Carlson The Very Finest Fish Oil, 700 mg, Omega-3s, Lemon, 240 Softgels

Doctors say to eat fish for your health. Why? because the fish oil is very nutrious, Various omegas etc. However, the mercury content of many areas of the ocean are poluted and full of it. Also, what if like me, you do not like fish. Then fish oil is the answer. However, fish oil can also be full of mercury and other contaminants depending on where the fish where caught. Is Carlson's the safest--I don't know, but it is one of the safest as Carlson tests the fish and the fish oil for contaminants including mercury. The capsules are large but they can be swallowed easily with water or juice. The review asks for taste of capsules. I do not know why you would want to bite into them. However, for those souls who do that, they come in lemon and orange flavored oils. I have accidentally bit into one on occasion, lemon, and it did not taste of fish which in my book is a plus.

Good product. Worth the money!

Es un producto de buena calidad, no tiene mal sabor. Me gusta porque es de pescado.

excellent fish oil. I have used it for many years

I tried this brand of fish oil because it was recommended to me at a health food store. I like it better than other brands I have tried - not sure why. It's not very "scientific" to say that I "just feel better" when taking the Carlson Labs fish oil, but that's what it comes down to. I tried others with a higher concentration of EPA and DHA, which meant that I could take less pills per day, but that approach led to digestive discomfort (perhaps the concentration of fish oils was too high for my constitution?). Anyway, this brand, and the amount of oils in each capsule seems to agree with me. The lemony taste is nice, and I rarely taste anything "fishy" - although, I like the taste of fish, so even if I do taste something "fishy," I generally think it's pleasant. I usually eat fish with lemon juice squeezed on it, so what's not to like?

I was told to take fish oil several years ago and did. I didn't know how much to take or what brand so I just bought the cheapest I could find. Fish burps ensued as did stomach upset. I then switched to krill oil which I thought was better than fish oil for cholesterol lowering and heart health. I didn't get fish burps but my LDL (bad cholesterol) went UP after several months of taking krill oil. I immediately decided to go back to fish oil but which brand? How much? I did a lot of research and found I never took enough when I was taking it and quality matters! I choose Carlson Labs brand because my doctor had mentioned it but also because I researched all sorts of facts on fish oil and this dose and the amount of Omega 3 is exactly what I needed. It was more expensive than other brands but I want the best I can find. I never, ever get fish burps. I can't taste any lemon as the soft gels are contained but it does the job. I don't get any stomach upset either. The softgels are pretty large (see photo) but slide down easily.I have no problem swallowing them. I also like that they don't smell like anything. No fishy scent when I open the bottle or put one in my mouth. I take one a day but the label says you can take up to four a day. I haven't been taking this long enough to know if it will help my LDL numbers which is why I went with 4 stars but I really feel I have gotten the best and I am happy not to have any side effects. I have a cholesterol test scheduled for two months (I will have been taking this product for three months by then.) and will report back and upgrade to 5 stars if I see improvement. I am very pleased with the lack of any fish smell or taste and the amount of Omega 3 I am now getting. I could have gone with cheaper stuff but I am sticking to this brand.

Delivery was fast. Great product for joint pain.

Great Product, I had no "fish oil burps" with this product. Shipping was quick and arrived safely.

Top quality fish oil as recommended by my naturopath. She told me many fish oil products are either already or on their way to being rancid, and the only brand she recommends is Carlson. Been taking it since 2007.

This is my first time using the finest fish oil capsule from carlson.nothing to complaint about .it has fone me good after my second week. I have a clogged artery since on it my sternum not painful and my breathing is not shallow.thank to the person who made a comment on fb about this capsule.i then tell myself to try. I find out it is easy to swallow. A bit high in price. It came from overseas I needed to wait customs clearance. We should have it in uk. For my health £47.00 it is a peace of mind.

The best fish oil for great heart health

It was recommended that I take fish oil for my dry eyes. I've only just started taking them but I'm optimistic that these will help. They come highly recommended

After a lot of researching these seem to be the best fish oils for my children ie the proportions o of 3-6-9 seem appropriate however it is difficult with the amount of information out there to define what is right. They are epxensive but most good quality omega oils are. My children are more than happy to have them - they chew them up as the capsules are huge (adult version) without complaining about the taste. (There are no RDAs for omega oils so was happy to give them the adults version - they just have 2 instead of the recommended adult dosage of 5 capsules per day.)
