It says on the label that it's concentrated by molecular distillation (which 2yrs ago everybody was saying was the best!) so there probably are some EEs. The top 2 Google (TM) hits are diametrically opposed on whether it actually matters: http://www.ascentahealth.com/health-science/science-articles/fish-oil-triglycerides-vs-ethyl-esters-as-nature-intended http://www.sciencebasedhealth.com/Fish-Oil-EE-vs-TG-omega-3s-which-is-better-W119.aspx The Ascenta website has a test you can do: you put 20ml of your fish oil in a styrofoam cup. EEs will leak through it in 10min, triglycerides won't. Tempted to do it, because now you've got me curious, but I wonder how many of these capsules I'll have to squeeze open to get 20ml? I picked these because I wanted buckets of DHA for my brain. I'd like to see some quantitative data: for instance, one of these supposedly has 500mg DHA, whereas maybe a triglyceride one only has 80. So if this DHA is only, say, half as bioavailable as the triglyceride, I'm getting 250mg from this one which is STILL better than 80. Also, even the EEs-are-bad articles seem to say it only actively harms people who have certain conditions or are taking certain other meds - though I admit I skimmed, because the whole "last year's Underdog's Super Energy Pill is this year's poison" thing gives me a fatal Out-of-Patience Error.

Hi Beth, it all depends on how much you are taking a day. Recommendation that doctor gave me is based on teaspoon. Therefore, the total I can get from this is 48 teaspoons. For your reference, 8oz = 236ml = 48 teaspoons. So now you can do the math based on your recommendation.Hope that helps you. Regards, Flavio

650 mg EPA, 450 mg DHA, 50 mg other omega-3 acids in a teaspoon size serving (4.5 grams)

The active ingredient per chewable tablet shows the omega 3 fatty acids as 100 mg. Tried to take a picture of the label for you but couldn't figure out how to copy and paste it to this page. Hope this helps.

A. Hoffman - will you please explain your claim of the Omegawise Krill oil being a terrible product which should be avoided at all costs. It seems a bit trite to make such a strong statement with no explanation.

Each softgel is 1,200mg in size, so they are about average for fish softgels. Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega, for instance is 1,000mg per softgel. Omegavia is 1,300mg per softgel. That's about as big as they go. I wish they made these in 500 or even 600mg size. Their size now is ok, but I would like a smaller one, too. However, that would be more expensive and mean taking twice as many softgels. :)

Not sure, it is not listed anywhere on the box or package. Try to google sardines and omega 3 fats.

Hi J, We would like to thank you for trying Viva Labs Krill Oil and really appreciate your feedback about our product. Upon inspection it would appear as though our capsules are not entirely full, however our capsules are flushed with nitrogen in order to remove oxygen, thereby preserving essential omega-3's. While it appears as though there is an air bubble, rest assured each capsule does in fact contain 625mg of krill oil. Our krill oil is third party tested and results are shown on ConsumerLab.com, justifying our label claims and exceeding customer expectations. I hope that this information has been helpful and if you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me directly at amazon@vivalabs.com or through this comment thread and I would be happy to assist you.

Don't know anything about "strengths" but my nutritionist told me that a good fish oils EPA & DHA should be a 1000mgs. This one is 900 which is the closest I kind find.

I already answered this specifically in grams and milligrams per teaspoon. Please refer to my previous answer. Thanks.

No clue re whole ground / cold milled. U might google it. Pkg says one serving contains 1800 mg of Omega-3. No percentages listed.
