consist of only 45mg of DHA therefore you need to consume 10 pills a day (5 bottles a month) to attain the desired level. Fish supplements on the other hand consist of 250mg of DHA per gel therefore you need only 2 pills a day (Just 1 bottle a month). To surprise you more one bottle of krill supplement comes around $25, and that of fish costs around $17. I leave it up to you; spend $125 per month for krill or $17 for fish supplements. After I found these three points, I was much convinced that what is good for me and for my pocket too. There may be some people, who are still in favor of omega 3 krill oil and who still need more convincing than this, but that is not our problem. You can present the facts only to a certain extent and then leave the rest to the understanding of the other person. In a nutshell, all I am trying to put across is that, omega 3 krill oil may be beneficial but it is not worth the money that you spend.
