Unlike other fish oil supplements, Essential Blend Omega-3 is:
Purely concentrated and highly effective
- Contains a pure fish oil blend of cold-water fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids — sardines, mackerel, anchovy, and salmon.
- Contains 18% EPA and 12% DHA fatty acids — essential to good heart health.
- Refined to remove toxic contaminants, yet keep the fish oil in its most natural form.
- Deodorized to remove unwanted fish oil odor and flavor.
- Guaranteed not to oxidize during processing. (Watch out for improperly processed fish oil. Fish oil that comes into contact with air, metals, light, and heat prior to encapsulation will oxidize, giving the fish oil softgel a rancid taste and smell.)
- Comes in easy-to-swallow softgel capsules — ideal for those who don’t enjoy the taste or smell of liquid fish oil.
Full of powerful health benefits
- Regularly taking heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids can help reduce the risk for coronary heart disease.

Background Information:
Heart-healthy fish oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, the critically important polyunsaturated fats with powerful healing powers. Cold-water fish are exceptionally rich sources of omega-3 fatty acids—and the colder the water, the more omega-3 fatty acids there are in the fish. Salmon, sardines, sea bass, tuna, trout, mackerel, and anchovy contain eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexanoic acid (DHA), the most potent forms of omega-3s. (Another form of omega-3 fatty acids, alpha lineolic acid, comes from plants.)
Because omega-3 oils mostly come from cold-water fish and wild game—not often found in most American diets—most people don't get enough of these essential fatty acids (EFAs). In addition, many food processors eliminate natural omega-3 oils, which have a tendency to spoil, to keep their products fresher.
Scientific evidence for the benefits of fatty fish and fish oil has been building since the late 1970s when it was discovered that the native Inuits, who ate a diet high in omega-3 fatty acids, had surprisingly low heart attack rates. Since then, thousands of studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids promote cardiovascular health—and a host of other physiological and mental functions.
Given the mounting evidence, the American Heart Association released new dietary recommendations in the fall of 2000 advising that everyone eat at least two 3-ounce servings of fatty fish every week. Others suggest three or more servings of fish per week.
If you don’t like cold-water fish or you don’t eat it two to three times a week, then consider Essential Omega-3 Fish Oil, a high-quality fish oil supplement with at least 18% EPA (180 mg) and 12% DHA (120 mg).
