Omega-3 fish oil

Compare EPA and DHA amounts, allergens and daily serving sizes.

What you need to know

Fish-oil products contain different amounts of EPA and DHA. The total fish-oil amount on the front of a pack is not the same as its EPA and DHA content. Compare the actual daily serving, and check any sustainability or purity claim against the supplier’s documentation.

This is an educational guide. Sanara is not taking orders or preorders. Compare the actual product’s label, suitability and total cost before buying from a retailer.

What to check before buying

Check the label

  • EPA and DHA separately per serving
  • Fish allergens and capsule shell
  • Evidence for sourcing and testing claims
