Really interesting. I did notice that you wouldn't get the high levels of A and D that you would in cod liver oil, but there appear from his article to be so many other advantages to the krill oil. I wonder if you could combine them. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Krill oil is very good---but different---I sometimes give it to my daughter in addition to the PRoEFA/EPA oils and I also add more GLA--as per her doctor since she haseczemas and such skin issues. So some kids do need different oil combinations for sure---but as far as liking the krill oil better--flavor -wise---I don't think so--it is even stronger tasting and if he can't swallow capsules----well it's really even more fishy as far as I am concerned. Good to give in addition to---but I wouldn't do it instead of---it's for a different purpose--The Pro EFA/EPA blends work well for kids with speech issues. They need the oils because of deficiencies and they need therapeutic doses--not just maintenance. You ca try adding some krill oil in the mix and see if he does better----but don't count on it being better for speech or less fishy tasting because it's not the case---it's just another variety of these good Omega 3s. Hope this helps. Elena ________________________________ From: supukrish <sylittleyogi@...> Sent: Mon, March 8, 2010 9:36:42 AM Subject: [ ] krill oil?

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 I too have been interested in adding krill oil to the mix. But I've held back, not wanting to give anything with toxins. Can anyone recommend a safe brand. The Whole Foods near my house only carries the Jarrow brand. Thanks! Debra in CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
