Omega 3 Supplements

Omega 3 fats are essential, which means your body can't make them and has to get them from food. The two most useful types, EPA and DHA, come mainly from oily fish such as salmon, mackerel and sardines, so if you eat these less than once a week, a supplement is the simplest way to keep up. This collection gives you a high-strength fish oil and a plant-based alternative.

How much EPA and DHA do you need?

To help your heart work normally, you need at least 250 mg of EPA and DHA a day, and the same amount of DHA on its own helps maintain normal brain function and normal vision. A serving of our omega 3 fish oil gives you 1,100 mg of EPA and DHA combined, including 440 mg of DHA. When you compare products, look for these two figures on the label, because a capsule described as 1,000 mg of fish oil can contain far less actual omega 3.

Is Fish oil or plant-based omega 3 better?

Fish oil gives you EPA and DHA directly, which makes omega 3 fish oil the choice for the highest amount of both. Plant oils such as hemp seed oil give you ALA, a different omega 3 that your body turns into EPA and DHA in only small amounts, along with omega 6 and 9. If you avoid fish, vegan omega 3 6 9 capsules are a plant-based way to get all three into your diet.

Who are omega 3 supplements for?

Omega 3 supplements suit anyone who rarely eats oily fish, including people who don't like the taste, vegetarians and vegans. Men and women need the same amount, and many people take omega 3 alongside vitamin D in winter, as oily fish is a good source of both. If you're pregnant or take blood-thinning medicine, speak to your GP before you start.

Omega 3 FAQs

Which omega-3 supplement is the best in the UK? +

The best omega 3 supplement gives you a clearly stated, meaningful amount of EPA and DHA per serving, is purified to remove contaminants and comes from a sustainable source. Our omega 3 fish oil ticks all three, with over 1,000 mg of EPA and DHA in two capsules.

Does the NHS recommend omega-3 supplements? +

UK guidance is to eat at least two portions of fish a week, one of them oily. If you don’t like fish or can’t manage that quantity, a supplement such as omega 3 fish oil helps fill the gap.

What are the signs you need omega-3? +

There’s no single symptom that tells you you’re low. The clearest sign is your diet, so if you rarely eat oily fish, or you’re vegetarian or vegan, you’re unlikely to be getting much EPA or DHA. A daily fish oil or plant-based omega 3 supplement is a simple way to change that.

What happens to your body when you start taking omega-3? +

EPA and DHA build up in the membranes of your cells over several weeks of daily use. From there, they help your heart work normally and help maintain normal brain function and vision, which is why omega 3 fish oil is something to take every day rather than now and then.
