A. A fishy taste is only characteristic of lesser quality fish oils. Ascenta’s supplements undergo processing that removes volatile compounds that can cause unpleasant odors or taste. A fishy odor or taste is also caused by rancidity. Rancidity occurs when the oil starts to oxidize (breakdown). Ascenta’s animal omega-3 products contain a proprietary natural antioxidant blend that protects it against oxidation.
