not fishy July 30, 2010 M. OKANE (Torrance, CA USA) Lemony instead of fishy is the achieved aim. Not cheap, but not unpleasant. I'm sold.
good for you July 30, 2010 jessreviews1 These fish oil pills are better than any other brand I've had as far as not tasting fishy. They do still occasionally cause "lemony" burps, but not very often. When I take these religiously each day I can breath better when I run (I have exercise induced asthma). I would recommend them to anyone.
Concentrated, High Quality Supplement July 4, 2010 HTBK (San Francisco, CA USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Like green tea and many other supplements that have lax labeling regulations, it can be difficult to find a fish oil that actually delivers what you need instead of a bunch of filler. This delivers what you need.
As you begin to research fish oils, you'll learn that you have to check the label - you can't just rely on the mg on the label, as manufacturers will list the mg of "fish oil," not the mg of what you're really after - Omega 3s, especially EPA+DHA. Basically everything else is just filler and a meaningless number. For example, Kirkland Signature Natural Fish Oil Concentrate with Omega-3 Fatty Acids - 400 Softgels, a lower cost competitor, advertises "1000 mg," but when you look at the label, you'll see that it only provides 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA - aka 300 mg of what you actually want. What's everything else in that pill? As far as what we're concerned, junk.
Nordic Naturals advertises 1000mg, and actually provides 1280mg Omega 3s per serving - 650mg EPA, 450mg DHA, 180mg other Omega 3s, and 56mg Oleic Acid (Omega-9). The company is also committed to sustainable fishing practices and exceeds the strict Norwegian Medicinal Standard for quality, ensuring lower peroxides, heavy metals, dioxins, and PCBS - we do not have any governmental fish oil quality standards in the US.
For reference, I take this product with GNC MEGA MEN Multivitamins 180 Tablets (EXP:11/2011) and Green Tea Mega EGCG™ (100 veggie capsules). It's a great regimen and I've seen real results.
Great Product May 18, 2010 Suthiporn Angsuwaree It has been proved that fish oil can lower cholesterol. Nordic Naturals is one of the best among fish oil brands on the market. I think I can't go wrong with this brand. Love it.
Ultimate Omega May 17, 2010 Bonnie Williams Works well for me since I need at least 2000 mg of AHA and DHA each day. This product has it all.
