just keep in mind that your thyroid gland controls your metabolism
but can't if it's deficient in vitamin D

Mushrooms can absorb vitamin D same as skin (gill side up)
even if its artificial light and retain it for a long time.

fat cells are water soluble so the more water you drink the more fat cells you pee out.

try not eating after 4 pm - 5 pm and if you do
make sure its highly digestible

sleeping is important for many reasons but you don't sleep well
when digesting a heavy meal as that is allot of work

In regards to the fish oil (or other sources of omegas), what is it about the Krill oil that makes it preferable?

Less chance of contaminants? Less ecological impact? Just curious on the reasoning.

krill oil was absorbed 1.68 times better than fish oil.

from a comparison of the oil’s antioxidant capacity (ORAC). Krill oil has a few antioxidants like astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is what makes it red. It’s also what makes salmon so colorful.
Fish oil has, well, hardly any antioxidants.

people who took krill oil had 1.5 times more Omega-3 in their cell membranes than those who took fish oil.

blue whales the largest animal on Earth are sustained for 8 months after feeding exclusively on krill during the summer.....(4 months)

Thanks. Astaxanthin is amazing stuff- did some work with it in college. Interesting about the absorption rate.

FYI, Walgreens has BOGO for most of their vitamins right now... 2 1000mg/30ct bottles of the oil for $14.99- not bad
