omega-3
Why is omega-3 important?
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fats the body cannot make on its own, so they have to come from diet or supplementation.The two most studied are EPA and DHA. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart, and DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and normal vision. A daily serving of two capsules provides 1,334 mg of omega-3, including a concentrated amount of EPA, DHA and DPA.

Frequently asked questions
Does it taste fishy?
The oil is purified and the softgels are made to be swallowed whole, so most people notice no fishy aftertaste. Taking them with a meal can help further.
Is the fish oil sustainably sourced?
Yes. The oil comes from fisheries certified by Friend of the Sea, an independent sustainability certification for seafood.
Can I take it alongside other supplements?
Omega-3 is commonly taken as part of a daily routine with supplements such as vitamin D3 or magnesium. If you take prescribed medication, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.
How large are the capsules and how long does a pack last?
These are standard fish-oil softgels. The daily serving is two capsules, so a 120-capsule pack lasts 60 days.
What is omega-3 good for?
The two omega-3 fatty acids with recognised functions are EPA and DHA. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart, and DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and normal vision – the heart effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA, the brain and vision effects with a daily intake of 250 mg of DHA. The body cannot make these fats on its own, so they have to come from food or a supplement. A daily dose of two softgels provides 668 mg of EPA and 500 mg of DHA, 1,334 mg of omega-3 in total.
Which foods contain omega-3?
Oily fish – salmon, mackerel, sardines, herring and trout – are the main food sources of EPA and DHA. Flaxseed, chia seeds, walnuts and rapeseed oil contain ALA, a shorter-chain omega-3 that is a different fatty acid from EPA and DHA; the functions described above are those of EPA and DHA. A supplement is intended to top up what your diet provides, particularly if oily fish is not a regular part of it, rather than to replace it. Two softgels a day provide 668 mg of EPA and 500 mg of DHA.
Fish oil, cod liver oil or krill oil – what is the difference?
They are different sources of the same fatty acids. Cod liver oil is pressed from the liver of cod and also carries vitamins A and D; krill oil comes from small crustaceans; fish oil, as here, is taken from the body of oily fish and concentrated. This product is an 80% fish oil concentrate in triglyceride form, giving 1,668 mg of fish oil per two-softgel dose, of which 1,334 mg is omega-3 – 668 mg EPA, 500 mg DHA and 83.4 mg DPA. The functions described above depend on the amount of EPA and DHA you take in, not on which oil it comes from.
