Want Better Mental Clarity With More Energy and Less Stress?

Dr. Joseph Mercola

If you haven’t heard of Dr. Mercola yet, then let me introduce you. Dr. Joseph Mercola is highly respected in the functional medicine world. Functional medicine is where they look at the root cause of medical issues and try to fix the root cause of something. One analogy is “Do you have anxiety because you have a lack of Ativan in your body?” Instead of giving you a prescription, which they might do for immediate alleviation of symptoms, they want to find out what is causing the anxiety and then fix that problem.

Dr. Mercola has been around a long time and his website has been around since just after the beginning of the internet. He is highly respected on the functional medicine side of things, (as opposed to the conventional medicine side of things). A lot of famous doctors look up to him and I have learned to trust him over the years. He writes a lot of very informative articles and does a lot of great research.

Krill Oil

What I would like to talk about today is his krill oil. Omega 3s is the second biggest nutrient deficiency in North America right behind vitamin D. The list of reasons why omega 3s are so important is very long. It’s a lot like asking why water is so important. You can’t function without it and the less you have the worse you’ll function. They call it essential because you must get it from an outside source.

The reasons why the krill oil is superior to the fish oil is summed up in this infographic:
