  • Carlson Fish Oils
    One teaspoon of Carlson's fish oil contains 1600 mg omega-3 fatty acids, of which 800 mg are EPAs, 500 mg DHAs and 300 mg other omega-3 fatty acids. The  fish oil comes from Norway and is certified free of heavy metals such as mercury, cadmium, lead, PCB's and numerous other contaminants that we don't want inside our bodies. Also the taste is great, there's nothing fishy at all. It is vitamin A and D free, just in case you are worried about overdosing your kids. If you do want those vitamins to be there, you can try Carlson's cod liver oil.

    They have this incredible and apparently quite permanent offer, 2 X 500 ml bottles (which is A LOT and lasts forever) is only $51.92, and they don't even charge for shipping!! (Handling charge of $1.50 is added.)
