Analysis

The serving lists 400 mg EPA, 200 mg DHA, 199 mg GLA, 542 mg alpha-linolenic acid, 494 mg linoleic acid, and 327 mg oleic acid. Those amounts provide unusually broad coverage without hiding the individual actives inside a single proprietary total.

EPA leads DHA at a useful maintenance ratio, while the GLA amount is more substantial than in many combination products. The three-softgel serving and flavored presentation may be less convenient for users who want a simple one-capsule routine.

The supplied label does not identify the source oils, fish-oil molecular form, extraction methods, or antioxidant stabilizer. Independent purity and oxidation testing are also not stated, which matters for a formula containing several oxidation-prone fats.

Who is it for
  • Adults wanting broad omega 3-6-9 coverage
  • People seeking both EPA and a meaningful GLA amount
  • Users comfortable with a multi-softgel serving
Best for
  • Broad-spectrum fatty-acid intake
  • EPA-forward maintenance support
  • Combined marine and plant-fat coverage

Pros

  • Discloses substantial individual fatty-acid amounts
  • Provides 400 mg EPA and 200 mg DHA
  • Includes a meaningful 199 mg GLA serving

Cons

  • Does not identify source oils or molecular forms
  • No stated antioxidant or purity testing
  • Requires three softgels per serving

Warnings

  • The disclosed EPA and DHA indicate a marine source, so people with fish allergy should confirm suitability
  • EPA and DHA may add to bleeding risk with anticoagulant or antiplatelet medicines
  • Confirm the botanical source of GLA if liver health is a concern

Nutrient quality

74 High impact

Several marine and plant fatty acids reach useful amounts. Missing source and form details limit confidence in absorption, purity, and stability.

Ingredient transparency

74 High impact

Important active-label details are incomplete or ambiguous. Complete use directions and inactive-ingredient details are not available.

Customer satisfaction

57 Moderate impact

The aggregate satisfaction measure is favorable, with response volume determining how much confidence it deserves. Comment-level evidence is absent, so recurring complaints and purpose fit cannot be verified.

Value for money

56 Moderate impact

Broad active coverage partly supports the serving cost. Missing quality details and a three-softgel serving weaken competitiveness.

Gamma Linolenic Acid · 199 mg OverallScore51
F Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityA- Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyC Value

The clearly stated GLA amount provides a useful mid-range dose within a broader omega fatty acid blend. The botanical source and extraction method are not disclosed, leaving important questions about the oil’s concentration and protection from oxidation. Cost efficiency is moderate for the active amount delivered.

Oleic Acid · 327 mg OverallScore51
F Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityA- Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyB+ Value

The oleic acid amount is clearly disclosed and fits a useful middle range. Source-oil and oxidation-protection details are absent, which limits confidence in oil quality and freshness. Cost efficiency for the disclosed amount is favorable.

EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) · 400 mg OverallScore44
D- Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityC Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value

The molecular form is unspecified; ePA density is modest, and no protective antioxidant is listed. The serving provides a standard EPA amount with a clearly EPA-centric ratio. No purification or third-party verification is shown, while normalized cost is weak.

RxOmega-3

Natural Factors WS WomenSense
<p>Fish oil, evening primrose oil, and flaxseed oil retain broad omega coverage with clearly stated EPA, DHA, GLA, and ALA amounts. EPA and DHA are substantial, although molecular form and oxidation protection are not disclosed.</p>
88 Performance

Super EPA Pro

Thorne
<p>A very high EPA amount with supporting DHA provides far greater focused marine omega-3 depth than the original. The ethyl-ester form is best taken with dietary fat, while GLA and plant-fatty-acid breadth are absent.</p>
84 Performance

Omega 3-6-9

Source Naturals
<p>Moderate EPA, DHA, GLA, linoleic acid, oleic acid, and ALA preserve broad fatty-acid coverage while mixed tocopherols add oxidation support. The serving cost is lower, though source oils and molecular forms are still missing.</p>
84 Budget

Organic Hemp Oil

Manitoba Harvest
<p>The lower-cost food oil supplies large amounts of ALA, linoleic acid, and GLA from hemp. It does not provide EPA or DHA, so it is a plant-fatty-acid alternative rather than a complete replacement for the original marine-and-plant blend.</p>
76 Budget

K Bio Krill 500 mg

Bio Nutrition
<p>The lower serving cost provides phospholipid-rich krill oil with astaxanthin in a compact formula. EPA and DHA are modest and GLA is absent, so it is narrower than the original despite the savings.</p>
79 Budget

Cod Liver Oil Liquid

Kirkman
<p>The economical liquid supplies balanced EPA and DHA with vitamins A, D, and E. It omits GLA and other plant fats, while preformed vitamin A needs care during pregnancy or when combined with other retinol sources.</p>
86 Value

Omega Plus

Thorne
<p>Useful EPA and DHA are paired with borage-derived GLA at a lower serving cost, preserving the original’s marine-and-plant concept. The GLA amount is modest and several processing, antioxidant, and purity details remain missing.</p>
82 Value

Hemp Oil

Manitoba Harvest
<p>A low serving cost provides large amounts of ALA, linoleic acid, and GLA from hemp oil. It offers strong plant-fat value but cannot replace the original’s EPA and DHA contribution.</p>
73 Value

PS-IQ Memory

Natural Factors PS Factor
<p>The lower-cost blend combines modest DHA and GLA with phosphatidylserine for a more specialized cognitive focus. EPA, DHA, GLA, and phosphatidylserine amounts are all small, so its value depends on wanting that narrower combination.</p>
