Description Nature's Lab Triple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil provides essential EPA and DHA to help support cardiovascular health, a healthy mood, and restore fatty acid balance.* Nature's Lab Triple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil provides essential omega-3 fatty acids from wild-caught, sustainable fish. Even with three times the amount of EPA and DHA fatty acids that conventional strength fish oil contains, this supplement is still a convenient, two-per-day serving.* Omega 3 Fatty Acids Omega-3 fatty acids are a group of polyunsaturated fatty acids. These essential fats support healthy tissue function throughout the body.* Because the body cannot synthesize these fats, it is important to obtain them in the diet.* The average person, however, takes in too much saturated N-6 animal fats in their diet and not enough Omega-3 fatty acids. This leads to an unhealthy N-6 to N-3 fatty acid ratio.* Nature's Lab Triple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil contains 650 mg EPA and 650 mg DHA per serving to help optimize and balance fatty acid intake.* That's over 1,200 mg of the critical omega-3 fatty acids your body needs! EPA & DHA Fatty Acids EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are fatty acids found in cold-water fish. These unsaturated fats help lower triglycerides to support cardiovascular health.* Many people do not eat enough Omega-3-rich foods like fatty fish, walnuts, or soybeans to maintain healthy levels.* Supplementing with fish oil can help restore EPA and DHA to healthy levels and our easy-to-take softgels make supplementing your diet simple.* Benefits Promotes a healthy mood by supporting brain function and cognitive health* Promotes circulation, blood flow, and heart health* Omega-3 supports joint and skin health* Benefits of Fish Oil Omega-3 supplements can promote a healthy heart, brain health, and cognitive function as well as circulation, blood flow, immune health, and overall vitality. Additional benefits include joint and skin health, and more.* Omega-3 Bioavailability and Absorption Nature’s Lab uses an ethyl ester form of Omega-3 Fish Oil, meaning our fish oil is refined by a process called "molecular distillation" to concentrate the omega-3 fatty acids. With an enteric coating, our fish oil nutritional supplements are designed for better absorption without having a fishy taste. It remains relatively stable in stomach acidity and is broken down by digestive enzymes in the small intestine and then absorbed before being transported through the bloodstream. Sustainable Sourcing Nature's Lab Triple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil is sourced from small species of wild-caught sustainable oily fish, such as sardines and anchovies. The oil is then purified by molecular distillation to remove dioxin, PCBs, and mercury, all of which are heavy metals found in fish. The potency and purity of each bottle that comes out of our manufacturing facility are carefully checked, with over 90 quality control checkpoints in place. This ensures that all of the original benefits of the raw source oil are retained in a high-quality final product. Suggested Use As a dietary supplement, take 2 softgels, one time daily, preferably with a meal, or as directed by a qualified healthcare practitioner. Warnings: Pregnant or lactating women and people with known medical conditions and/or taking drugs should consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner prior to taking dietary supplements. Discontinue use and consult your doctor if any adverse reactions occur. Store in a cool, dry place out of reach from children. FAQs Q. Is omega-3 the same as fish oil? A. Not exactly. Omega-3s are nutrients that can be found in fish oil and other sources. Omega-3s are polyunsaturated fats and are essential nutrients, meaning your body does not create them itself. There are three main types - two of which are in our Triple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil capsules. EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are marine omega-3s and the other is ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) which is found in plants. Q. Can omega-3 cause acne? A. There are studies suggesting it worsens acne for some and helps for others. More research is necessary to better understand if it serves as a cause of acne. Omega-3s are essential to the internal process of the body and can support balanced hydration. If you notice worsening conditions while taking an Omega-3 supplement, stop use immediately and consult your healthcare provider. Q. Do fish oil supplements cause gas? A. Yes, fish oil supplements can cause gas. This is because the high fat content of fish oil can trigger intestinal issues resulting in “fish burps” or gas. Taking fish oil with food can help reduce these unwanted side effects. Q. Is omega-3 an essential nutrient? A. Yes, omega-3s are essential nutrients. Essential nutrients cannot be made by your body, so it’s important to make sure you’re getting enough through your diet and supplementation.
