Most people are deficient in omega 3 fats due to low intakes of dietary oily fish. Do you eat oily fish 4x or more a week? That's the level you need to take your omega 3 index from 5% (the average), to 8%. At 8% the research shows that you can get, on average, 5 years longer life expectancy from a reduction in all cause mortality. Omega 3 also aids in joint health, is a potent anti-inflammatory and is thus very helpful in many areas of human health. The issue was that most companies had products that weren’t certified heavy metal free, and were weak in their dosage, so we looked to correct this and provide a staple supplement for many, in a clean and high strength formula.
Slight fishy odour if capsule opened.
How to use
Take 2 capsules a day with food for general health, or 3 capsules per day if you are a high exerciser to meet the research recommended Omega 3 requirement for optimal health and anti-inflammatory benefits. For best results take alongside Awesome Defence, daily.

Most assume that omega 6s are pro-inflammatory and omega 3s are anti-inflammatory, so focus just on Omega 3s. But it’s actually the ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 that’s the problem. It’s not that omega 6 fats are bad per-se, it’s that we are not consuming enough anti-inflammatory omega 3s as a population. This study showed that increased omega 6s alone do not lead to increased inflammatory makers, but it’s shown here that an optimal Omega 6: Omega 3 ratio is 4:1 or lower - whereas most western diets are around 15:1. The solution? Increase your omega 3 intake and just keep an eye on omega 6s not being too high.
This study shows that raising your omega 3 index from 4% to 8%, by consuming up to 2g omega 3 fatty acids, can lower your risk of all cause mortality, and increase your life expectancy by 5 years. A similar dosage has been shown by Miller et al to improve high blood pressure even more effectively than other lifestyle interventions such as increased exercise or reduced sodium or alcohol consumption.
Yes, you can get that from food. But you’ll need to eat upwards of 4 portions of oily fish per week. Supplement with our high dose Awesome Omega daily can help you achieve this intake level.
While the UK dietetic association recommends 450mg of DHA/EPA per day, research around optimal, rather than sufficiency dosing points to a more optimal dose being around 1000mg for general health, and 1-2000mg if you exercise a lot. Two capsules would cover you for general health benefits, and three capsules would be sufficient if you exercise regularly, at high intensity.
Most omega 3 fish oil products advertise their capsules at 1000mg, and while the size of the capsule might have the size/capacity for 1000mg, most tablets are far off 1000mg in their overall EPA and DHA dose. Our capsules are genuine high strength (550mg per 1000mg capsule), are heavy metal free (many fish oils are high in mercury and cadmium), are from a friends of the sea source so they are genuinely sustainable in their source, and we guarantee a no fishy burp experience taking them - a common issue with low quality omega 3 fish oils.
We use a soft gel to encapsulate our omega 3 fish oil so there is no fishy odour when taking it. Our previous Omega 3 product was a capsule, but we have moved to a soft gel based off your customer feedback.
We have a no fishy burp guarantee. Some lower quality fish oil products can give you fishy burps because of the soft gel used, the fish oil being oxidised (due to exposure to heat and light), and poorly purified in its production process. We ensure all 3 are optimal so you don't get any fishy burps.
No. Our previous Awesome Omega was, but we have since moved back to an Omega 3 from fish oil to reduce the cost of the product to £18 as opposed to £24, to increase the EPA and DHA content, and to eradicate any presence fish burps.
