Fish oil supplies omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA and DHA. This product is a softgel supplement; the total fish oil weight and the amount of omega-3 are separate measures.
Product details
- Product and pack: Nature's Bounty Fish Oil 1400 mg, 130 Softgels.
- Category: Fish oil dietary supplement.
Choosing this formula
Read EPA, DHA, and total omega-3 per serving, not just the fish oil number on the front. Serving size may be more than one softgel, and a mini format does not automatically have the same concentration as a full-size softgel.
How to use
Use the exact bottle's serving and frequency. Check the ingredient and allergen statements, especially if you have a fish allergy. Review other omega-3 supplements to avoid duplicating your regimen.
Before use
Discuss use with a clinician if you take anticoagulants or have a bleeding disorder. High-dose omega-3 use may increase the risk of atrial fibrillation in some people. A dietary supplement is not interchangeable with prescription omega-3 medicine. Ask a healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or when managing a medical condition.
Does 1,200 mg fish oil mean 1,200 mg EPA and DHA?
No. Fish oil also contains other fats. The Supplement Facts panel gives the actual EPA and DHA contribution and is the useful basis for comparing products.
