Krill Oil - A Good Way To Alleviate The Symptoms Of Arthritis
Many sufferers of arthritis are aware that omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil can reduce and lessen the severity of arthritis symptoms. Studies show that krill oil has the same properties, but that they are stronger.
The main difference between the omega-3 in krill oil and in fish oil is that the omega-3 in keill oil is in the form of phospholipids, which are easier for the body to use than the triglycerids in fish
Triglycerides and phospholipids are digested and absorbed in different ways in the small intestine. Omega-3 phospholipids follow simpler digestion and distribution routes than omega-3 triglycerides in the human body.
Specifically, the research on krill oil has established with a high level of certainty that a daily dose of 300 mg of krill oil will quickly (within a few weeks, up to a month) both reduce inflammation and alleviate the symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. The studies have been done with a daily intake of krill of 300 mg. That is less than even one capsule of krill oil, which usually contains 500 mg of krill oil. One researcher commented: "It seems likely that the effect would be even more pronounced with a larger daily dose than 300 mg".
Phospholipids are vital in protecting membranes from free radical attack and toxic injuries. The composition of phospholipids in krill oil appears to offer that protection in an optimal way.
In addition, krill oil contains the powerful antioxidants astaxanthin and canthaxanthin. The former appears to be the most potent antioxidant found in nature, and prevents the activities of the harmful free radicals. Practically no other food or supplement contain astaxanthin or canthaxanthin, and these unique antioxidants are instrumental in making krill oil an effective and powerful way to get some relief from the symptoms of arthritis.
All these factors, including the antioxidants and the phospholipids, contribute to make krill oil a potent weapon against the painful Symptoms Of Arthritis.
By Mary DeDonder -
what kind of knee injury would be very slow healing. My daughter injured her knee 2months ago. We went to?
and orthopedic doctor and she said it was a tear in teh quadriceps. But she also didn';t do an MRI. My daughter is very physically active and loves to jump around , I tell her shes not supposed to until it's fully healed. So i think she keeps reaggravating whatever injury she has, the swelling has gone down somewhat but not fully in the 2 months. SHe has no symptoms of arthritis or lyme disease- any ideas, it might be an injury that is worse than the doctor said. any idea? The doctor thinks it should be healead already, but she doesn;'t know children h ow they wont; listen and not run on it!
does it at all sound like a meniscus injury, it doesnt; hurt to walk on it but it did when she first injured it. It hurts to stretch it.
