Analysis

Fish-oil EPA and DHA support cardiovascular nutrition, while borage oil and omega-9 expand the fatty-acid profile. Vitamin D adds general nutrient support, but the formula is broader and less omega-3-dense than focused fish oils.

Triglyceride form is identified for the marine fats, which helps with form transparency. The borage-derived gamma-linolenic acid is not quantified, and the supplied entries for omega-6 and omega-9 contain confusing form labels that make the oil breakdown less clear.

Adults who specifically want mixed omega oils in one product may accept the three-softgel serving. People prioritizing EPA and DHA, or those using blood-thinning medicines, may prefer a simpler formula with less vitamin E.

Who is it for
  • Adults seeking combined fish and borage oils
  • People who want mixed fatty acids with vitamins D and E
Best for
  • Broad cardiovascular fatty-acid support
  • Triglyceride-form EPA and DHA

Pros

  • Identifies triglyceride form
  • Lists EPA and DHA separately
  • Includes borage-derived fatty acids
  • Provides vitamin D

Cons

  • Marine omega-3 amount is moderate
  • Gamma-linolenic acid is not quantified
  • Three softgels per serving
  • High vitamin E amount

Warnings

  • Fish oil and high vitamin E may increase bleeding tendency with anticoagulant or antiplatelet medicines
  • Count vitamin D and vitamin E from other supplements
  • Fish allergy makes the product unsuitable
  • Supplied data does not confirm pyrrolizidine-alkaloid control for borage oil

Nutrient quality

68 High impact

Triglyceride-form omega-3 supports absorption, but the EPA and DHA amounts remain modest for targeted use. Prominent vitamin E and secondary fats add breadth without strong omega-3 depth.

Ingredient transparency

63 Moderate impact

EPA and DHA have amounts, but GLA and several source details are not quantified clearly. Blank entries, missing daily directions, and absent inactive ingredients weaken transparency.

Customer satisfaction

69 High impact

The supplied aggregate rating is favorable and supported by a useful review volume. Detailed feedback is unavailable, so repeated complaints and fit with the intended use cannot be judged.

Value for money

31 Situational impact

The formula provides weak practical value for its key fatty-acid content. Secondary fats, hidden blends, or limited target depth weaken category competitiveness.

Impact
High effect
A- Goal FitC- Strength of SupportD CoverageC Formula Quality
Vitamin D · 50 mcgFish Oil · 666 mgVitamin E · 134 mg

EPA and DHA give the formula a direct, evidence-based link to lipid and vascular support. Triglyceride-form oil and separate fatty-acid disclosure are strengths, but the active omega-3 amount is low for targeted use.

Vitamin E helps protect the oil, while added omega-6 and omega-9 contribute little distinct value for most diets. Fish oil combined with the high vitamin E amount may increase bruising or bleeding risk for users taking anticoagulants.

Report overview
Omega-9 · 300 mg OverallScore76
A- Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityA- Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyD- Value

A clearly quantified Omega-9 dose from fish and borage oils offers a useful daily amount. Vitamin E helps protect the oils, although the extraction method is not disclosed. The cost per active amount is only fair compared with stronger values in the collection.

A Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityC Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value

The triglyceride form, concentrated EPA share, and EPA-forward ratio make the oil well aligned on ingredient quality. Its EPA dose is moderate rather than high, and no independent purity evidence is supplied. Vitamin E adds basic oxidation protection, but the cost per gram of EPA remains unfavorable.

Omega-3 · 400 mg OverallScore58
B- Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityC Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value

The triglyceride form supports absorption, but the fish species is not identified. EPA and DHA are disclosed separately at a moderately concentrated level. The limited active dose provides weak value for the serving cost.
