What does fish oil do for the body?

Fish Oil contains the Omega-3 Fatty Acids Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) that help support heart health, brain health and eye health. However, the body does not make EPA and DHA on its own, so it is best to get these nutrients from food sources.[2] Since not everyone regularly consumes fatty fish, an Omega-3†† from fish oil supplement can provide the body with Omega-3s.[1]†

How much fish oil should I take per day?

Current dietary recommendations are for adults to consume two servings of oily fish per week, and that equates to approximately 500 mg of EPA and DHA Omega-3s per day‡. Nature Made® Omega-3†† from Fish Oil Minis with 1000 mg of Omega-3 Fatty Acids†† are a great way to get an EPA supplement and DHA supplement together in 2 daily softgels.

Where does Omega-3 come from?

The Omega-3s EPA and DHA are found in all seafood and algae but are especially high in cold-water, fatty fish like salmon, halibut, tuna, mackerel, cod and sardines. Some plants contain the Omega-3 fatty acid Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA), which is an essential fatty acid the body can convert to DHA and EPA, but the conversion rate is low.[3]

Does this Omega-3 supplement contain mercury?

Nature Made’s Omega-3 fish oil†† has been purified to remove mercury to ensure levels below 0.1 ppm.▲

Can I eat fish and take Omega-3 fish oil supplements?

Nature Made® Omega-3†† from Fish Oil Minis contain 1,000 mg of Omega-3 Fatty Acids†† and the FDA recommends consuming no more than 5g (5,000 mg) of Omega-3s per day.[2] It is always best to talk with your health care provider about taking an Omega-3 supplement from fish oil for heart health to fill in potential nutrient gaps.†
