Does anyone know of Fishoil that doesn't taste fishy all day long? I have tried several brands and they ALL do it?

There are enteric coated fish oil supplements out there. Although more expensive, they are designed to dissolve in the intestine instead of the stomach. Try your local healthfood or vitamin store, such as "The Vitamin Shoppe". You should be able to find such a fish oil supplement at these places.

Yes! Try FISOL brand fish oil. They are enteric coated as Arizona said, and I promise, you will never get a fishy taste. I take three per day, my husband takes them and even my 14 year old daughter takes one a day. She would NEVER take them if they tasted fishy!

Good luck.

I had this problem when I first took fish oil supplements, but ever since taking Vitamin World EPA Natural Fish Oil, 1000mg, plus taking them during or at the beginning of a meal, I never have the taste problem anymore. If I take them at the tail end of the meal or not with a meal, yes, I taste them. So, before spending the big $$, maybe you could try taking them at the beginning of your meals and see how that works out. BTW, those Vit World ones are less than $20 for 500 1000mg softgels, on sale (this coming Mo, Tu).
