1.0 out of 5 stars Bait and switch, February 18, 2010

This review is from: Krill Oil (Health and Beauty)

Dr. Mercola has cleverly performed a "bait and switch"; He deceptively stopped using Neptune Krill oil as he oiginally touted and yet calims this product to be "new and improved"; look carefully at the ingredients; the level of key ingredients have been significantly decreased- EPA has gone from 150 down to 90 and the level of Astaxanthin (a key antioxident and one the the strengths of Krill oil) has gone down from 1.5 to less than half that amount;;;;; ALL FOR THE SAME PRICE; As a physician, I always want my patients (ane me) to get the highest quality product at the best price; Dr. Mercola's response to my inquiry was woefully inadequate stating that "there is some new research" which he failed to provide;
This is a relatively recent change; the only way I found out because I learned early on that some unscrupulous supplement suppliers change their formulas signifcantly not thinking anyone will find out- always keep your old bottles in case they try to be deceptive (But you have to look closely); Even on his website he states that there has been no change in the product other than its delivery component- the caplique; this clearly is untrue;
ALWAYS KEEP SOME OF YOUR OLD SUPPLEMENT BOTTLES AND REGULARLY COMPARE SO YOU CAN CATCH TRICKS LIKE THIS !!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Lack of transparency in Mecola Krill oil gels, October 1, 2010

Every product must state fully, product description, capsule strength etc. When do we find this out, after we have bought the product? And why does Amazon countenance this kind of thing?

1.0 out of 5 stars MYSTERY PRODUCT, February 3, 2010

This review is from: Krill Oil (Health and Beauty)

I give it one star, but really it deserves a minus, because nowhere on this page, nor on Dr. Mercola's webpage advertising this krill oil, can I find a quantitative list of ingredients! The product description refers to a "rich source of omega-3s with DHA and EPA" and a "unique and synergistic blend of ingredients" without ever stating how much and of what. This is being sold based on faith: Mercola is not selling clearly defined pills, he's selling his sales pitch.
