Let’s face it, with so many different products out there, it can be quite a daunting task to select the best fish oil supplements, so here are some vital tips to ensure you only get the best.

One of the main drawbacks I hear from people is the repeating or the fishy burps and odor they get from taking a capsule and this is true for many on the market. It is a sign of low quality impure, stale or rancid oil and may be disguised with an unnecessary enteric coating or flavorings.

The best fish oil supplements are guaranteed not to do this as they come from pure sustainable sources and from fish rich in the two important omega 3 fatty acids, DHA and EPA, such as Hoki and Tuna.

The supplement should be pharmaceutical grade and molecularly distilled to remove all the impurities, like mercury and other heavy metals. This will leave you with a capsule so pure that if you open it, you should just get a faint ocean smell, nothing more.

This will also enable you to get the maximum health benefits like the prevention of heart disease, lowering of cholesterol, and maintaining optimum brain health and well-being. More recent research shows that it may help to fight breast and colon cancer too.

The critical factor when choosing a product is to see the relative DHA and EPA amounts, as you need a higher amount of DHA as it is more beneficial, so look for a minimum of 25%, no less.

Although traditionally thought to be a good provider of omega 3, it is wise to avoid any cod liver oils supplements as they contain high levels of vitamin A and D, both of which can be toxic in high doses.

If you follow these guidelines you can rest assured you will get the best fish oil supplements possible, and probably the best health investment you could ever make.
