Confirm the fitness of the product

1. People who are prone to flatulence fear the smell of fish oil can choose non-fishy fish oil products (but fish oil itself has a certain fishy smell, safe legal spices are usually added to the formula without fishy smell) enteric capsules. They can also take fish oil products before meals to reduce the smell of fish oil.

2. For people with poor swallowing ability, choose small capsules (relatively low content of ingredients, many Japanese formulas prefer small capsules) liquid products (but liquid products have to consider the problem of difficult preservation).

3. Some members of the public have preferred pill formats, such as powder packets lozenges/hard capsules/soft capsules.

Judge the quality of fish oil

Fish oil quality is good bad, we divide content, pollutant, stability three aspects to discuss.

Content: Omega-3 is the main active ingredient of fish oil, but unfortunately, the amount of Omega-3 in commercially available fish oil health food is always as indicated on the ingredient list. Therefore, a reliable certified company to check the Omega-3 content of fish oil products can ensure that the fish oil can choose its health effect. The public can pay attention to whether the outer box of the product has the relevant certification stamp the original factory inspection report (COA) of the product accessories, the manufacturer's independent inspection report, etc., to evaluate the reliability of the Omega-3 content labeling of the product. As for the issue of absorbance of "TG" "EE" type fish oil, if taken in a single dose, the absorbance of TG type fish oil is indeed high. However, if taken continuously for more than a month, the EPA DHA in human blood are almost the same regardless of TG type EE type.
