There is a prevailing consensus among nutritionists that around 85% of Americans are deficient in omega 3 fatty acids (EFA's). Nothing is more important to achieving and maintaining optimal health, therefore, than adding a high quality source of EFA's to our daily diet.
EFA's, however, are not all created equal. There is growing evidence from placebo-controlled, double blind studies that krill oil--and especially Neptune Krill Oil--is preferable to fish oil in many ways.
This research shows that this remarkable source of EFA's has all of the following benefits:
1) Improvement in heart health, reducing heart damaging inflammation.
2) Improved concentration, memory, and learning efficiency.
3) Stabilization of blood sugar levels.
4) Healthier joints, with a decrease in pain associated with arthritis.
5) Reduction in the damaging effects of aging.
6) Improved development and functioning of the brain and nervous system.
7) Protection for cell membranes.
8) Improvement in cholesterol and other blood lipid levels.
9) Improvement in liver functioning.
10) Reduction in painful menstrual periods and PMS symptoms.
11) Improvement in immune system functioning.
12) Improve in mood regulation.
13) Improvement in skin health.
14) Improvement in subjective quality of life indicators.
Please note that in the above list, numbers 2, 6, 7, and 11 in particular have a high degree of relevance for anyone with MS.
