this is fromthe Coromega website ( http://www.coromega.com/faq/). I believe you can submit more questions there... What can you tell me about the purity and safety of Coromega? I've heard that fish oil can contain mercury and other toxins. Coromega fish oil is proven to be 5X's more pure than the industry standard.** Coromega is committed to providing safe and pure products for you and your family. The oil used in Coromega comes from small, deep, cold-water fish that are less likely to be contaminated. The oil then undergoes molecular distillation, which removes toxins, heavy metals and PCBs. Coromega is manufactured in our state-of-the-art GMP compliant facility. Sophisticated testing methods assure that the purified fish oil used in the manufacture of Coromega is of the correct composition of fatty acids. Coromega is tested by third party laboratories and certified by NSF and consumerlab.com. ** Current GOED Voluntary Monograph vs. Coromega fish oil purity testing

Yes. Beautifully! And it does seem to last much longer before needing another polishing. I'd say it last about three months of daily usage. I do try to eat eggs with stainless ware, however. By the way, my husband hates the smell. I clean the silver out on the back porch.

I just called Life-Flo's product department regarding the mercury/heavy metal content and they said they test for all heavy metals (mercury, arsenic, and iron...) and there is no more than 10 parts per 1 million so that's a pretty low ratio. I have been hesitant to try it, but that makes me feel better.

Yes it is but it is VERY expensive. I opted when getting more for the 64 oz Swanson Ultra Magnesium Oil for i believe $49. That is definitely Magnesium Chloride and it is pure and 100%. The other stuff seems a rip off comparatively to me for only 8 oz.

From their website: "Ocean Blue® Brand of products contain no heavy metals (mercury, arsenic, lead and cadmium) and no toxins (PCB's & dioxins)"

I don't think so I just looked it up and it just says that it is free of potentially high levels of mercury but does not say mercury free. I do know the Natures Way brand are mercury free. Hope that helps.

No. I had problems with receiving damaged/dented cans that had lost their seal and had to be thrown out. Also, white albacore tuna has the higher mercury content than most fish (because they are higher on the food chain; eating other fish that have mercury in them from environmental pollution. If you eat a lot of tuna, you might want to have yourself tested for mercury.

For general information about fish oil, check this article at Web MD. http://www.m.webmd.com/diet/features/what-to-know-about-omega-3s-and-fish. As for Barlean's fish oil, it is the ONLY fish oil I have found (liquid or capsules) that doesn't result in my burping fish taste later. Also, it's purified/organic and the flavors I have tried are delicious! It tends to be a little sweeter than I like, but that's a minor complaint. I am currently taking the lime. It's slight tartness somewhat counteracts its sweetness. I highly recommend it though it's a a bit pricey. A 16 oz. bottle lasts quite a while though at a tablespoon a day which is what I take.

I do not know. The website of the manufacturer (Greenpasture) has a page with their analysis of the product for several nutrients. I do not know if mercury levels appear there. The best would be to ask the manufacturer by phone or email if that product has been recently analyzed for mercury or other toxic metals such as lead, nickel, cadmium. Other option is to take the bottle of pills to a USDA laboratory and check if they can analyze the product by free or by a fee. Please let me know if you get a response to my email sheila092001@yahoo.com. That is a very interesting question to know an answer!

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.
