I realize that GNC may provide ON with guidelines for supplement manufacturing and that doesn't guarantee that ON's are of the same quality, but I would rather not deal with that possibility.

That is just one particular example of why I choose not to consume Optimum Nutrition products and highly suggest others also do not. There are enough other reputable out there. But, as with anything that is just my opinion.

ON was only contracted to manufacture powdered drink mixes for GNC's ProPerformance line of products. Unless I'm mistaken (always possible), the ProPerformance line does not include GNC Fish Oil.

Oh no!!! I live in Malaysia, and there are difficulties getting fish oil here! They don't even sell the liquid form. I have also just bought a whole load of the ON as GNC are one of the better known supplement stores.......... wah!
