Fish Oil 1200mg

1200mg fish oil but only 600mg is EPA+DHA (the parts that matter). Need two softgels to hit studied doses. Likely ethyl ester form (absorbs 70% less). No purity certification. Budget omega-3 that does the minimum job.

6.0/10
GOOD

Basic fish oil with 600mg combined EPA+DHA per softgel. Most people need 2 softgels to hit the 1000mg+ studied dose. Ethyl ester form absorbs 70% less than triglyceride. Cheap but you need double the dose.
