Product analysis

54 out of 100

Kyolic Omega-3 supplies EPA and DHA, fish-oil fats that may support blood-fat levels and blood pressure. Their forms are not clearly stated on the label, which makes quality comparisons harder.

AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works

Nutrient Quality21

EPA and DHA forms are unspecified on the label, limiting comparison of how the oils may be absorbed. Garlic quality is also uncertain, so its inclusion does not establish a better oil supplement.

Ingredient Transparency58

EPA, DHA and garlic amounts are listed, making the main contents easier to compare. Most forms are unspecified, and the vitamin E-related entry lacks an amount and complete composition details.

Value For Money64

The EPA content offers good value, while DHA offers reasonable value at the full serving cost. The garlic contribution to value remains uncertain.

Customer Satisfaction87

Customer ratings are very favorable and come from a substantial number of people. They provide a broad picture of satisfaction without proving health benefits or safety.

Product Focus68

EPA and DHA provide the clearest link to blood-fat and selected blood-pressure benefits. Garlic powder does not match the specific aged extract associated with a limited benefit, so the combination has no established extra advantage.
