Dotsie, Nature's Made makes a good fish oil that you do not burp. It is what we have taken for many years, and I have not ever burped it. I also take their multi-vitamin for women over 50, Super B Complex, Magnesium, Acidophilus, Evening Primrose Oil, Vit D-3 and 2 baby aspirins.

Search for quality, dots... and remember the daily recommended allowance is considerably low. This being pertinent, it might do you good to seek professional help to evaluate your true needs. We are all different, with different health issues and concerns. It's cost effective to get what you need, instead of just getting because of a common push. QUALITY over price, if you want the desired effect --- you will more than likely get the 'bang for your buck.' I pay more for my multi, and only have to take 1 of the 3 per day that is recommended.
Some of the best things one can do for themselves: Quit smoking Quit coffee Quit sugar and sugar substitutes Quit white flour Quit milk (unless you can get fresh or raw) Quit (or limit extensively) processed foods Limit salt Choose organic Exercise

Here's another source for supplements: One of the pickiest people on the planet (my uncle) orders his supplements from them. There is a promotion going on... promo code BANG409I've not tried their products, but I ordered a catalog and am looking through it seriously.

Dots, you might want to consider Krill oil in place of Fish Oil. It contains an antioxidant called astaxanthin, which can cross the blood-brain barrier, where it is suppose to protect the eyes, brain and central nervous system from free radical damage. From what I understand, there's no fishy taste, either.
There are some precautions with quality fish and krill oils. Might check into those, too, before making a decision.
Then there's Flax Seed Oil to consider.

I believe in supplements, unless of course you eat perfectly all of the time and never have had stress in your life. I have within the last few months began using Vivix, a product that I believe promotes itself.
