I have written to all the distributors of fish oil supplements in
Australia and asked them what their capsules contain - in full.  None have
told me.

All Australian capsules contain 180 mg EPA and 120 mg DHA.  So, my
question to the distributors is <what makes up the other 70 percent?>

I am assuming they aren't telling me because they simply don't know; that
is, they test for the EPA and DHA, and accept whatever comes in the rest.

Sounds a bit rough and ready for my liking.  What is your experience in
other markets?

Keith
