Pure Krill Oil with DHA & EPA Omega 3's
Rhodiola Rosea

Prolific Health Pure Krill Oil with DHA & EPA Omega 3's

Purchase on Amazon

Krill Oil is great for those looking for a source of Omega 3 fatty acids DHA and EPA that outperforms plain fish oil. By delivering Omega 3s, Krill Oil supports heart, brain, joint, and immune system health. An antioxidant that has been linked to improving endurance, skin health, joint pain, heart health, and inflammation.

At my son's last doctor's appointment they checked his cholesterol. They do that with teens now I guess. It was on the boarder, so the doctor recommended him taking a fish oil supplement, along with eating more nuts & other foods to help. I already take Krill Oil for inflamation, but I was almost out, so we tried this brand. [[ASIN:B013S9FPCW Pure Krill Oil with DHA & EPA Omega 3's 770mg per serving - 60 Liquid Softgels- Sustainably Sourced and Third Party Tested for Maximum Freshness - Made in the USA; 100% Money Back Guarantee]]

He's been taking this for quite a while and has had no effects, and no problems. I can't say it's helped his cholesterol, but how are you going to without having another test? The softgels are of an OK size, and don't smell. They on't cause any body odor, bad breath, or have a fishy taste or give you fishy burps.

The bottle says take one softgel a day. I honestly know nothing of the company, Prolific Health, and their practices. It does say it is made in the USA. So far we've had no problems, and they are easy to take.

Ingredients: 100% pure Krill Oil (770 mg total per serving) Omega 3 fatty acids DHA and EPA. No artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, or preservatives. GMO-Free.

Directions:  As a dietary supplement, adults take 1 softgel daily with an 8 oz. glass of water.

88Herbs Rhodiola Rosea

Purchase on Amazon

Rhodiola Rosea is an extremely potent and effective adaptogen - a class of herbs which work holistically on the body, bringing it back to its peak state of homeostasis. Rhodiola is probably the most energizing of all the adaptogens. Many people prefer rhodiola to coffee for a morning "perk up" because it gives a longer lasting and smoother type of energy, as opposed to the jittery feeling of excess caffeine. Rhodiola also helps with mental focus and concentration.

The main reason I got this is it is supposed to help symptoms of stress. I have moderate anxiety, and so much stress even though I try not too. I would rather substitute my anti-anxiety meds with a natural herb if possible. Although diet & exercise are excellent for keeping my depression & anxiety at bay, sometimes it just isn't enough. Sam-e didn't work for my mood (but did help my back pain), and I can't take St. John's Wort. So, I thought I'd try this. It's different. It's Rhodiola Rosea Extract. However, you are not supposed to take this at the same time as anti-anxiety meds, and I just went back on them. I was thinking about waiting until I wean myself off in a few months, but there is one other major roadblock for me. Like St. John's Wort, you are not supposed to take these with birth control. I take BC for endometriosis & will not stop taking hormones just to be able to try this. I did not read or find any of this information in the description of the product before ordering.  So if you are on anxiety meds, have a bipolar disorder, or are on hormones, ask your doctor before ordering this. This was a good idea, but obviously it's not for me.

This is a 200mg veg capsule. There are 90 capsules in the container. The directions have you taking 1-2 daily. This is distributed by BB&G Health Corp in Canada.

And even though it gives a powerful boost of energy, it actually helps people with depression, anxiety, and their moods. It's a very pleasant form of energy rather than a "nervous" form.

Rhodiola rosea has a wide range of uses such as: increasing mental and physical energy, improving mental focus and concentration, reducing stress and anxiety, reducing depression, improving stamina and athletic performance, and increasing sex drive and sexual performance.
