The benchmark omega-3 supplement. Third-party tested for purity, triglyceride form for superior absorption, and EPA/DHA doses that match clinical evidence.
Nordic Naturals earns top marks through consistent third-party testing, appropriate dosing, superior bioavailability (triglyceride form), and a 30-year track record. The EPA/DHA ratio aligns with cardiovascular research. IFOS certification, Friend of the Sea sustainable sourcing, and full CoA availability push the transparency score near the top of the category.
Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) have robust evidence for cardiovascular health, triglyceride reduction, anti-inflammatory effects, and cognitive support. Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega delivers 1280mg combined EPA/DHA per serving in triglyceride form, which research shows has 70% better absorption than ethyl ester forms. IFOS 5-star rated for purity. Oxidation levels consistently test below industry thresholds.

Not the absolute cheapest option per mg of EPA/DHA. Softgels are larger than some competitors. Some users report fishy aftertaste, though Nordic Naturals scores better than most on this metric. Does not provide the 2-4g EPA/DHA doses used in some therapeutic cardiovascular trials.
