A pharmaceutical-grade fish oil from clean sources, popular among users, but lacks specific EPA/DHA content details, which is a common transparency issue in the market.
RxOmega-3 by Natural Factors is a fish oil supplement sourced from mackerel, sardine, and anchovy, which are smaller fish less prone to heavy metal accumulation. The 'pharmaceutical grade' designation indicates a commitment to purity and quality. While the total fish oil concentrate is provided, the specific amounts of EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) – the most active Omega-3 components – are not detailed on the label. This lack of transparency is a common issue in the fish oil market and makes direct potency comparisons difficult for consumers. The product has a very high number of reviews, suggesting widespread consumer acceptance and satisfaction.
- Sourced from small, wild-caught fish (mackerel, sardine, anchovy) which typically contain fewer contaminants.
- Labeled as 'pharmaceutical grade', indicating higher purity standards.
- Very high review count suggests strong consumer satisfaction and trust.
- Moderate price per serving for a concentrated fish oil product.
- Does not explicitly list the amounts of EPA and DHA per serving, making it difficult to assess true Omega-3 potency.
- The form (triglyceride vs. ethyl ester) is not specified, which can impact absorption efficiency.
- Individuals on blood-thinning medications should consult a healthcare professional before use due to Omega-3's potential to affect blood clotting.

Categories
Fish Oil 75.0
As a fish oil product, it offers a good source from reputable fish types and is pharmaceutical grade, signifying a higher standard of purity. However, the lack of explicit EPA/DHA numbers prevents it from being a top-tier choice for potency assessment.
Goals
General Health 75.0
Omega-3s are foundational for overall wellness, supporting various bodily functions. The product's pharmaceutical-grade fish oil is generally beneficial, though the exact potency of key fatty acids is not specified.
Heart Health 75.0
Fish oil is widely recognized for supporting cardiovascular health. The concentrate form provides essential fatty acids, but a higher, explicit EPA/DHA content would further strengthen its benefit for heart health.
Brain Health 70.0
DHA is particularly crucial for brain function. While this product provides fish oil, the absence of specific DHA amounts means its effectiveness for targeted brain support cannot be fully determined.
