I am the pickiest person I know when it comes to fish oil and I want to dispel some the disinformation people have posted saying
I have reviewed almost every brand of fish oil and product available the internet. I am the pickiest person I know when it comes to fish oil and I want to dispel some the disinformation people have posted saying that it has no IFOS certification but you can read the 5- star perfect rating on the IFOS website consumer report for yourself and I have posted the link below. This could be a more potent fish oil but it is natural however to have a degree of other fats when you eat salmon and other fish that are high in omega 3's.<br />  As for those who are experiencing fishy burps or after effects you should know that fish oil goes rancid easily if exposed to heat. For this reason I always contact the provider if it is not the winter season and make sure they will ship it will cold packs to insure freshness. I have not ordered this product from amazon but have contacted amazon to find out if I could get Nordic fish oil shipped to me in this manner and they replied back and said yes!!! I have my fish oil sent to me 2-day shipping with ice packs from a trusty online store for a $25 shipping charge during the warm season and I never get rancid fish oil which will reek havok on a persons body.<br /><br />  I just got some Carlson Very Finest in yesterday and tasted it. It was absolutely the most non-offensive oil I have ever tasted and when I get capsules from any company I always chew one. If it tastes bad it goes in the garbage because it is not quality fish oil and that is the bottom line. Carlson has absolutely no bad taste or smell period. It you get some that does throw it away because it has gone bad.<br /><br />  Fish oil at the local health food stores has often been sitting there for quite some time and the chance of it being rancid is higher than ordering from an online store that moves much more product. Research these things for yourself for your own peace of mind. I did two tablespoons of the Carlson (2.6 grams!!) and no nasty burps. Very clean. Capsules probably do better in the system if they are made right. I like Nutrigold triglyceride formula a lot and have consumed up to 6- or more grams per day for many days with absolutely no burps or stomach upset. I and 100 pounds 5'5' and no problems so far. Either it's an excellent product or contains very little actual fish oil. I think it does however because it has a five star IFOS rating as well.<br /><br />  Carlson is a reputable brand and seems to have their act together. I will continue to use it for a couple of months and will submit another review if I have any problems. Nutrigold triglyceride formula is purer. Hey, it's common to see high Omega 3 content in ethyl-ester fish oil formulas but there are a certain number of scientist who are saying that the triglyceride formulas are assimilated by the body much easier. It may be true. If I was going with an ester formula and wanted to get the biggest bang for the buck I would be buying Dr Vita's product. I don't like soy and other gmo junk in my oil and so that means I shun most brands and their products. Pure, triglycerides with 5-star IFOS rating is all I will go with and Carlson's Very Finest Meets the mark!!!!!!!!!! The cost really good and if you want purer get their Med oil. It's loaded!!!!!!! I would go with Nordic If it was a bit cheaper. See Yourself Well is another I would go with but only the triglyceride version. Nutrigold is my favorite so far and I have never felt better in the last decade than when I consumed 5 or more grams daily. Not the triple strength! TRIGLYCERIDE!!<br /><br />  On an end note, Nutrigold claims on their website that their is not much of a difference between triglyceride and the ethyl ester formula, but that could be because they offer both kinds and want to sell plenty of both. I get it from Pure Formulas it is not available on Amazon and Pure Formulas ship it to me in a styrofoam cooler with ice-packs for 25-bucks two-day shipping. Amazon may offer this option as well and I may switch over if they  can beat the cost and match the freshness i'm getting. So far I like the Carlson a lot. If I can get up to 3-grams with no stomach upset at all I will give it a five star rating. So far, I'm giving it 4 stars for taste and price. It showed up unrancid and very clean so that's a big plus because I think the vast majority of what is being passed of as fish oil Is bad quality if not rancid and dangerous to consume. Walmart, Walgreens etc.... carry crap full of poisonous ingredients with absolutely no reason for those ingredients to be in those products but to harm. Damn near all of them contain soy!!!! That is unacceptable in my book. They could use water, they don't need gmo fillers in fish oil capsules. These companies are suspicious to say the least and have sold out to the worst enemy the food and suppliment industry has ever faced- MONSANTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shop wisely, live a long, clean, healthy, life.  Get clean potent products before the big corporations buy every single one of them out and taint every single product with poison because that is exactly what they plan to do and are doing right now. Thumbs up Carslon!!!!!!!! http://www.nutrasource.ca/ifos/files/ifos%20jr%20carlson%20vffo%20-%2040379101.pdf
