❓ Frequently Asked Questions
1. What are EPA and DHA?
EPA and DHA are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids found primarily in marine oils. They perform different but complementary roles in cardiovascular, brain, retinal, and general wellness.
2. How much EPA and DHA does each softgel provide?
Each softgel provides EPA 180 mg and DHA 120 mg, for a combined total of 300 mg EPA+DHA.
3. Is 1,000 mg Fish Oil the same as 1,000 mg omega-3?
No. Total Fish Oil weight is different from the amount of EPA and DHA. Consumers should compare products using the declared EPA and DHA quantities rather than only the total Fish Oil amount.
4. Is this really a “Double Strength” formula?
EPA 180 mg plus DHA 120 mg is a commonly used standard concentration. “Double Strength” should only be used if the product provides twice the EPA+DHA of a clearly identified regular-strength product.
5. Can Omega-3 Fish Oil lower high triglycerides?
Prescription-level or medically supervised omega-3 intake may be used for high triglycerides, but this supplement is not intended to treat hypertriglyceridaemia. Medical doses are different from general wellness servings.
6. When should I take the softgel?
Take it after a meal, preferably one containing dietary fat, or follow the approved label directions.
7. How can I reduce fishy burps?
Take the softgel with a meal, swallow it whole, and store it as directed. Persistent strong fishy odour or taste may indicate poor tolerance or oxidation.
8. Is this product vegetarian?
No. It contains Fish Oil and normally uses a gelatin softgel shell. It must display the applicable non-vegetarian symbol.
9. Can I take it with a multivitamin or another omega-3 product?
It may be used with many general supplements, but total EPA, DHA, Vitamin A, Vitamin D, and anticoagulant effects should be reviewed—especially if another fish-liver or omega-3 product is used.
10. Who should consult a healthcare professional before use?
Pregnant or lactating women, children, individuals taking medication, and people with fish allergy, bleeding disorders, diabetes, liver disease, heart-rhythm disorders, or another medical condition should obtain professional advice before use.
