Product Description
The health benefits of eating cold-water fish are robust, yet concerns remain about contaminants found in wild and farm-raised fish. This should not stop consumers from including fish in their diet, as the longevity advantages of consuming cold-water fish instead of foods like beef are substantial. A recent study found that even vegetarians that include some fish in their diet fare better than strict vegetarians.
An advantage to higher EPA and DHA fish oil concentrations is smaller sized omega-3 capsules. The addition of this new Alaskan-derived fish oil to the Super Omega-3 supplement group enables the same high-potency EPA/DHA to fit into slightly smaller capsules for easier swallowing.
From supporting heart health and brain function to balancing the inflammatory response, there is no debating the broad-spectrum benefits of omega-3 fatty acids.
There are hundreds of fish oil supplements on the market. Only one incorporates lifesaving findings to provide omega-3 and olive fruit extracts, along with sesame lignans, in a family of formulas called Super Omega-3.
The International Fish Oil Association (IFOS) is an independent organization that tests fish oils to determine their overall safety and quality. A Five-Star Rating indicates fish oils have been tested to meet strict standards of quality as determined by EPA and DHA content, and for purity to rule out contamination with heavy metals, radiation, oxidation, and organic pollutants such as PCBs and dioxin.
Alaskan-derived fish oil enjoys the same Five-Star Rating mandated for all fish oils contained in the Super Omega-3 family of supplements.

Easy to swallow. I had zero after taste and zero burping after taking. The pills were not stuck together as some mentioned and they did not smell fishy or bad.
I recommend these.
I have struggled with my weight all of my life. I am now in my mid-forties. Five years ago, I was in a small car accident that I didn't think twice about - it literally was a bump. But it was more than nothing to my already beat up, worn out, and abused body. I have several bulging lumbar discs, cervical discs, and probably have enough arthritis in me to fill a small swimming pool all from an accident I had back in 2001. When I was 250-ish pounds.
Fast forward to the part where I fell out of a bus a few years later and ballooned up to a eye-popping 381 pounds. Lost a little bit. Fell through the (soaked and rotted) kitchen floor at my ex's house - one leg only. Had the car accident. Found out several years later that I tore the labrum in my right hip. My left leg had to do double duty to keep me from falling all over the place just trying to walk from one room to another in a small apartment. Multiple surgeries...
Two years ago, I noticed my hips were aching, almost burning, whenever I would walk. It didn't matter what shoes I wore or didn't wear. It didn't matter if I sat down a bit and tried again. The pain would always come back and make walking so painful I didn't want to leave the bed. At 373 pounds, the last thing I want to do was stay in the bed all day, every day. I'm overweight, not dead! But I'll be damned if I don't feel like rigor mortis has set in most of the time. Everyone looks at you like you're lazy, when inside your body feels like it's made of gd glass and all you want to do is die.
That is until it occurred to me that my problem might be either bursitis or arthritis. I wasn't about to go to my doctor. She's nice enough, but I'm in Alabama and I'm sorry.. sometimes, her staff can be a camp of idiots. Like right now. But that's a different review - just sayin.
My mother, Mumm-Ra, takes fish oil supplements for her arthritis - among other things. I tried hers. I didn't feel different the entire time I took it - a week, week and a half. Was I not doing it right? I was taking the recommended dosage, but the caps were so tiny. Maybe I messed it up. IDK.
I started to do some research online. It took me a while and I found a page that was listing all the things we should be looking for in a really good supplement. Of course, it depends on what your needs are. My needs are to not be in any more damn pain, I don't know about you. ;)
Anyway, there were some listings of a few and I selected this brand out of all of them in the list because of the lignans. Lignans are polyphenols (big word for "badasses") that studies have shown to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease. It's true. The research is there:
https://lpi.oregonstate.edu/mic/dietary-factors/phytochemicals/lignans
Sold! I ordered it and waited. And I swear, by all that is good and holy, the day after I took my first dose (2 caplets) there was NO PAIN. I thought I had been flimflammed. Seriously. This was a fluke. Right? Sure. So I took that day's dose and waited. The next day, same result. And the next. And the next. And the... it's been over 2 months now. The first bottle, I only ordered a small bottle. I just had my second delivery about 2 weeks ago, and I ordered 240 caplets. I got the small the first time because I didn't want to waste money on a product that might not work out. I mean, I know I could get a refund, but I might be too lazy to even bother. I just wanted to make it easier for me. A small loss is easier to walk away from.
My mother is also taking them and they have improved her mobility with one of her knees - the other has been replaced so it's fine. I've never seen her so ... not upset about how her body feels. She actually can get out of the chair without screaming so loud it can be heard on the moon.
I will continue to buy this product for as long as I need it - switching between this one, which is made with anchovy oil, and the other, which is made with krill oil. It's a lifesaver. It really is. There is one thing though. Please don't take this on an empty stomach. It is coated so it won't upset your stomach, but if you do take it without eating first, you might feel a bit like you have indigestion for a long while. It's not a good feeling. Eat first, then take the caplets. I only needed to take half the recommended dosage. Figure out what works best for you.
Similar to what other reviews have said, I found that the inside of the bottle and the exterior of the pills smelled pretty fishy. I was worried at first about rancidity, since smell can be an indication. However, this product passed consumerlab's freshness testing, so I thought it might be just the outside of the capsules. I tried cutting one open and smelling the oil inside. I really wasn't expecting fish oil to smell good, but it did, barely fishy and very fresh smelling in a way that is hard to describe. I recommend you try this yourself.
Still, it's not ideal that there's a thin coat of oxidized oil on the outside of the capsules. I'm not sure if it's enough to make any difference, but I quickly wipe them down before I set out my pills for the week. I'll probably order another bottle and hope that it was a one time issue, as this is otherwise one of the best fish oil products out there.
