What are the signs that fish oil is fresh?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
4 signs: 1- the container is not past expiration, 2- the capsules smell only slightly "fishy, " 3- the capsules are a pale yellow color, and 4- the capsules are firm to light pressure. If all four of these qualities are present, the capsules are likely fresh.

Doubts ?: The only way is to get the fish oil from a reputable vendor or pharmacy.
