Do not be surprised if I tell you that the presence of harmful PCBS and mercury in fish oil capsules is quite common. I am not exaggerating, but 80% of the fish oil capsules floated in the market fall in this category. Most of them contain high levels of heavy metals like mercury, lead, arsenic, etc. and thus, are not suitable for human consumption. However, since not many rules and regulations are followed in the supplement market, manufactures find it quite easy to sell off their low quality products containing PCBS and mercury in fish oil capsules. Before moving on to how to avoid PCBS and mercury in fish oil capsules, let us first understand the reason of their presence in the fish capsules or soft gels. Because of increasing pollution in ocean waters, fish caught from them are also full of harmful toxins. If the manufactures do not follow proper refining techniques, the oil generated is also tainted and has high toxicity. Consumption of this impure oil could lead to health ailments like nausea, diarrhea, headache, and even to toxin poisoning. The gels that undergo the molecular distillation process are the purest and toxin free. This is because the molecular distillation filters out all the unwanted and harmful toxins from the oil based on their molecular weight. It is the only refining process known to human kind, which can filter out the toxins effectively and thus, make the oil good for human consumption. As you know quality comes with a price, this refining process is also quite expensive. This is the reason that, to increase their profit margins; many manufactures put customer's health at stake by simply opting to skip this expensive yet very effective filtering process. Look for COA (Certificate of Analysis) published by the manufacture to know about the percentage of PCBS and mercury in fish oil capsules. Certificate of Analysis is examined by various independent organizations like the IFOS as a quality control measure. Higher the amount of toxins quoted in the COA, lower is the quality of the supplement. Now that you know how to avoid PCBS and mercury in fish oil capsules, and lay your hands on the effective ones, put this information to test and select a high quality supplement for yourself and your family.
