Best fish oil I found!Feb 06, 2004
I am taking fish oil while pregnant on the advice of an allergist. Taking fish oil while pregnant has recently been linked to lower rates of allergies in children who have a family history. These were the only brand I found that stated no detecable levels of mercury - which is critical while pregnant. My doctor also recommened freezing them - it cuts down on the fishy after taste.

Carlson Super Omega-3 ReviewOct 27, 2010
By Michael J Johnston Recommended by my ophthalmologist, these tabs have improved my eyes and overall health. Amazon was cheaper than buying direct from the manufacturer in my home town. Easy to find on their site and delivered within 3 days.

Great Fish Oil!Jul 07, 2008
By Jilby Besaw I am very impressed with this product. The price is right and it certifies that there is no mercury in it which is important for me since I am pregnant! My doctor wanted me to take fish oil because is it great for the baby's brain development etc. but advised to get one with no mercury...and this one is great. Definitely recommend it.

Paid too muchJun 04, 2010
By Z. Stanley Several times prior to this I have ordered this product from Amazon.com. This time I was in a rush and didn't realize until much later that I had over paid. If I had shopped around on Amazon.com I could have purchased the same product for much less. Shop around before you push the check out key.

Certified pure, mercury free, easy to swallow/digest, no fish smellApr 09, 2012
By A. Dent
"Aragorn"
Not being a medical doctor or a nutritionist I am not going to make any claims on the benefits of taking this dietary supplement other than stating that, after months of ingesting 2-3 of these 1000mg soft gels daily I continue to be in good health and I am not aware of any side effects. Am I in better health than I would have been had I not taken these? I don't know. That's what medical studies are for and one may trust them or one may not. However, getting back to this product and evaluating IT, this is what I can state as I can compare it with the generic supermarket brand I used to take in the past.
- it's more expensive but not A LOT more expensive - the gels are softer - makes them easier to swallow - the gels are a bit smaller - makes them easier to swallow - unlike the generic brand, they do not seem to stay in my stomach for a long time, feeling like I swallowed a marble - certified by some FDA-registered lab(?) to be pure, potent and free of mercury, cadmium, lead, PDB's and a bunch of other contaminants - no easily detectable fish smell
To conclude: this product appears to deliver the fish oil at a high level of purity, free of contaminants and packaged as a gel that's easy to swallow and digest. This is what I've been using for quite a while and I am happy enough to be staying with this brand for now.
