Krill oil is better than fish oil, but can be expensive

I've tried a number of fish oil supplements over that past few years and enjoy the benefits of the omega 3 fatty acids. However, one of the side effects I used to experience with some fish oils is fishy breath and I would occasionally have fish burps. Switching to different fish oils would reduce or eliminate these symptoms.

After learning about the benefits of krill oils, I decided to try these due to the added benefits of the omega 3 fatty acids and the antioxidants. I found the majority of krill oil products do cost more than fish oil, but I think you're supposed to get better absorption from krill compared to fish oils.

I used to use MegaRed Krill Oil but I found that Swansons Vitamins sells their own brand for about $13.00 for 60 capsules and it works just as well. I don't get fishy aftertaste and I think these work just as good.
