Omega 3 Supplements

Omega 3 supplements are available as softgels or as bottled liquids. These products are highly sensitive to damage from heat, oxygen and light. So, whenever you buy omega 3 supplements, make sure that they have been refrigerated and that they are bottled in a dark glass jar. After buying, always store the product in your refrigerator.

I also recommend, you buy omega 3 supplements that contain Vitamin E. Vitamin E is a strong antioxidant that prevents your omega 3 oil from becoming rancid.

The most popular omega 3 supplements are flaxseed oil, which is rich in alpha linolenic acid and omega 3 fish oil, which is a rich source of the more valuable omega 3's: EPA and DHA.

Consumerlab.com tested various omega 3 products. The good news is, no contaminants (like mercury or PCB's) were found in any of the products. However 2 of the products didn't pass the test - one was spoiled and the other didn't contain the labeled amounts.
