The capsules smell awful. Is there something wrong with my bottle or is this normal?

I immediately took a bottle to smell it and it does not smell awful. Maybe it is something wrong.

To me, most vitamins have an odor when they are in the bottle with a tight lid. I still take mine. E and B smell the worst.

Hi Connie,I don't take that anymore. Hard to get down. Had chase it with orange juice or SOMETHING. The smell stays with you. I order the gel capsules and have been taking them ever since. They are 650mg and all it states on the bottle is that it is a gel cap with Extra Virgin, red palm oil. Hope this helps. If you can't find the gel caps, I ordered mine from www.pipingrock.com.

I noticed that they are a bit bitter, but it's nothing terrible, I just swallow them quickly. I have some raw vitamin capsules that taste far worse to to tongue, but I just swallow those quickly as well and chase it with something that tastes better.

What kind of "things?" Doesn't sound normal to me. Think I would request a new bottle.

I just spoke with the Westinghouse customer service (E-mail: customerservice@saihomeproducts.com Telephone: 1-866-365-5339). I described this smell as rather a motor oil-like (this is what it reminds me). They say it's normal for the first cycles :-) It's a glue that holds the parts together and it gets burned initially. The explanation makes sense to me, so I will give it a try. No plans to drink this water, though, until the smell (and the taste) goes away. The idea was to drink pure water, not diluted glue :-)

Hi. I wouldn't say this is "normal" but I just received a bottle from them, and I've experienced the same thing. The oil is pressed from seeds, so I guess it just wasn't filtered properly. I'm going to run it through a coffee filter. That should take care of the problem.

I don't have a bottle here right now. I'm waiting for my next order. I think there may have been some changes to the packaging. I believe my last bottle was white though. The capsules are greyish.

No that is not normal. I am on my second bottle and the scent is exactly the same

Yes. My most recent auto delivery was capsules instead of the softgels. There was a strong fishy smell when I opened the bottle and the capsule tastes fishy. I'm hoping this is not a permanent change. If so, I will be searching for another brand.

I just smelled mine It does have a very odd smell. It smells similar to vitamins. I guess I'm used to the smellBecause my vitamin c serum smells like that as well. Try putting a drop or two in your hand and rub you finger in it. Then spread it on your face. I hope this helps.

I Dont have the bottle anymore. I can tell you it was a wast of money and the pills smell like dog food. Just my opinion...

Mine had a slight herbal smell. Try mixing with an essential oil like lavender.

I don't have full use of my "smell" sense, but my husband says they don't smell bad like the Omeg Reds. I also pierce mine and add the contents to my morning protien shake and it doesn't effect the taste (don't like swallowing those large capsules)

I've always found them to have a pretty strong odor; some bottles stronger than others. I've never noticed that the odor was like ammonia though. I don't really know what to tell you except use your own judgement.

I never had any problems with a smell, but maybe one of the pills cracked and oil leaked out. That could be causing the smell. I would just pour them all out and check.

Hello, Yes the pills are yellow and they have a distinctive smell. This is normal and consistent with all of the bottles I have purchased from different sources. Hope this helps.

Mine were too. Half normal and half a red clearish soft gel. Called manufacturer and they are sending a return shipping label. I have never had this happen either. I have no idea what the other pills are, but definitely not taking them!
