Excellent! This isn't my first time ordering Omega from this company; the results are consistently pleasing. I prefer to take Omega in capsule form, although the taste of liquid Omega is still quite acceptable—my daughter enjoyed it. We take it with my husband in the morning with a meal, alongside D3 K2. I would like to highlight that the Omega is comfortably tolerated, as there is no belching or bloating. The capsules are easy to swallow, despite their size.

We conducted a study to see if omega-3 fatty acids could help people with major depressive disorder as a standalone treatment. Over 12 weeks, 60 participants took either omega-3 supplements or a placebo.

Results showed that those taking omega-3 had lower depression scores at various points throughout the study. While there were hints of improved outcomes in terms of remission and response rates, these weren't statistically significant.

Overall, omega-3 fatty acids could be a promising alternative, but further research is necessary to confirm their effectiveness.

I have tried numerous omega brands and this one is by far my favourite. If you take 2 capsules daily, it lasts two months, which is quite economical. I experience a light citrus burp instead of fishy, which is a plus. It has improved my hair and nails and helped my post-Covid depression significantly. The packaging is excellent and the capsules, though large and straw-yellow, are easy to swallow. Drinking omega is advisable for everyone, as it truly enhances health and mood.

We examined how eicosapentaenoic acid, specifically a compound called 5,6-dihydroxy-8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z-eicosatetraenoic acid (5,6-DiHETE), affects diarrhea caused by inflammation in mice. In our study, the mice were given a substance that induces colitis, known as dextran sulfate sodium (DSS), and then treated with different doses of 5,6-DiHETE orally.

What we found was promising: the administration of both 150 and 600 micrograms of 5,6-DiHETE daily helped to speed up the recovery from diarrhea. After just a few days of treatment, we observed significant improvements in the mice’s condition. The daily doses led to less inflammation in the colon and a notable reduction in the symptoms of diarrhea associated with DSS-induced colitis.

We also measured how much of this compound remained in the mice's blood after taking it, finding that it peaked within half an hour of administration. This suggests that 5,6-DiHETE works relatively quickly to start affecting the inflammation. Overall, our research indicates that eicosapentaenoic acid holds potential as a beneficial treatment for inflammatory bowel diseases that cause diarrhea.

We embarked on a study to find out how dietary eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) could help children suffering from atopic dermatitis, a common form of eczema. In a randomized triple-blind clinical trial, 48 children with this condition were divided into two groups—one received 250 mg of EPA twice daily, while the other received a placebo for four weeks.

Our observations showed noticeable improvements in those who took EPA. After just two weeks, participants in the EPA group reported a reduction in their SCORAD scores, which are used to measure the severity of atopic dermatitis. The scores went down significantly compared to the placebo group. After four weeks, the number of children needing corticosteroids to manage their symptoms was also lower in the EPA group.

Despite these positive results, both groups reported few adverse effects, indicating that EPA supplementation is generally well-received. Overall, we conclude that adding EPA to the diet may be an effective and safe strategy for reducing eczema severity in children.

We investigated the impact of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) on hypertension, a condition characterized by elevated blood pressure that can lead to serious health issues. The study focused on a special compound called 5,6-diHETE lactone (EPA-L), derived from EPA, which we observed to promote better blood vessel function. This compound was tested on hypertensive rats and showed a significant reduction in blood pressure.

Interestingly, we found that the way EPA-L works isn’t through increasing levels of nitric oxide like some may expect. Instead, we discovered that it triggers a unique signaling pathway involving G-protein-coupled receptors. This pathway activates key cellular processes in the endothelial cells lining our blood vessels, allowing them to relax and dilate, thereby contributing to lower blood pressure. In vitro experiments on human endothelial cells confirmed these findings, providing further evidence for the effectiveness of EPA-L.

Overall, our research positions EPA-L as a promising metabolite from eicosapentaenoic acid, demonstrating potential benefits in managing hypertension and promoting vascular health.

We aimed to investigate how eicosapentaenoic acid ethyl ester, a form of omega-3 fatty acid derived from fish oil, influences thyroid function in patients with hypothyroidism. Interestingly, while it has generally been observed that plasma free fatty acid (FFA) levels remain normal in hypothyroid individuals, our findings indicated that some patients exhibited elevated FFA concentrations. This was compelling, as those with higher FFA levels showed milder symptoms of thyroid dysfunction compared to others with lower levels.

To delve deeper, we tested the effects of eicosapentaenoic acid in an animal model using hypothyroid rats. By administering eicosapentaenoic acid ethyl ester to these rats, we observed that it effectively inhibited the decline of thyroid hormone levels caused by a substance called MMI. Additionally, we noted that it positively influenced the structure of the thyroid follicles in these rats.

Our study suggests that eicosapentaenoic acid may not only support thyroid function but could also have potential benefits for managing conditions related to hypothyroidism. This opens up exciting possibilities for further research into natural treatments for thyroid health.

We investigated the potential benefits of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in fighting Alzheimer's disease (AD) through a novel intranasal administration method. By using a specially formulated nanoemulsion that protects DHA from oxidation, we aimed to enhance its delivery to the brain. In our study, we administered this DHA-rich nanoemulsion to J20 mice, a well-known transgenic model for AD.

The results were promising. After treatment, the mice showed notable improvements in their well-being and memory performance, which we measured through their ability to navigate spatial tasks. Additionally, we observed a significant reduction in harmful amyloid deposits, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation within their brain tissues. This positive outcome could potentially stem from DHA's ability to affect specific processes in the brain, such as the inactivation of GSK3β, a kinase associated with AD.

Overall, our findings suggest that intranasal DHA treatment not only has therapeutic effects but may also modify the progression of Alzheimer's disease. Considering that DHA has already demonstrated safety in humans, we believe there is a strong case for conducting clinical trials to explore this approach further for Alzheimer's patients.

We conducted a double-blind randomized controlled trial to understand how prenatal supplementation of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) might influence infant health, particularly concerning the common cold. Pregnant women were given either a daily dose of 400 mg of DHA or a placebo starting at 18 to 22 weeks of gestation until childbirth.

Caregivers then reported on their infants’ health at 1, 3, and 6 months, sharing details about common illness symptoms. We found that DHA supplementation appeared to reduce the number of colds at one month and also seemed to lessen the duration of various cold symptoms in infants. Specifically, infants in the DHA group experienced fewer cold symptoms and had shorter durations of cough and wheezing.

While the overall occurrence of specific illness symptoms was similar between the DHA and placebo groups, DHA did bring about noteworthy benefits. At 1 month, infants in the DHA group had a 26% shorter duration of cough and 30% shorter wheezing; however, they experienced a longer duration of rash.

Furthermore, by the time the infants reached 3 months, those whose mothers took DHA were ill for 14% less time overall. At 6 months, the DHA group showed significantly reduced durations of several illness indicators, although they did experience longer episodes of vomiting.

This study suggests that prenatal DHA not only seems to impact the occurrence of colds in children but may also play a role in the duration of symptoms over the first half-year of life.

We aimed to understand how eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) affects psoriasis, a skin condition known for causing redness, irritation, and thickened skin. By creating skin models that reflect both healthy and psoriatic conditions, we were able to assess the impact of EPA directly on lipid profiles—a key factor in skin health.

Our research revealed that in psoriatic skin models, there was a notable increase in certain fatty acids linked to inflammation, such as arachidonic acid (AA) and linoleic acid (LA). However, when we supplemented the media with EPA, we noticed a significant shift. The levels of beneficial omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), rose in both epidermal and dermal tissues.

More importantly, the addition of EPA helped to balance the production of lipid mediators in the skin. We observed increases in several anti-inflammatory molecules, such as prostaglandin E (PGE) and 12-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid (12-HEPE), indicating a move toward a more stable and healthier skin environment. These results suggest that EPA could play an important role in managing psoriasis by promoting a healthier lipid balance in the skin, potentially easing symptoms and encouraging skin healing.

This isn't my usual brand, but I adore the extra bottle. I've always heard this brand is of higher quality regarding fish oil. I've used it for years to benefit my skin, hair, heart, and brain health. I definitely notice my skin suffers when I skip them. This product also helps lower my inflammation due to my autoimmune conditions, including Hashimoto's and celiac. I did not detect any fishy taste, and while the capsules are quite large, they remain manageable. Alternatives like liquids are available if you struggle with swallowing larger capsules.

We aimed to see how omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil could ease nausea and other symptoms in patients with advanced lung cancer suffering from Systemic Immune-Metabolic Syndrome (SIMS). The study involved a small group of patients divided into treatment groups, some receiving fish oil and others a combination of fish oil with celecoxib.

After six weeks, we noted improvements in appetite, fatigue, and lower inflammation markers in both fish oil groups. Interestingly, those who received fish oil alongside celecoxib showed even greater benefits in weight gain and muscle strength. These findings suggest that fish oil may help manage certain symptoms associated with nausea but not specifically reduce it alone.

No more fishy burps! I’ve tried numerous fish oil supplements, all of which have caused unpleasant fishy burps or horrid reflux. I had given up until I read a review about this product that worked for similar issues. To my amazement, even on an empty stomach, I have experienced no nasty aftertaste, burps, or nausea with these. I’m now on my third jar and have even encouraged my mother and sister to try them. Over a few months, I’ve noticed significant improvements, including reduced inflammation and better cognitive function.

We examined the effects of omega-3 supplementation on rheumatoid arthritis through a meta-analysis of 18 randomized controlled trials involving over 1,000 patients.

Our findings showed that omega-3 increased beneficial fatty acids and decreased triglyceride levels and tender joint counts.

However, while there were some reductions in inflammation markers, these changes weren't statistically significant, suggesting that omega-3 might not drastically alter disease activity overall.

We compared how different types of forage affected asthma in Thoroughbred racehorses. Our focus was on assessing dust exposure, airway health, and the presence of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), an omega-3 fatty acid known for its anti-inflammatory properties. The horses were randomly assigned to three diets: dry hay, steamed hay, or haylage for a period of six weeks.

Throughout the study, we observed that horses fed steamed hay and haylage had significantly lower dust exposure compared to those that consumed dry hay. Interestingly, those on the haylage diet not only showed reduced levels of neutrophils in their bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, indicating better airway health, but they also had an increase in the ratio of anti-inflammatory to pro-inflammatory lipids, particularly EPA.

In fact, the horses on haylage had higher ratios of eicosapentaenoic acid compared to both their baseline measurements and horses on the other diets. This suggests that incorporating haylage could be beneficial for managing asthma symptoms in racehorses. Overall, it appears that haylage may help improve respiratory health by reducing inflammation linked to asthma through its higher anti-inflammatory lipid profile.

Carlson Labs' omega-3 enhances the absorption of calcium and phosphorus for better bones and teeth. Fish oil improves vision, aids the mucous membranes, benefits the digestive and nervous systems, and enhances skin and hair health. Most importantly, it provides essential polyunsaturated acids not made by the body. These fatty acids help prevent fatigue, boost performance, and positively affect brain function. Introducing fish oil to children early can lower the risk of allergies and asthma. For those not consuming fatty fish, omega-3 in soft gelatin capsules is available.

Omega 3, which I used in my regimen against hair loss and for growth, has been effective. My hair is long, reaching my waist, but I experienced severe hair loss this winter. After extensive research and consulting my endocrinologist, I adopted a successful routine over three months. Consequently, my hair stopped shedding significantly, and my hairdresser remarked on the improved volume. My regimen included collagen peptides, vitamin C, Omega 3, and various vitamins across meals. By starting this plan, I ensured I had no deficiencies in iron or vitamin D, which is crucial. I have hypothyroidism but do not take hormonal treatments. I hope you find this information useful.

We examined the impact of omega-3 fatty acids, often found in fish oil, on heart attack risks, particularly in patients with high triglyceride levels. The studies indicate that while omega-3s can effectively lower triglycerides and reduce certain cardiovascular disease outcomes, including fatal heart attacks, their overall benefit remains debated. Despite extensive research demonstrating some positive outcomes, many experts still question the magnitude of their effects on heart attack prevention. Improved guidance on omega-3 supplementation is still evolving as new evidence emerges.

We examined the relationship between docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and osteoporosis using a method called 2-sample Mendelian randomization. This approach allowed us to investigate if higher levels of DHA could be a risk factor for osteoporosis.

Our findings revealed a causal tie: increased blood levels of DHA were indeed linked to a higher risk of developing osteoporosis. Specifically, for each standard deviation increase in DHA levels, the risk for osteoporosis rose by nearly 10%. We found this connection to be statistically significant, with a P-value of 0.033.

However, it's important to point out that the genetic correlation between DHA and osteoporosis was weak, suggesting that this relationship might not be heavily influenced by our genes. While these results indicate that DHA levels are a risk factor for osteoporosis, the underlying mechanisms are still unclear, highlighting the need for further research in this area.

We discovered that a diet enriched with omega-3 fatty acids can effectively reduce symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis (AC) in mice. This reduction occurred without influencing the typical immune responses usually associated with allergies. Instead, omega-3s worked by changing the lipid molecules linked to inflammation.

Notably, these fatty acids completely suppressed itching near the eyes and significantly decreased the presence of eosinophils, cells commonly involved in allergic reactions. However, total serum IgE levels and T2 cytokine expression remained unchanged, suggesting that omega-3s tackle AC symptoms in a unique way.

We explored the impact of a high omega-3, low omega-6 diet with fish oil on men with prostate cancer under active surveillance. In a year-long study involving 100 participants, those following the omega-rich regimen showed a notable 15% decrease in the Ki-67 index, a key marker for cancer progression.

In contrast, the control group experienced an increase in this index. While the diet showed promise in slowing down potential cancer growth, no significant differences were noted in other cancer-related measurements. Our findings encourage further research on dietary strategies in prostate cancer management.

We examined the relationship between plasma omega-3 levels and heart failure (HF), focusing on how this affects mortality in patients with existing HF. Our analysis of the UK Biobank, which included nearly 272,000 participants without HF, showed that higher omega-3 levels were linked to a 21% lower risk of developing HF over nearly 14 years.

For those already diagnosed with HF, higher omega-3 levels significantly reduced the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality by around 50%. These findings suggest that boosting omega-3 intake could be beneficial for heart health.

We explored how eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) might help in treating intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD), a major contributor to back pain. Research highlights that this condition often involves endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and breakdown of the extracellular matrix (ECM), key processes that worsen IDD. Our investigation demonstrated that EPA can promote autophagy, a process that helps cells clean up and maintain balance within the ECM.

Through our experiments, we treated nucleus pulposus cells—cells in the discs that often suffer from degeneration—with EPA. We observed that EPA not only boosted autophagy but also suppressed the harmful effects of ER stress, reducing cell death and limiting ECM degradation. Additionally, we utilized a rat model of IDD to see if these protective effects translated into a real-world setting. The findings indicated that EPA improved the health of the discs and effectively slowed down the progression of IDD in these rats.

In summary, this research highlights the potential of EPA as a therapeutic option for managing back pain related to disc degeneration. Our results suggest that EPA could play an important role in supporting the health of intervertebral discs and mitigating some of the common issues associated with chronic back pain.

We explored the effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on cadmium (Cd) exposure, a common pollutant that risks human health through the food chain. Our investigation focused on how DHA might help mitigate the harmful effects of Cd, particularly by looking at changes in gut microbiota.

The study involved examining mice that had been exposed to cadmium. We observed that DHA significantly boosted the amount of cadmium expelled in feces while reducing the levels of cadmium accumulated in various organs. Our findings highlighted a particularly encouraging increase in Parabacteroides, a beneficial bacteria in the gut that appeared to play a crucial role in this process.

We noted that the representative strain of Parabacteroides not only demonstrated the ability to reduce Cd toxicity but also helped repair gut damage inflicted by cadmium exposure. Furthermore, DHA effectively reduced cadmium levels in organs such as the liver, spleen, and kidneys, leading to a noticeable increase in cadmium excretion.

Overall, our results suggest that DHA may have significant potential in promoting the excretion of cadmium in instances of exposure. This insight offers a fascinating avenue for considering DHA as a supportive treatment option for handling heavy metal toxicity.
