I know these are supposed to be flax oil pills but are there any traces of fish? I have seen other companies add fish to theirs. Also gluten/wheat?

I use this every day. According to the label it contains only organic flax seed oil. Under "other ingredients" it shows gelatin, glycerin, water, and carob. Those are the capsule. I think (don't know) the carob helps prevent degradation of the flax seed oil in the event the capsules are exposed to light for some time. The label also expressly states "Not manufactured with yeast, wheat, gluten, milk, egg, fish, shellfish, or tree nut ingredients."

the box says that diary and soy are present in "trace" amounts. whatever that means. It says "no wheat, no gluten, no egg, no fish/shellfish, no peanuts/tree nuts".

Gelatin, glycerin and purified water and something called Astaxanthin in addition to the Omega 3 krill oil. Additionally there is a shell fish warning on the label. I have had no bad side effects from taking this and it really does not have a fishy aftertaste.

I couldn't find any direct information on the question you asked, however I copied this from the Barlean's website, "Kosher Certification: Many Barlean's products are currently Kosher certified. These include: Forti-Flax, Flax Oil, High Lignan Flax Oil, Omega Twin, High Lignan Omega Twin, Borage Oil and Coconut Oil." This list does not directly identify Fish oil as kosher certified (thus not containing any pork) however it gives you some alternatives if you're seeking Omega 3 in your diet. I believe some of those products are made with similar gel caps, so I don't know why they would make one with pork gelatin and another with something different. Obviously this probably isn't enough evidence so I would suggest contacting Barlean's directly at info@barleans.com OR 800.445.3529. Good luck!

In general, there is no need to take both, flax oil and fish oil. That would be too much, because both contain Omega3 fatty acids. Barlean's is a good company, which supports the I-522: Your right to know. They are for the GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) labeling. I assume you would like to know if you are taking GMO products. Having said that, I personally prefer Krill Oil. Krill Oil has the highest concentration of Omega3. I always buy Dr. Mercola's Krill Oil. You can trust Dr. Mercola's products. Please, google Dr. Mercola. He has his own website. His clinic is in the state of Illinois.

I do not see any mention of gluten on the packaging, so I did a google search and found that flaxseeds are naturally gluten free.

I've never tasted fish in them, and I don't think there is any on the ingredient label. I think that information is just on the label because if an FDA requirement to disclose when processed foods may have come into contact with certain other foods that are prone to trigger severe reactions in a small segment of the population.

Geez, I an NO expert....but here are my thoughts: ONE of the ingredients is RICE FLOUR.....BUT....the label also says that it is not manufactured with wheat gluten, soy, milk, yadda yadda yadda. I can only tell you that while I am a "low-ER carb person".....I, personally, don't worry about the supplement. Hope this helps.

The bottle is glass. I know fermented foods are good for us but I had to worst time swallowing these pills. They smell completely foul. I ended up trading fish oil bottles with my boyfriend because I couldn't take these anymore. As for effectiveness, my results are not measurable. I can't see or feel any differences in my body like I can when using L-glutamine. Ultimately, this brand appeared to be of high quality and the pill casing was quite thin, I'm assuming for easy gastro-absorbtion. Which is probably why they smell so bad.

"Contains soy in trace amounts" is printed on the Supplement Fact label on the bottle. Also on the Supplements Label is "No wheat, no gluten, no dairy, no egg, no fish/shellfish, no peanuts/tree nuts." If you are extremely sensitive to soy and soy products, even in tiny trace amounts, you need to find another product.

Their website has nice info regarding the fish oil and how it compares to other fish oils on the market. Very minimal processing, comes from salmon, if I recall correctly. I did some research before choosing and have been very satisfied.

The label says "Rice Bran oil, softgel capsule (gelatin, glycerine, water, calcium carbonate) soy lecithin and yellow beeswax" ... "Not manufactured with wheat gluten, milk, egg, fish, shellfish or tree nut ingredients. Produced in a GMP facility that processes other ingredients containing these allergens." Also, the magnesium in the pills is magnesium citrate and magnesium oxide. I hope this is helpful
