Hello Zuleikaa! I have enjoyed some of your prolific writing in the archives on this forum and look forward to reading many more of them. Thank you for those! Perhaps you missed my earlier post on the first page of this thread, quoted below. The second paragraph of that quote explains that I would pay Amazon almost three times (with shipping) for an equivalent daily EPA+DHA from Carlson's finest fish oil (2.6 teaspoons), as I do for Lovaza from my insurance's mail-order pharmacy.

Were I not able to get the Lovaza so inexpensively, I'd choose the equivalent amount of Carlson's finest fish oil (two 500ml and one 200 ml bottle) at 2.6 teaspoons per day. I'd personally pay Amazon $55-60 for that (or Nordic Naturals) before I'd buy a product from an unknown manufacturer.
