Nutra sea I disected the price value once in another thread and it turns out is way too expensive for what you`re getting. But the company seems top notch... Right now I`m using the health balance costco fish oil caps and it`s the best I`ve ever used. No fish burps and it only costs $25 for 240 caps that each have 200 mg of DHA. So using 6 a day, the bottle last you 40 days.
A friendly warning... Don`t buy the NOW brand fish oil caps. I can only take 2 of them and have to take a health balance one to get my DHA level for that dose as taking 3 of them gives the nasty sides.
I bought some Jamiesson fish oil caps that were very well priced at the pharmacy and they`re good to go. I got 180 gels caps for $10 and each cap has 200 DHA. Not bad. But the regular price is not worth buying...
I got some samples from TS and will be trying them tommorow. I`ve already calculated the value of the gel caps and they come out less expensive than the costco one`s if you buy 1000 of them for $40. Will let you guys know how it goes.

You make a good point. But I think the question is if there is any mercury or heavy metals in the less expensive brands. And if so, is it harmfull?
And let`s not forget that the whole organic industry is not regulated. They make these claims that are not even verified. There can be land right beside your precious organic crops that is not organic. Thererfore all the shit from the other side does affect the so called organic side making it not so organic...

Here's the certificate of analysis for our fish oil that came back about a few months ago...so you can see exactly what is in them...FYI <0.1 ppm PCB and heavy metals is basically non existent so we were very pleased with these results and are more than happy to share the COA's with everyone...we have nothing hide :D...our products are top notch!
We'll be posting up all our COA's on the site once we have our developer add in another pop-up window.

The fish oil caps from Ts are GTG guys! Just one thing though, 4 caps did give me some of the known sides, but taking 3 took care of that and give you 360mg of DHA. I plan on taking 12 a day to give me 1440mg of DHA to enhance my super smart ass brain for your enjoyment!!!

I just bought 1000 1g caps of fish oil for around $30. Not sure if it's against the rules to say where from.

^^^ I hope for you it`s not the NOW brand... Have you tried them yet? You can name the brand.

Hey TS, I'm glad to see you guys standing behind your product! That's awesome, and for some people on the fence about trying your product it will certainly help

off-topic, but TS I didn't even realize we could get samples of the oil caplets or I would have asked for some in my previous order. The samples offer on the website only mentions whey products. No harm done. I'm stocked on oil but when I run out I'll check your out for sure.

Ritch really wanted to try them so we made an exception...we will make exceptions once and while for CBB bros here...but unfortunately we cannot offer samples on everything. :)

if anyone wants to sample other products you can simply let us know and we'll try to get them out for you...
We only post up free samples of our protein powders simply because we understand that taste is a big factor with protein. On the other hand, supplements are supplements and we take them sometimes regardless of taste (unless they're flavored).
