Is there any difference between these Super Omega-3 fish oil softgels and the Super Omega-3 GEMS fish oil concentrate? Both say 1000 mg.....

I've been wracking my brain to figure out if there is a difference between Carlson's Super Omega 3 or Elite Omega 3 oils. What I've noticed is on the label if it has 500mg or 600mg it is concentrated, so 1 capsule per serving. If it has 1200mg then 2 capsules per serving. Totally makes no sense. Wish they would clear this up. Because it's an excellent brand with the best qualities, especially the added Vitamin E to stabilize the oil.

What size are these pills; are they a mini size and easy to swallow?

The are not mini size. They are 15/16 of an inch long, and about 3/8 of an inch in diameter. They weigh about 2 grams. However, they are very easy to swallow. They are comparatively thick molded gelatin (I assume) capsules with no seams or rough spots. The gelatin rapidly becomes very slippery when you put it in your mouth. They are very smooth and tapered. I take them with a sip of water (or whatever) after letting them sit in my mouth for 15-20 seconds. I have a hard time swallowing some tablets, even smaller ones, because of the rough texture, and the urgency to get them swallowed before they come apart. I find these very easy to swallow, and have no bad aftertaste or other problems.

How many pills = 1,000mg?

1 pill has 1,000 mg, Cheryl. Hope that helps.

Are these cholesterol free?

It's a complicated issue and one best left to your own doctor but in the meantime, here's an article on the topic of fish oil and cholesterol which you might find handy (in my own personal experience, I routinely take fish oil and have low LDL (the so called bad cholesterol which you generally want to keep low and I have high HDL (the so called good cholesterol which you want to keep high - but also bear in mnd that our cholesterol profiles can often be impacted by hereditary factors as well, not just diet) https://www.drweil.com/vitamins-supplements-herbs/supplements-remedies/is-fish-oil-bad-for-ldl/

Trusted fish oil I have taken for years.

The Carlson brand is reputable and a quality product. There is no fishy aftertaste at all. It is easy to swallow, feels good, and no smell at all. The product is also free of harmful contaminants and sugar free.

Quality is crucial to good health

I have taken these for 25 years! I have researched other omega 3 supplements, but I keep ordering the Carlson brand. Since I am a loyal customer, maybe I should get a deep discount....lol

There should be a warning on the bottle's label that this product is not compatible with certain blood pressure medication especially beta blockers.I wasn't happy that the supplement caused problems with Metoprolol my blood pressure medication and I had to stop taking the supplement. An expensive purchase.

Cumple con el propósito, esta certificado y es de excelente calidad, lo pedía el Herb! Pero tarda bastante ahora lo compre aquí y llego enseguida. No compren cualquier suplemento por barato. Este producto cumple con todo.

This product has been independently verified for purity which is something that I find valuable. As well it is packed in dark containers which helps to maintain the product integrity. Overall, great product.
