Hi, my main concern is the amount of mercury in the fish oils before the EPA/DHA ratio....see if the manufacturer can guarantee them to be mercury free - liver oils seem to have more toxins as the sea pollution goes straight to the liver - the higher up in the food chain a fish is, the more it concentrates toxins. Distilled fish oils seem to be a good bet.
