> I was reading about a fish oil preparation advertised by a physician who said that his preparation was more expensive because he used an expensive filtering device to eliminate almost all of the mercury. From what you are saying, it sounds like he was being less than honest. I can't remember the guy's name right now.

If the phrase "molecularly distilled" rings a bell, then he was being less than honest. That phrase comes from the website of the wholesaler which produces the vast majority of all fish oil products in North America. Frankly, the very term molecularly distilled is bad science. As a chemist, I cringe every time I see it.
