Is this a joke?
Krill oil can "rid the body of free radicals"?
Not to burst your bubble, but if you studied just a bit of organic chemistry, you would easily understand that the poly-unsaturated fatty acids (krill oil is) oxidize like crazy in the oxygenated environment of the body. Not only do they break down into acroliene (look it up on wikipedia), they cause a chain reaction of oxidation, damaging cell walls, DNA, RNA and all of the cellular organelles.
Here is just one study of hundreds that shed light on this great example of half-truths being marketed to the public.
J Natl Cancer Inst. 1984 Jul;73(1):185-91. Dietary lipid effects on the growth, membrane composition, and prolactin-binding capacity of rat mammary tumors. Cave WT Jr, Jurkowski JJ. "Our results indicated that 1) when the polyunsaturated lipid component (corn oil) of the diet exceeded 3%, it was the quantitative level of total lipid, rather than the level of polyunsaturated lipid alone, that best correlated with the observed reduction in tumor latent period; 2) when the polyunsaturated lipid content of the diet fell below 3%, there was a decrease in tumor incidence and an increase in the mean latent period...."
The effect of these fats and their cause of tumor growth is well documented. Just think, if they react with oxygen, this lowers the local oxygen concentration in the cells and the cells in turn begin lactic acid fermentation for energy instead of oxidative phosphorylation. Remember the research of Dr. Otto Warburg, nobel prize winner. When the oxygen concentration in the tissues decreases below a certain threshold, the cell becomes cancerous. When the oxygen concentration is raised above that threshold, it reverts to a normal cell.
Hype is not science. And unnatural products like oil pressed out of a fish or krill are not natural products that our ancestors ever consumed.
