One of the fastest growing, if not the fastest growing segment of the nutritional supplement industry is that of Omega 3 supplements, or what are otherwise known as fish oil supplements. The health benefits of increasing your intake of DHA and EPA, the 2 most important of the Omega3 fats known as essential fatty acids, are well known. If you remember to take those capsules of fish oil, 1000 milligrams of packed goodness awaits you.
It’s probably true to say that there is more evidence of the health giving of the health giving properties of the omega 3 essential fatty acids found in fish oil than is the case for any other nutritional supplement in history. For this reason sales of Omega 3 capsules are exploding at an exponential rate. And for good reason.
There are so many health benefits to adding some omega 3 capsules to your breakfast that it’s difficult to list them all in one article. But probably primary amongst them is that there are a wide range of heart health benefits including a reduction in the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke and a reduction in the risk of death from heart attack as well as a range of other health benefits.
But today I wanted to consider a specific point. You see almost all fish oil capsules come as a 1000 mg softgel. And for this reason many consumers simply assume that finding the cheapest 1000 mg fish oil capsules means that they are getting the best value.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
I have already mentioned DHA and EPA. These are the 2 most important essential fatty acids known as the omega 3 fatty acids. Of these DHA is the more important. When you buy a fish oil 1000 mg capsule you are actually buying the DHA and EPA in that capsule. Because that is what is giving you the health benefits. And there are wide variations in the amount of those 2 active components that are found in the different brands of fish oil 1000 mg capsules available.
It is quite inaccurate to assume that if one brand of omega 3 1000 mg supplements is cheaper than another then that brand represents better value. Without comparing the amount DHA and EPA found in each individual capsule is quite possible to come to any conclusion about which capsule represents the best value.
I’ll give you an example. If brand 1 of 1000 mg fish oil capsules has 10% DHA, and is half the price of brand 2 of 1000 mg fish oil capsules, does it represent better value?
No it does not represent better value, because although the capsules are half the price you are only getting one 3rd of the active component. In fact they represent poor value. To get the same amount of DHA from the cheaper capsules would require that you take more of these capsules than the more expensive ones.
In fact it is virtually impossible to compare the different omega 3 1000 mg capsules on the market by price. The amount of DHA and EPA found in the capsules is one of the most important factors when comparing the price of individual brands, however this is not the only factor that you should consider. There are also other factors such as the freshness of the oil, and more.
There are many brands of 1000 mg fish oil supplements on the market. Whilst some appear at first glance to represent great value it is usually quite clear after investigating a little deeper that you’re actually getting much better value buying a more expensive brand.
