Great Fish Oil!
Very good fish oil! I've been critical of other fish oils in the past, but not this stuff is legit.
First, the basics. The pills are a good size and easy to swallow (I take all three (but usually 4) at the same time with a sip of water). They aren't enteric coated anymore because that has been found to hinder absorption as such, the bottle does have a slight fishy smell. They don't claim to be burpless as the enteric coating is what keeps the burps away but I have yet to have one and i'm halfway thought the bottle.
Now that the non-essentials are covered, into the important stuff. Why do you take Fish Oil? You take it for the Omega 3 Fatty Acids. Or more specifically, the EPA and DHA. According to the American Heart Association, you should be taking 1000mg to receive the full benefits of Omega-3s. So at 4080mg total with 1200mg of EPA and 900mg of DHA, this is some potent stuff!
This fish oil is purified through low temperature molecular distillation. Usually when you shop for fish oil what you’ll see is, “purified to remove mercury” well, there are more impurities in fish oil than just the heavy metals. Molecular distillation removes all types of impurities… heavy metals, PCB's and any other toxins. That is what you want, especially if you’re going to be taking fish oil for the long term (which you should).
While not the reason why I take it, after only a few weeks I can feel that my skin is softer. Something that I didn’t notice with the last generic brand of fish oil I took.
A good price for the amount of Omega 3s, I will be purchasing this again.
