is it pure fish oil?

Here is the ingredient list: Cod liver oil, natural lemon essence, natural peppermint essence, alpha tocopherol. Statements on bottle says it comes from the pure cold waters of Iceland and processed using traditional methods to ensure its naturally occurring vitamins and essential fatty acids remain intact....contains no artificial colors or preservatives...may contain soy.

It is pure fish oil with lemon and peppermint essences added for flavor and vitamin E (alpha-tocopheral) added for extra vitamins and to extend shelf-life. If you don't like the flavor of fish, there's good chance you'll still like this. I detest fish but want the benefits, so I found a way around the flavor - I freeze it in a small tupperware container, scoop out a tsp, slide it off onto the very back of my tongue, then take a big swig of hot tea and swallow. Works like a charm!

"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.

If you go to the Carlson Labs website it describes that the children fish oil 'has 800 mg of Omega -3 Fatty Acids per each 1/2 teaspoonful' and that is Vitamin A & D free. The Carlson oil I use (adults) states it has 1,600 mg of Omega per teaspoon . . . And has Vit E. I have a 7 year old boy and I give him half a teaspoon/day. I don't think that there is much difference but it might be worth for you to contact Carlson directly. Good luck!

New Chapter wholemega Whole Fish oil is far better than OmegaXL. New Chapter is 100% wild Alaskan Salmon, with no fish oil aftertaste. Truly a superior product.

By "what is" I assume you mean what are the amounts of ingredients of the two fatty acids, not what is their function or definition. As listed on the label, the NB Fish Oil 1400mg provides the following: Each capsule (softgel) contains 1400mg. of Fish Oil, providing 980mg. of total Omega-3 Fatty Acids, comprised of the following: EPA.......647mg. DHA......253mg., plus "other fatty acids" in unspecified amounts. It is derived from fish, anchovy, mackerel, and sardines. If you have further questions, please feel free.

It's not supposed to smell like fish oil - it really doesn't have much of a scent, maybe a little bit of a nut-like scent. It doesn't smell pretty if that is what you have in mind. Yes, it's oily but should absorb into your skin. I happen to love this product because I feel it's natural & does what it's supposed to do without all the frilly stuff.

It does not state 100% pure, but having used it, I conclude that it is indeed 100% Pure (Food Grade) Silicone Grease. It is not in a liquid state. While it has varied applicable uses, it is intended for applications such as scuba equipment o-rings and other rubber applications which the use of other lubricants would result in a breakdown of the rubber parts. It is used specifically in those applications intended for breathing apparatus and which the use of other types of lubricants would cause harm to the individual due to their compositions (not Food Grade).

This is a plant-based product, no shellfish, so I believe it would contain no mercury. It is NOT a fish oil omega 3 supplement. On their website, now foods has an easy-to-read visual of the product label.

Sorry I don't know. The bottle says "No fish oil" and "..while avoiding risk of ocean-borne contaminants sometimes found in fish oils."

No, it's not. The title of the product page is misleading as they are referring to a group of Barlean's oils, some of which are organic. Fish oils cannot be certified organic since they live in natural bodies of water (oceans, rivers) which cannot be completely controlled as one can with farming and animal husbandry.

This is a pure oil. You'll need to dilute it in a carrier before applying directly to your skin. Great price for it!

Most commercially available fish oils are derived from coldwater fish, primarily menhaden, but also salmon and trout. These oils are rich in the Omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

It has been tested by IFOS, the most reputable independent third party lab for omega-3 fish oil in the U.S.A. See my review for a further explanation. RWM

Their website has nice info regarding the fish oil and how it compares to other fish oils on the market. Very minimal processing, comes from salmon, if I recall correctly. I did some research before choosing and have been very satisfied.

Since the fish used to make this brand of salmon oil are wild caught from Alaskan they do not have any mercury in them at all. It is one of the safest and cleanest fish oils you can get for your pet.

Yes. Carlson is the best of all the Omega 3 fish oil products. Their Liquid Omega 3 in the glass bottle is even better!!
