Bottom Line: Fish Oil really works to prevent artery disease, namely heart disease and strokes. It’s not a bogus health food thing, it really works.
You need the EPA and the DHA from the fish. The other omega-3′s, 6′s etc. aren’t the same. Skip the flaxseed, etc. You want enough EPA and DHA, you don’t wanna be grossed out by the taste or get a fishy “repeat”, and you don’t wanna drink a bunch of unnecessary fat.
This stuff is good because: it has the right concentration of EPA/DHA: 1.3 g/teasp, which is high. And it tastes good. Even Nordic Naturals, a very respected company, has a similar EPA/DHA level, but tastes nasty.
Remember these supplements aren’t regulated. Go to consumerlabs.com, they test the supplements. This wasn’t tested, but Carlson capsules and cod liver oil were tested and passed, so i assume and hope this passes also.
That’s all you need to know. If you’re 30 or older, and you have high blood pressure and cholesterol like everyone else, take in at least 2 grams of EPA/DHA a day, your arteries will stay clean.

Fish oil capsules cause me to have fish oil after-burps (yuck!), which make me avoid taking fish oil at all. I prefer Carlson’s fish oil, but only because I learned the trick of how to swallow a teaspoon of it without gagging.
Have a glass of water or juice handy. Measure out your teaspoon of oil in a tablespoon sized spoon, so you have less chance of spilling it. Take the teaspoon of fish oil in to your mouth,let it gather under your tongue, but do not swallow it until you take your glass of water and wash it down. I take the fish oil before I eat breakfast. No fish burps later. You can do it. It is worth it.
The lemon flavor only partially masks the fishiness of the oil, but it is better than pure fish smell. I think Carlson’s fish oil is an excellent product, pure and fresh.

My wife began taking fish oil while she was pregnant. Pregnancy and lactation reduce the amount of DHA and EPA available to the mother as the body taps them for the baby’s brain development. This was implicated in things like post-natal depression and greater availability of these amino acids can also be beneficial to the baby. Fish oil may also help improve HDL/LDL ratios in people trying to improve their cholesterol, even when over-all cholesterol levels are low.
We started with another brand but switched to Carlson’s after my annual check-up and a conversation with my doctor. Carlson’s has more high quality DHA and EPA than other brands we researched and Carlson’s guarantees the screening of their fish oils for contaminants. It also tastes a lot better than any other brand we tried.

Americans consume a dangerously insufficient amount of Omega-3, which is a fat essential to good health but only found in fish oil and a few other foods. However, our intake of Omega-6, which is a fat found in corn, soy, sunflower and other oils, is too high. The ideal ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 should be 1:1, but the typical American’s ratio ranges greater than 20 to 1.
Omega-3 oils are essential to good glucose tolerance, and you need to remember that the worst fat of all is abundant in American diets – trans-fatty acids. Cells cannot get glucose or vitamin C inside when those cell walls are made by DuPont!
While Omega-3 can also be found in flaxseed, walnuts and a few other foods, the most beneficial form of Omega-3 – containing two fatty acids, DHA and EPA, that are essential to fighting and preventing both physical and mental disease – can only be found in fish. Unfortunately, fish often contains harmful mercury and other toxins, making it unsafe to consume in large quantities. Fish of all varieties from all water sources are now showing dangerously high levels of the tasteless but highly toxic metal, mercury.
Carlson’s fish oil is one of the few brands that includes extra vitamin E, so you don’t have to take extra vitamin E if you don’t want to. Finally, I really appreciate its lemony taste as opposed to the strong fish taste you get in other fish oils. I highly recommend it.

This product is superior. After using it for a couple of weeks now, I am amazed:
- No fishy taste. Slight lemon taste.
- No fish burps whatsoever.
- No need to swallow the usual submarine-sized softgels that most all other fish oils come in.
- It contains or exceeds the amounts of EPA, DHA and Omega-3 that my cardiologist at the Cleveland Clinic said should be taken in order to get any benefit from fish oils.
If you can’t wait to buy it via Amazon, you can visit Carlson Laboratories website for a list of local stores that carry it.
Overall, this product breaks the mold of the typical fish oil products in the market today.

I’d had to discontinue my use of regular fish oil capsules because they gave me not only the dreaded “fish belch” but also heartburn/indigestion. I’ve been taking this brand of enteric coated caps for several days now and have had no problems whatsoever. Shipping was quick, packaging was good. Very satisfied!

I’ve been very pleased with this product- easy to take, only need 1 or 2 per day, seems to have a good concentration of Omega-3s. My concern is that unlike most other fish oil pills, there is no information on how much EPA and DHA (specific types of Omega-3s) are in the pills. My understanding is that EPA and DHA are what is good for you, and the miscellaneous other Omega 3s are not as helpful. The figure of 684mg total Omega 3s seems high (good), but who knows how much of that is the helpful EPA and DHA omega 3s? Does anyone have any information on this?
Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega 3, a very expensive brand, contains 325mg EPA, 225mg DHA and 90mg “other Omega 3s” in each pill. These Kirkland pills have a little more total Omega 3 (684mg vs 640mg) but who knows if there is much or any of the beneficial Omega 3s.

I take regular blood tests as a factor of my employment. In the past, I’ve had high cholesterol and triglycerides. Three months ago I decided to start taking daily fish oil supplements. Two months ago I picked up this particular kind. A month ago I started taking two of these per day, based on the fact that a coworker told me about his daily intake as directed by a doctor.
So, what was the result so far?
My triglycerides dropped over 30% in 3 months!
My overall cholesterol dropped, while at the same time my good cholesterol went up.
And these are the medically measurable results. Other things I’ve noticed:
My mood has improved dramatically. It takes a lot to break me out of a good mood now.
My hair and skin both look and feel much healthier.
I seem to have slightly lower blood pressure as well, but I can’t be sure.
So, long story short: For me, these just plain _work_. And there is zero fishy aftertaste or burping. The price is right as well. You have nothing to lose, just beware of the warning labels as with all supplements.

This is a terrific product. I love the fact that it is enteric! No stomach trouble at all.
The cap are a bit big, but they are surprisingly easy to swallow.
