Does Nordic Naturals use independent labs for testing their products?
Yes. We use ISO-accredited (or similar) third-party laboratories to independently verify our ingredients on all important measures of safety and quality, including freshness, purity, stability, potency, and the accuracy of dosage claims.
Will I get fishy burps?
Repeat burping or bad taste could mean your supplement may be oxidized. All Nordic Naturals fish oils are protected from exposure to oxygen at every step of production to help deliver an exceptionally fresh taste without fishy burps or aftertaste.
Are there options for me if I have a hard time swallowing pills?
Yes. We offer liquid options for many of our fish oil products, and our fish oil soft gels are chewable for those who have difficulty swallowing pills. Some products are also available in smaller, easier-to-swallow mini soft gels or chewable gummies.
Are allergens present in Nordic Naturals products?
We use FDA-compliant allergen labeling, and disclose any warnings relating to allergen exposure on our product labels. We recommend that consumers discuss product ingredients with a health care professional for any potential allergen concerns.

Thanks for reading! I hope this is helpful.
So this one, the dose size is 2 pills. The pills are about half an inch long and a little more then a quarter of an inch wide, which is slightly larger then Amala's, but I swallowed both of them at the same time without any difficulty. These, when I opened them up, they smell like seaweed and they taste like kelp on my tongue. Which I thought was a huge improvement over Amala's, which smelled like fish and tasted like Tuna. And since I wasn't always the vegetarian I am today, I find that very interesting. And at this point, I'm planning on passing Amala's off to my hubby, who is not a vegetarian, and won't really care about the taste or...whatever may be causing the differences in taste.
The dose of omega 3's is higher in these, which is good, but it is still below all of the therapeutic uses for Omega 3. So if you are using this for anything other then a dietary supplement, like say for depression, or cancer, or whatever....it's really a rather long list of things Omega 3/6 supplementation can benefit actually...Mayo clinic's website has a great rundown of the conditions and the doses, and you can up the number of pills on these accordingly. Of course, that will get pricey. For depression, you'd need to take about 4 of these pills a day. Taking more on these is an option because it doesn't have vitamin E in it, which is something Amala does add to theirs, and because vitamin E has some harmful side effects if you exceed the recommended daily allowance, medically it's not really safe to take multiple doses of their product to get the omegas up to a therapeutic level, so that's one that I recommend you just take if you need supplemental omegas in your diet.
My one note of caution on these is for pregnant women. These have Rosemary extract in them, so if you are pregnant, or planning on becoming so, this isn't something you should be using because there is a possibility it can stimulate your uterus and lead to miscarriage. That applies to anything oral with rosemary extract actually. So just an FYI. But if you're not pregnant, I don't see any reason why these wouldn't work well for you. I'm not experiencing any unpleasant aftertaste like I was yesterday with Amala's, so I think these are generally pretty non-offensive, and this company has an established track record in the supplement industry. If you don't want to taste seaweed, or want something that will be cheaper for a therapeutic dose, you could try flax oil supplements...that's what's up next on my to-be-tried list...Best of luck to you :)
The omega-3 fatty acids in algal oil may help to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. EPA and DHA can help lower blood pressure and triglycerides as well as improve how well your blood vessels work. They can keep your eyes healthy.
They can ease inflammation. Omega-3 fatty acids can help to stop the inflammation that occurs in those with rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory conditions, helping to reduce pain and swelling.
They can help with your depression. While further research is needed, some studies show that people with depression notice an improvement in their symptoms when they have amoreomega-3 fatty acids in their diet.
