Researching the difference's between regular Omega 3and Krill oil I discovered a key ingredient in the latter is Astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant with many beneficial properties.
Not wanting to purchase ultra expensive KO I thought a more cost effective alternative is to purchase just the Astaxanthin and supplement with regular Omega 3.
Rsearching Astaxanthin further I uncoveredsome other 'potential' side effects
'Other potential side effects include increased skin pigmentation (astaxanthin is the compound that gives flamingos, salmon, and shrimp their pink color) and hair growth, hormonal changes, lowered blood levels of calcium, decreased libido, breast enlargement in men, and changes in blood tests.'

Actual dosage level was not indicated but other than NOT using this supplement, can anyone suggest possible ways to compensate for these possible side effects?
Has anyone reading this ever experienced any of these?
