Value for money

The fish oil-derived Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are particularly important in the continued support of cardiovascular and mental health, as well as being beneficial to joint mobility. The recommended minimum intake is 450mg EPA / DHA per day, with a scale of increased benefits up to around 2000mg per day.

This product is a mixture of Sunflower, Fish and Evening Primrose Oils, flavoured with Lemon/Lime Oil to improve the taste. It provides 350mg DHA / EPA per two teaspoons. As such this product is unlikely to deliver the benefits associated with increased intake of Omega-3. To achieve the recommended level of 450mg EPA/DHA per day, additional supplementation or intake of oily fish is advised. This product advises double the dosage for the first 12 weeks, which would provide above the minimum RDA EPA / DHA.

The product also provides 50mg GLA from Evening Primrose Oil, which may provide some additional benefit. The product is, however, very expensive.
