Omega-3 benefits IBS-D gut health
We examined how omega-3 fish oil relates to gut health in patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D). This involved studying 38 individuals who started a low-FODMAP diet for 12 weeks.

Initially, those with a compromised gut barrier displayed lower omega-3 levels. Post-diet, improvements were noted, with higher omega-3 levels and better gut function. This suggests that omega-3 fatty acids play a crucial role in enhancing gut integrity and may aid in managing IBS-D symptoms.

Fatty acids affect IBS metabolism
Our study focused on understanding how eicosapentaenoic acid, alongside other fatty acids, influences irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). We designed an experiment where we treated both maternally separated and non-separated rats with Bifidobacterium breve and explored its effect on colonic sensitivity and fatty acid metabolism over a period of seven weeks.

Throughout our research, we observed significant changes in fatty acid profiles, especially in liver and serum tissues, after administering Bifidobacterium breve. Notably, in the maternally separated rats, the treatment appeared to enhance levels of palmitoleic acid, arachidonic acid, and docosahexaenoic acid in various tissues, which are fatty acids that others believe could be influential in managing symptoms related to IBS.

However, while eicosapentaenoic acid was present in the research context, it was largely studied in combination with other treatments. This made it challenging to evaluate its isolated effect on IBS directly. Thus, while we noted some positive metabolic changes with our treatment approach, the specific impact of eicosapentaenoic acid on IBS symptoms wasn’t definitively established.

Overall, our findings suggest that while Bifidobacterium breve and fatty acid supplementation may influence host fatty acid metabolism, further focused studies are necessary to clarify the role of eicosapentaenoic acid in managing irritable bowel syndrome.

No gastrointestinal issues
Decent Omega-3! This is an excellent source of pure omega-3 from a reputable manufacturer. My gastrointestinal tract tends to be sensitive, but thankfully, I experienced no negative reactions while taking this omega, which is a significant achievement for me. There was no belching or upset stomach whatsoever. I will buy it again.

Tone is good! After three months of taking this product, I've noticed positive effects on my skin health within the first week. What surprised me most was the smoothness of my bowel movements. The flavour is refreshing with citrus notes. As it contributes positively to my wellbeing, I intend to continue using it in the future. I highly recommend it!

I might find it hard to manage without this product! It has been over three months since I started using it, and I can safely say that the days without proper bowel movement are dwindling. I will definitely keep repurchasing this!

Bowel movements improved
I purchased this junior version for my child, who appreciates that it has no smell. Although it's slightly pricey, I bought it on my child's recommendation, and it's proven to be very effective! The pills are large and lemon-scented, leaving a pleasant lemon aroma even after drinking. I've noticed an improvement in my child's bowel movements. I highly recommend it, but the price has led me to rate it four stars.
