Orange Oximega Fish Oil Supplement, EPA & DHA, 60 Serv

**UPDATE AT BOTTOM** These are really great Omega 3 tablets, with high quality oils and I do feel better when I consistently take them. I don't eat enough fish, so I know I am falling short in this area, so these tablets help make up some of the difference. They are easy to take, with a slight citrus scent and flavor. However, I did experience fishy burps as they digested. I know fishy burps are common when taking a fish oil supplement, especially one of this density and strength. But, I thought it was worth mentioning because they do try to counteract the fishiness with the citrus flavor. I did have better luck when I timed taking them. If I took them a little while before eating a big meal, the burps were less, but they never disappeared completely. I feel the benefits of this supplement far outweigh the issues of fishy burps. This has become my regular fish oil supplement. **UPDATE 5/17/2022** I did want to see if taking this fish oil supplement would actually affect my health. Three months ago I had my blood tested. The blood tests included Omega-3 levels and also hs-CRP, which is a measure of inflammation in the body. When you think of inflammation, don't just think swollen joints or such; think about cardiovascular health, because this inflammation effects arteries, heart disease, and related issues. My initial inflammation measurement (as hs-CRP) was >10. Not good. I took 2 grams of these Omega-3 supplements every day for about 100 days. Now, I did also begin an exercise regimen and cleaned up my diet a bit (no fast food, etc.), but my blood tests after 100 days was a reduction in my hs-CRP numbers by almost 50%, to a 5.4. The measures of the amount of Omega-3 in my system was much higher as well. It's one thing to say that a supplement makes us feel better, but this was actual proof of improved health measurements.

I've read quite a few reviews and fortunately for me I have never had any "fish burps" from using these for the past 4 years now. I have alternated how many and when I use these. Currently I am taking 1 with each larger meal (3 total per day). Sometimes I'll forget one meal so it will end up being 2 per day, which is perfectly acceptable to me. I will admit that there have been a few times where I have not taken them for a couple weeks and I can not tell a difference at all. No weight gain/loss, no difference in the gym. I might feel a little more sore, but that could just be my mind, or it could have been an extra hard day at the gym. I continue to take them with my multi vitamin however believing that there is some good coming out of it. I guess in the end, I wouldn't expect miracles to happen just by taking this. But by including this as a supplement along with a healthy eating habit and exercise, you will be doing yourself good.

Great fish oil capsules. When I take supplements I do a lot of research before my purchase. Although there are many cheaper brands, with double the capsules than this container has, for a cheaper price, you have to think of the saying "You get what you pay for". In this case, I chose quality over quantity any day. The amount of actual fish oil you get from OxiMega is more than any other brand. I NEVER have fish burps, and have no problems swallowing these as their gel coated. Great for your heart, knees, joins etc.

Switched from optimum nutrition fish oil to Controlled Labs Omega Fish Oil for the higher amounts of EPA and DHA. I like how they actually show how much of each, along with the fatty acids, is in it. Any company that is willing to print the breakdown of ingredients and how much in each serving has my support. The citrus flavor is not really noticeable if you get any "fish burps" but that fishy taste isn't noticeable either, most likely from the enteric coating, so I guess it works. Just don't expect to burp and taste oranges... Great overall product, low priced. I will be purchasing again.

I only gave 4 stars because it says in the product description that it's supposed to be burpless. I burped a slight fish burp just now 20 minutes after taking. It's very slight and mostly citrus. Not enough to turn me off the product. Otherwise they are good. Taking 1 in the morning and 1 in the evening as compared to 2 at once may eliminate the fish burp. Good product.

As I've gotten older I've started having issues with pretty severe joint pain after heavy workouts. The truth is that my diet isn't the best and I lift much heavier weight than I should which and it was getting to be more than my body could handle. It was especially bad in my shoulder and the way I sleep at night only seemed to make it worse. It got so bad that I couldn't sleep through the night and I hurt all day. I was almost ready to give up working out entirely just to get it to stop. Since I didn't want to do that I did some research on supplements to help and found lots of positive recommendations for controlled labs triad vitamins and fish oil so I decided I would give them a try. Before going to these I was taking the GNC Sport multivitamins and no fish oil. I had tried fish oil in the past but couldn't deal with the fishy burps that came with it and I had given up on it. Fortunately I don't have the same fish burps when taking these. I've been taking these and the controlled labs vitamins for several months now and I'm definitely impressed with the results. The joint pain I was experiencing is gone. I can now actually sleep through the night without waking up in pain from laying on my shoulder and I'm back to doing heavy lifts again with no issues. Since I started taking the fish oil and triad multivitamins at the same time I can't really say for sure which is responsible or if they both help but I suspect the multivitamins is mostly to thank since some of the compounds in it are prescribed to treat joint inflammation and pain. Still I think the fish oil helps and as I said, I don't even get the fish burps with it.

Oximega fish oil is definitely one of the best that I have tried. This fish oil has a good amount of EPA and DHA per serving, more than most brands. However, there are some minor fish burps associated with this product, which may be a deal breaker for some. I didn't have a problem with it. On the other hand, Controlled Labs consistently lab tests their products for quality, and this fish oil has very small amount of contaminants like pcbs. http://www.controlledlabs.com/pdf/P2070_cert.%20of%20analysis%20total%20pcb.pdf
