Summary

This small pilot study tested whether taking krill oil supplements could help older adults with long-term joint or back pain. Researchers enrolled 40 participants aged 60 and over to see if the supplement was practical to study and might improve pain levels and physical function. The goal was to gather information to design a larger, more definitive future trial.
