Considerations:

• High Dosage:
  • This product provides a high dose of EPA+DHA (900mg per softgel). While it may be beneficial for certain health conditions, a high dose is not necessary for everyone and can increase the risk of side effects.
• EPA:DHA Ratio: The 2:1 ratio of EPA to DHA in this product is commonly recommended for heart health benefits.
• Fish Oil Source: Look for the fish source on the label and choose brands committed to sustainability.
• Potential Side Effects: Fish oil can cause fishy burps or breath in some individuals, and the risk may be higher with a high dosage.

Recommendations:

• Consult Your Doctor Before Use: This is especially important given the high dosage. Discuss if it's appropriate for you, especially if you have any underlying health conditions (bleeding disorders, high triglycerides) or take medications that interact with blood clotting (e.g., blood thinners).
• Consider Lower Dose if New to Omega-3s: If you're new to fish oil supplements, a lower dose product (around 300mg EPA+DHA) might be a better starting point to assess effectiveness and tolerability.
• Alternative Sources: Omega-3s can also be obtained from fatty fish (salmon, tuna, mackerel) including them in your diet can be a good way to boost intake.
• Follow Dosage Instructions: If your doctor approves this supplement, take it exactly as directed on the label and don't exceed the recommended daily intake (1 softgel) without consulting them.
