Believe it or not, I have had some VERY unpleasant fish oil caps. We went with the absolute highest quality at a good price we could find, but it is always helpful to get as much feedback as possible.

Some of the brands I have tried taste like rancid french hooker...umm, not that I would know what that tastes like...DAMN!!

That profile does look very similar to a local membership bulk provider's in house brand but your price does beat it by a $2.50 for the 1000

im really intrested on this as well . i take 6 caps ED of enteric coated fish oil and it has worked for me but the price is kind of high for fish oil im willing to try this ones, most of the pills that i have taken they give me the sh1ts/upset my stomach and give me stinky farts and fish burps.

Are you guys thinking about getting any liquid fish oil ? I'd rather take 1 tablespoon than all those softgels. I don't mind the burp either, it gives me an excuse to be rude when others annoy me.

The liquid can be flavored too. Vitamin shop is lemon lime and there's Barlene's brand that is orange flavored. Easier to take than pills for me.

I actually take Vitamin Shoppe's liquid fish oil. It's actually pleasant tasting !

May I recommend Carlson Nordic Fish Oil? It is rosemary lemon flavoured (awesomeness) and give no fish burps for myself or my family/friends that I've gotten to try it. Would love to add my FO to my next NP order.
I tried it and it's good but the price is pretty high when compared to other products. I even liked Carlson's Cod Liver Oil which my dad says used to taste like vomit when his mom made him take it as a kid.

My problem with fish oil is the question of purity. Dsade has severally confirmed that NutraPlanet's Bulk Fish Oil is of very high purity, so this should not be an issue. I will definitely try the Bulk Fish Oil, once my current stock is depleted.

I currently use Life Extension's Super Omega-3 EPA/DHA with 35%/25% ratio of EPA/DHA. Also contains sesame seed lignan extract, rosemary extract, and olive oil extract. A fairly advanced fish-oil supplement. Also relatively "expensive", in terms of cash outlay.

That's weird because my students have said the same thing LOL. They say I can be someone's best friend or worst enemy but I think I'm mellow enough :)

I think the rosemary is added to halt any peroxidation/oxidation of the product as well as the usual benefits once ingested.

I use 2-3 tablespoons of the Carlson's cod liver oil per day and it makes me feel alllllright.

dsade, can you post up the supplement facts, such as how many mgs of EPA and DHA per serving, serving size, how many grams of fat per cap, etc.?

Maybe post up something similar to this? Thanks

It's 180 EPA and 120 DHA AM07. It's 1,000mg per pill. That's about the same as most other fish oil products. Very few have higher EPA & DHA concentrations per pill but they jack up the price a little too much for that convenience.

Ok, cool. My NOW fish oil caps have the same amount of ingredients, so I'll be switching over to bulk fish oil caps.

Yeah, I have to fork out the higher price for NOW's Super EPA concentrated caps because my wife whines about taking too many pills.

with high quality fish oil I was hoping to see some reviews stating improved joint health, weight loss, or mood enhancement.....

Can't say "no fish burps" are much of a review... Could you guys be a LITTLE more specific?

FTR Carlson's reviews are full of such reports and has been considered the supplement's "high standard" for some time. Any one having tried both have anything interesting to compare/contrast?

This is Triglyceride FO and not Ethyl Ester, right Ds?

Correct.

Then again with fish oils, they are pretty much staple supps...everyone is well aware of the benefits. I was hoping to see more people playing with various dosing protocols, and reviewing in that context.

Staple as in where most people never come off and take the benefits for granted. I couldn't afford Carlson's for several weeks recently and man, did my mindset go downhill fast.

Absolutely...the mental and physical benefits (especially in the most common Western diets) are highly underrated...but at the same time well known.

Nobody should NOT be taking fish oil.

So how many do you all recommend taking per day? 10 caps, assuming a gram per capsule?

Doesn't seem to bad. I'd take about 8 a day or so. For $75 I get an entire year worth of Fish Oil :) - Some people drop that on a single Friday night out on the town.

No, the price is still excellent...but I am a perfectionist and I never rest trying to knock the prices down.

Fish caps normally give me fish burps, but since I started taking Nutra’s Fish caps at 10 pills per day split up with meals I’ve been getting no fish burps at all. And a few days ago I started taking DCP/CLA/Sesamin and taking the Fish caps between meals and still no fish burps. Also I got 1000caps for what I used to pay for less then half that many. I’ll definitely be getting my fish caps from Nutra from now on.

Thanks for the excellent feedback.

Even aside from personal experience, reports are overwhelmingly showing no fish burps.

Yeah...sort of like a metal shape that vibrates at the correct scented frequency...I guess you would call it a "Tuna Fork".

Super Epa by Now has more EPA and DHA than that, and the price isn't bad either.

120 for $12 with double content (say the Bulk equivalent of 240 caps.)

That would convert to 480 caps for $24...so with the NP brand you get OVER twice as much EPA/DHA for the same price.
