Carlson Labs Fish Oil: Award-Winning Omega-3 Supplements (2024)

Fish oils contain a significant amount of omega 3s, which are known to promote heart, brain, vision, joint, immune, mood, and overall health. The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends we eat at least two 3.5-ounce servings of fatty fish weekly. If we don't consume and adequate amount of fish on a regular basis, an omega-3 fish oil supplement may be a great option.

The typical American diet is high in oemga-6 from poultry, eggs, nuts, vegetable oils, and seed oils, and low in omega-3s from foods like fish and calamari. As a result, the average American consumes an inadequate amount of EPA and DHA. Health professionals recommend we receive a better balance of omega-6s to omega-3s for optimal health. While our body can convert ALA to EPA and DHA, conversion efficiency is very low. Those who eat fish or take fish oil bypass the need for extra conversion and experience immediate benefits.

There have been more than 40,000 published studies on the health benefits of omega-3s. Omega-3s are shown to promote heart, brain, vision, joint, and immune health. And when taken during pregnancy and breastfeeding, omega-3s, specifically DHA, support healthy brain and vision development, and nervous system function.

Once we begin incorporating more fish and/or fish oil supplements into our diet, our body’s omega-3 levels will gradually build up. However, it can take anywhere from 1 to 6 months before we start noticing the desired fish oil benefits such as a healthier mood.

Whether you’re looking for liquid, single-serving packets, cod liver oil gem options, formulas for babies or teens, salmon oil, or DHA or EPA specifically, we have what you need (and more), along with a variety of dosing and mg options to choose from.
