NOW Ultra Omega-3 supplies concentrated EPA (500 mg) and DHA (250 mg) in fish gelatin softgels to support cardiovascular and cognitive health.

NOW Ultra Omega-3 is a molecularly distilled fish oil concentrate provided in fish-derived gelatin softgels. Each 1,000 mg softgel delivers a targeted 500 mg of EPA and 250 mg of DHA per serving to help maintain healthy omega-3 intake. The formula is processed under strict quality controls and third-party testing to minimize contaminants, and it is presented as an alternative to bovine or porcine gelatin options.

How is this fish oil processed to ensure purity?

The oil is molecularly distilled, a refinement technique that reduces unwanted environmental contaminants such as PCBs, dioxins, and heavy metals. NOW uses in-house ISO/IEC-accredited labs plus third-party checks to confirm potency and safety. While not a claim of cure, the product follows recognized standards for supplement quality.

• Molecular distillation to lower contaminant levels
• Third-party testing and GOED membership alignment
• ISO/IEC-accredited lab testing for potency and stability
• Natural color variation may occur between batches

What are the key dosages and benefits of EPA and DHA in this formula?

Each softgel contains 1,000 mg fish oil with 500 mg EPA and 250 mg DHA, providing a concentrated source of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids commonly used to support heart and brain health as part of a balanced diet. The U.S. FDA notes supportive but not conclusive research linking EPA and DHA consumption with reduced coronary heart disease risk.
