Unless companies like Kirkland are lying, there are undetectable levels of mercury, pcb's, and other toxins in many fish oil products that are VERY affordable. Kirkland enteric coated capsules go for about 17 dollars for 180 capsules and the normal capsules go for about 10 dollars for 400-Dirt Cheap!!!! The only drawback to buying Kirkland fish oil may be that you have to settle for the typical 4 to 3 DHA to EPA ratio.
I know companies like Carlson's and Nordic naturals are producing high quality fish oil, but how much higher quality is it and is it worth paying the price for?
Scott, I think the pharmacological activity comes from the 2 distinct types of omega 3s that are found in fish oil, DHA and EPA.
