Sorry I couldn't answer sooner... we lost all power yesterday in 90 degree heat no less, and I lost my DSL and computer ability.

It was just restored. I had been typing an answer to this thread
in fact when it "went".

When you say, odor...do you mean bad breath? Fishy breath?

Or body odor?

Some people reflux fish oil, esp when starting out, and once the stomach heals up some, the burping goes away.
There are alternatives:
1) enteric coated fish oils are available, and Costco and SAM's usually have them

2) Krill oil is new, and very potent, so a little capsule does the work of a big fish oil one. I use Mega Red now as an experiment to see if that is really true. I'll know in fall when I have my tests run. But there is no reflux of any fish flavor from Krill oil, at least for me, and the capsules are much smaller.

If you have body odor, this may be genetic. Some people have a problem metabolizing fish. They don't even have to eat it to have this odor.
Here is more on that with some suggestions too:
