Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Great Product, but one star deducted for the slight bait and switch tactic they use to label their product line. Barleans makes a "kids" and "regular" lemon oil that are THE EXACT SAME, just the kids is packaged in a smaller bottle with a cute label and instructions to give less (5 ml vs 10 ml). You're paying $2 per 16 on Amazon just to be told the children's dose, which could EASILY be written on the adult lemon bottle. As you will see in my picture, I bothered to do the math, and they are the SAME EPA, DHA and Omega 3s per ML of Oil (as well as the same ingredient list). The best bargain is their Lime High Potency oil, which is 13% more expensive, but gives you 37%-40% EPA, DHA and Omega 3s per ML. This product is STILL using flim-flam marketing tricks though, because they cheat to make it look like 200% more instead of the true 40% more by increasing the dose size from 10 ml on the adult lemon to 15 ml on the adult lime! The lime is still worth the increase in price, BUT it is so shady that they change the dosing so they can claim on the front 720 mg vs 1500 mg! NOTE: All the reviewers claiming they can taste a fish after taste from the lime are having a psychosomatic response, you CANNOT taste it. I have done a blind taste test with my picky 6 and 3 year old daughters (and myself, though not blind) and we all agreed that all 3 taste like deliciously sweet and creamy lemon and lime (seriously, it is like melted lemon or lime sherbert!). The lime tastes the slightest bit more "artificial" when the flavor first hits your tongue, but there is no after taste. All they did in the lime to make it "high potency" is cut back on water (you can tell because the calories rise a proportionate 33% for the lime vs the lemon). If you are giving your children the "kids" lemon, stop wasting the $2 and just refill your old bottle with the grown up lemon, or better yet with a 50 / 50 mix of the lemon and lime till they don't notice and eventually switch them to the lime 100%. They are even the same color! My kids still excitedly remind me to give them their lemon oil whenever I forget, because they LOVE it, and they've been switched to the high potency lime for over a month now! LOL
