Krill isn’t your average shrimp. (Photo: The Sun and Doves) Krill oil, logically enough, comes from krill, which are small, shrimp like crustaceans that inhabit the cold ocean areas of the world, primarily the Antarctic and North Pacific Oceans.

Alas, the common cold has got me. Fortunately, I expect to be rid of it in 48-72 hours. Like millions this time of year, I have the bug. But, thanks to Chinese and German friends and ...
