What process is used to make this salmon oil? Is the fish wild or farmed &amp; where are they from? Is it using the whole body or just livers?

I would contact the company at their yummy chummies website to get the answers you seek. They are a small family run company and will probably be pleased to speak with you.

Yes, it is from anchovies and sardines, that is what it states on the bottle. This is the best fish oil product that I have used, there is no after taste.

The box says wild caught, harvested from the cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Morocco and packed in pure olive oil. Doesn't say where packed, but distributed by Manischewitz Co., Newark, NJ. Contains 1,200 mg of Omega 3 per serving (2 per can). Wonderful! I've been buying these for years...the BEST!

This is NOT a Standard Process product. Standard Process does not have fermented cod liver oil.

Sorry, the can and packaging only says Alaskan Pink Salmon it is the best salmon I have ever used. Absolutely NO waste. Great, fresh taste...always. I have ordered many times.

This is not cod liver oil. Barlean's has a separate product line for cod liver oil. This fish oil comes from the whole fish (anchovy, sardine, and mackerel) rather than just the liver, and contains ascorbic acid, rosemary extract, ascorbyl palmitate, soy lecithin and d-alpha tocopherol. These act as an anti-oxidant ensuring the product is fresh. Ascorbic acid is vitamin C.

This product is molecularly distilled, but I called Solgar recently and they would no release the COA. They said it was "proprietary info." Not really true, but there you are. There are not many wild salmon oils on the IFOS, Barlean's Wild and Whole is the only 100% wild salmon oil I could find there. Carlson's Norwegain (farmed) salmon oil blend is there, but it's mixed with other fish oils. Wild salmon is very clean to begin with, but Solgar does their own additional cleaning and testing to ensure purity, potency, and freshness. If you want the details of how they do this, you can go to their website at solgardotcom. It is too long to post here. Hope that helps.

The omegas you list are not "added" to this wild salmon oil. They are the omegas naturally found in wild salmon, just like if you ate the fish itself. This is a completely natural product. :)

Hello Happy Rafters, Thank you for your question. The fish oil is made of the finest fish oil available from Deep Ocean Water fish (Sardines, Mackerel, Herring and Salmon), usually caught in the deep sea outside Norway. Occasionally it can come from other areas as well, depending on the availability of fish oil from the Nordic area. . The oil is processed in the US, using one of the best purification methods available, Molecular Distillation, which is the only current method that can remove heavy metals, PCB's and other toxins to below detectable limits for human consumption. The process preserves the quality of the fish oil and guarantees that no Trans Fats are created. I hope this answers your question and that you are satisfied with our fish oil. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us again. Best Regards, Jennifer Anderson Customer Service Manager

So one answer was, "This particular mink oil is natural." Saying that it's natural could mean that this is 5% mink oil, and 95% other animal fats or vegetable oil etc. Does anyone know what the ingredients are? I'd really like to know what the breakdown is.

I usually get the salmon oil and have not recieved this yet (comes tomorrow- recycled my old bottle last trash day). I noted that some others responded to similar questions on the product site in Amazon. I think my dogs like the salmon oil better but I like to switch it up alittle. They love both.

"Olive Oil" posted the ingredients...the cod liver oil is first ingredient...the lemon and peppermint essence flavors mask the awful taste of cod liver oil...somewhat. I think this is great oil, take a tsp every day cuz I'm not a fish person. Made in Canada.

salmon oil is not species-specific. Although this particular product is not human food-grade, even people use salmon oil.

Hello K.R. I found the answer to your question in the Q&A; section of this product. Below is Young Life's response:"Our fish oil is sourced from anchovies and mackerel, which swim in the cold Humboldt Current in Chili (they are not farm raised).Thanks, Kurt - Young Life Research ". I hope this helps.

The inside label states that they use wild caught krill and cod, never farm raised. Also, the butter oil is from free range grass fed cattle never administered antibiotics or hormones. They strive to get the best sources of fish from cold waters. Because this product is not pasteurized, they make extra efforts and make it the way our ancestors did by fermenting the oil to archive the best results. They also test for metals and toxins in small batches to ensure consistency. Hope this helps.

there is Salmon Oil in it, but no salmon. Ingredients state Bison as the first ingredient and venison a little later on in the ingredients.
