Fish oil

[pegkerr]

For a variety of reasons, it seems that adding fish oil to my family's diet would be a Good Idea (some of us have elevated triglycerides, some have depression, some are prone to eczema, and it would be protective for me for breast cancer, too). Since half of the family adamantly refuses to eat fish, I'm interested into fish oil capsules. What should we look for in choosing fish oil capsules--are there any industry standards we should look for, to avoid mercury or PCB contamination, etc? Any advice for finding it, in non-contaminated form, reasonably priced? Are you taking fish oil? Has it helped you?

My family takes the Trader Joe's odorless with dinner and we've yet to have a problem with burps or fish taste. We take them a couple days a week though, because we're terrible at remembering vitamins every day.
