Frequently Asked Questions
How much EPA and DHA does Mega Omega 3 provide?
According to the official nutritional information, 2 capsules provide 400 mg of EPA and 300 mg of DHA, within a total of 800 mg of omega-3s derived from 1,000 mg of fish oil.
Why do the amounts of EPA and DHA matter, rather than just the total amount of fish oil?
Fish oil contains various fatty acids. Its total quantity is not equivalent to the amount of EPA and DHA, the content of which varies between supplements. Therefore, comparing products requires looking at these specific values.
Are these the same omega-3s found in flaxseed?
Flaxseed primarily provides ALA, whereas fish oil provides EPA and DHA. The body converts some ALA into EPA and DHA, but this conversion process is limited.
Is it suitable for a vegan diet or for those with a fish allergy?
No. It contains fish oil and gelatin; therefore, it is not vegan and is unsuitable for individuals with a fish allergy.
