Most of them went silent. Fish oil is one of the most well-researched supplements on the market — but there's a side of the industry that never makes it onto the label. Fish oil oxidizes easily, bioaccumulates heavy metals, and can carry persistent organic pollutants like PCBs and dioxins. When the oil is rancid or contaminated, you're not just wasting money. You may be actively promoting the inflammation you're trying to fight. Dr. Christian Gonzalez contacted 44 fish oil brands and asked for one thing: independent third-party testing on the finished product. Real documentation. Proof. 37 companies ignored the request entirely. One refused. One opted out. Only five brands provided full transparency — and some of the biggest names in the category were nowhere to be found. In this episode, Dr. G covers:  • How oxidation turns your fish oil from anti-inflammatory to pro-inflammatory  • The heavy metals and contaminants you should always be testing for  • Why potency on the label frequently doesn't match what's in the capsule  • The five fish oil companies that earned a spot on the 2026 transparency list If you take fish oil daily, this episode will completely change how you shop for it.
