From the Manufacturer

The consumption of Nature Made Fish Oil, which contains Omega-3 fatty acids, may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. The FDA has evaluated the data and determined that although there is scientific evidence to directly support the claim, the evidence is not conclusive. Omega-3 fatty acids also help maintain triglyceride and cholesterol levels already in the normal range. Nature Made Fish Oil has no artificial colors or flavors, and no chemical solvents, yeast, starch, or gluten.

4.0 out of 5 stars Natrue Made IS tested for purity, August 10, 2006

I called Nature Made and inquired about their procedures to test their product for mercury. Their Fish oil is USP tested for purity and potency. There isn't any "mercury-free" fish oil, however, NM contains only .01 mcg / g of mercury. Very low level and certainly not toxic. I'm keeping my bottle of it and will take it confidently. FYI: they have a great website that contains all this information.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't over react..., January 25, 2006

This review is from: Nature Made Fish Oil Omega-3, 1200mg, 100 Softgels (Health and Beauty)

This supplement is USP verified (http://www.usp.org/USPVerified/dietarySupplements/) so the previous two reviewers may be making too strong statements. Under the certification the supplement may not contain, among other things, any harmful amounts of mercury.

This review is from: Nature Made Fish Oil Omega-3, 1200mg, 100 Softgels (Health and Beauty)

I participated in a diet study in the late 1990's coducted by the Oregon Health Sciences University on the effects of Fish Oil and Retinitus Pigmentosa, a degenerative eye disease. Fish oil was believed to alleviate some of the problems with this condition. I was a control volunteer without eye problems and was used solely as a baseline for this study. My assigned dose was 15000 MG per day, or 15 capsules - 5 with each meal. This is 5 to 6 times the dosage recommendations on the bottle.

In a nutshell, the physiological change over 4 months was remarkable at this dosage. My blood pressure reduced significantly, the "good lipid" HDL levels went way high, the "bad lipid", LDL, went way down. My skin and hair were very healthy, even during the dry winter months. And although it may just be a symptom of being healthier, libido increased dramatically as well. The only side effects of this routine was the occasional "fish burps" as mentioned by other users, but these aren't as bad when you take the capsules after a meal or right before bedtime, and over time you do get used to the gaseous anomolies. The benefits far outweigh the side effects.

I recommend taking at least 10,000 Mg a day for best results. Just remember, each capsule is 25 calories, all from fat. You may need to reduce other fats in your diet as to not gain weight at this dosage level. Stick with it, and the results after a few months may amaze you!
