5% Nutrition Core Fish Oil Supplement | 2,500 mg EPA DHA Omega 3 Fatty Acid Supplement | Burpless Fish Oil for Faster Recovery, Joint Support, Heart Health (60 Servings / 120 Softgels)

Fish Oil Supplement. 860mg EPA per serving.
The important specifications of this fish oil supplement is that, per softgel, 315mg DHA and 430mg EPA (also 100mg of other Omega-3 oils). Fish oil that is rich in DHA and EPA have been shown to offer potential heart health/cardiovascular benefits. They’re associated with lowering cholesterol and triglyceride levels. “EPA and DHA may affect many aspects of cardiovascular function including inflammation, peripheral artery disease, major coronary events, and anticoagulation. EPA and DHA have been linked to promising results in prevention, weight management, and cognitive function in those with very mild Alzheimer’s disease.” (NIH).Our physician suggested taking a supplement that was high in EPA (“A new study that measured omega-3s in people’s blood found that high levels of EPA were associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular events.”). He mentioned that studies have indicated that EPA might help manage and maintain blood lipid levels within normal range.This supplement actually supplies 860mg of EPA per suggested serving (2 softgels).The product label displays Third Party Tested and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice). These aspects demonstrates attention to the integrity and purity of the supplement, and adherence to industry standards and practices. They satisfy my concerns for quality control, assurance.Based on these observations, I feel this is a credible Fish Oil Supplement. 4.5 – 4.75 stars.

Seems Expensive, But Maybe More Active Ingredient Worth The Price?
I’ve been taking fish oil capsules for over 2 decades. For the last 5+ years I’ve been using Nature’s Bounty brand with 1200mg (dose is one softgel). I’m not unhappy with those, but I’m interested in trying brands new to me that may be an improvement.These capsules promise more of the active ingredients in fish oil. The dosage is 2 gels making this bottle a 2 month supply. I’ve been taking these for a couple of weeks and I don’t notice any difference in my joints or otherwise. I’ve not had my cholesterol checked after starting this fish oil, but last time (as recent times before) it is surprisingly good for someone my weight and age, so I’m not expecting much there.Compared to my old Nature’s Bounty fish oil this is a lot more expensive – 2 months of this product is about what I’d pay for a full year of the old stuff.In my experience so far it’s pretty much just like my old and much less expensive fish oil. I expect to go back when I finish this bottle. I think it’s a fine fish oil product, just a lot more money and a snazzier package than what I had been using. Price is why I’m giving this fish oil product 4 star.

Good price for 2 month supply, pretty high in EPA/DHA
As someone with blood pressure and cholesterol issues, my doctor told me to take OTC OMEGA 3’s (preferably fish oil capsules). These capsules are fairly typical of fish oil capsules, which is to say that they are fairly large – if you have taken fish oil before these will be pretty much the same size as all of the others you have tried. The serving size is 2 capsules, which is fairly standard although for some brands a serving is 3 capsules. Personally I would prefer to only have to swallow ONE capsule since they are quite large, but I am now used to it. These are pretty high in EPA/DHA (the specific components I need for my particular issues) as you get 1490 mg (combined) of EPA/DHA in a two capsule serving. I have noticed no fishy after taste but I typically don’t anyway. I don’t taste the lemon, but perhaps that is covering up the fish oil and is why I don’t taste it??? In any case, this is a pretty good (good – not great) price for a 2 month supply, especially given the high amount of EPA/DHA the capsules contain. I would suggest doing some research on fish oil if you have never taken it before – there are different components that are good for different things… make sure you get the ‘right’ components and the right dosage for your particular needs. I hope you find this info helpful to you!
