Micro Ingredients Extra Strength Omega 3 Fish Oil Supplements 1,000mg Per Serving, 300 Softgels | Lemon Flavored | Burpless | EPA 180mg + DHA 120mg | Deep Sea Fish

2/23/20 UPDATE: Just opened a new bag of fish oil capsules. They are cloudy not clear. It appears to a different gel cap formula or new machine die? Sent an email to MI for clarification.It's not about the Omega-3 fatty acids in this oil.What counts are the EPA and DHA amounts. 2000mg and 1500mg, respectively is almost unheard of for fish oil. True you have to take 3 to reach those levels, but I only take 2 softgels. That breaks down to 1,333mg EPA and 1,000mg DHA. Those are excellent levels for your cardiac and liver health.Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is an omega-3 fatty acid. It's found in the flesh of cold-water fish, including mackerel, herring, tuna, halibut, salmon, cod liver, whale blubber, or seal blubber.EPA is used as a prescription medicine to reduce triglyceride levels. As a supplement, EPA is most commonly used for heart disease, preventing adverse events after a heart attack, depression, and menopause. It is also used for chemotherapy-related side effects, recovery after surgery, memory and thinking skills, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support many of these uses.Effective forHigh levels of fats called triglycerides in the blood (hypertriglyceridemia). Research shows that taking a prescription drug called Vascepa, which contains pure eicosapentaenoic acid, helps lowers triglycerides levels by 33% in people with very high levels. This prescription product also lowers triglyceride levels by about 22% and cholesterol levels by 6% in most people taking cholesterol-lowering drugs called "statins" who continue to have high triglyceride levels. Taking this prescription drug also reduces the risk of major heart-related adverse events by about 25% in people taking statins with persistent high triglyceride levels and other heart-related risk factors.Likely Effective forHigh levels of blood fats called triglycerides (hypertriglyceridemia). Research shows that taking a specific product containing eicosapentaenoic acid as ethyl eicosapentaenoic acid (Vascepa by Amarin) by mouth along with dieting and cholesterol-lowering drugs called "statins" reduces levels of triglycerides in people with very high levels. It might also improve cholesterol levels. This product is FDA-approved in adults with very high triglyceride levels.Possibly Effective forA mental disorder marked by unstable mood and behavior (borderline personality disorder). Taking eicosapentaenoic acid seems to slightly lower aggressiveness and slightly relieve depression in women with this mood disorder.Heart disease (cardiovascular disease). In people with high triglycerides and heart disease or a high risk of heart disease, research shows that taking a prescription drug called Vascepa reduces complications of such as heart attack and stroke.Heart disease (coronary heart disease) . People with coronary artery disease who consume more eicosapentaenoic acid as part of their diet seem to have a slightly reduced risk of death. Early research shows that taking 1800 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid daily reduces the risk of heart-related adverse events such as heart attacks in people with high cholesterol and coronary artery disease.Depression. Research suggests that taking pure eicosapentaenoic acid or fish oil containing at least 60% eicosapentaenoic acid reduces symptoms of depression. It might work best when used along with antidepressant drugs.Symptoms of menopause. Research shows that taking eicosapentaenoic acid reduces how often hot flashes occur. But eicosapentaenoic acid does not seem to reduce the intensity of the hot flashes or improve overall quality of life.Heart attack. After a heart attack, people may undergo a procedure called percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to improve blood flow to the heart. Taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth along with a drug called a "statin" within 24 hours of PCI reduces the risk of heart-related adverse events such as an irregular heart beat (arrhythmia) or death after the procedure compared to taking the "statin" alone. Also, taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth along with "statins" before undergoing PCI for chest pain reduces the risk of having a heart attack after the procedure.Possibly Ineffective forAn eye disease that leads to vision loss in older adults (age-related macular degeneration or AMD). Eating more eicosapentaenoic acid as part of the diet does not seem to prevent AMD.Hay fever. Taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth does not seem to relieve hay fever symptoms such as wheezing, cough, and nasal symptoms.Asthma. Taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth does not seem to reduce asthma symptoms.Cystic fibrosis. Taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth does not seem so to improve symptoms of cystic fibrosis.Diabetes. Taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth does not seem to reduce blood sugar or cholesterol levels in people with type 2 diabetes.High blood pressure. Taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth with another fatty acid, gamma-linolenic acid, does not seem to reduce blood pressure in people with high blood pressure.Infants with birth weight below the 10th percentile due to inadequate nutrition. Taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth does not seem to reduce the risk of an infant having delayed growth while still in the uterus.High blood pressure during pregnancy. Taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth does not seem to reduce high blood pressure in women with high-risk pregnancies.Insufficient Evidence forAlzheimer disease. Early research suggests that increased intake of eicosapentaenoic acid in the diet doesn't help prevent Alzheimer disease.Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Some research shows that low blood levels of eicosapentaenoic acid and other fatty acids are linked with ADHD in children. However, it's not known yet if taking eicosapentaenoic acid supplements can treat or prevent ADHD.Involuntary weight loss in people who are very ill (cachexia or wasting syndrome). Early research shows that taking a nutritional supplement containing eicosapentaenoic acid (ProSure by Abbott Nutrition) by mouth while undergoing chemotherapy to treat lung cancer helps prevent the loss of lean body mass better than a nutritional supplement without eicosapentaenoic acid. However, taking eicosapentaenoic acid along with a special diet doesn't seem to prevent the loss of lean body mass any more than the special diet alone in people with head and neck cancer when started before treatment.Diarrhea caused by cancer drug treatment. Taking a nutritional supplement containing eicosapentaenoic acid doesn't seem to prevent diarrhea caused by cancer drug treatment for lung cancer.Nausea and vomiting caused by cancer drug treatment. Taking a nutritional supplement containing eicosapentaenoic acid doesn't seem to prevent nausea or vomiting caused by cancer drug treatment for lung cancer.Nerve damage in the hands and feet caused by cancer drug treatment. Taking a nutritional supplement containing eicosapentaenoic acid during cancer drug treatment for lung cancer prevents nerve pain by a small amount.Tiredness in people treated with cancer drugs. Taking a nutritional supplement containing eicosapentaenoic acid during cancer drug treatment for lung cancer prevents tiredness by a small amount.Lung cancer. Early research shows that taking a nutritional supplement containing eicosapentaenoic acid (ProSure by Abbott Nutrition) by mouth while undergoing cancer drug treatment for lung cancer doesn't improve response rate or increase survival compared to taking a nutritional supplement without eicosapentaenoic acid.Infection after surgery. Early research shows that giving eicosapentaenoic acid, RNA, and L-arginine as part of "tube feeding" after surgery reduces the potential for infections and improves recovery time compared to standard "tube feeding."Recovery after surgery. Weight loss and malnutrition are common after surgery to the esophagus. Early research shows that giving eicosapentaenoic acid as part of "tube feeds" after surgery to the esophagus doesn't prevent weight loss or loss of lean body mass compared to "tube feeds" without eicosapentaenoic acid.Prostate cancer. It is not known if levels of eicosapentaenoic acid in the blood affect the risk of getting prostate cancer. Some research shows that a higher blood level of eicosapentaenoic acid is linked with a lower risk of getting prostate cancer. But other research shows there's no link. In men with normal levels of prostate specific antigen (PSA), which may be elevated in prostate cancer, early research shows that eicosapentaenoic acid may reduce PSA levels.Scaly, itchy skin (psoriasis). Early research shows that taking eicosapentaenoic acid by mouth or giving eicosapentaenoic acid intravenously (by IV) along with a drug called etretinate improves psoriasis symptoms better than etretinate alone.Schizophrenia. Research to date shows conflicting results about the effectiveness of eicosapentaenoic acid in treating schizophrenia.A type of inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis). Some research shows that a higher intake of eicosapentaenoic acid and other fatty acids in the diet is associated with a reduced risk of having ulcerative colitis. Early research also shows that taking eicosapentaenoic acid for 6 months might reduce markers of bowel inflammation and the risk of worsening ulcerative colitis.Lung diseases.Lupus.Menstrual disorders.

I’ve tried several omega-3 supplements, and this one stands out. The lemon flavor really helps — no fishy burps or weird aftertaste, which is a big win for me! I love that it’s triple strength with a high EPA and DHA content, and the fact that it’s wild-caught, deep sea, and gluten-free gives me peace of mind. I feel like I have more mental clarity and energy since taking it. Great value for the quality — I’ll definitely be repurchasing!

Love these fish oil caps! No funny taste or burps, easy to swallow and a great price.I also love packaging! The Ziploc bag is easy to get into and great for storage. The supplement itself is a small clear gel capsule that's easy to swallow and have been taking these Omega -3 softgels for almost a month now and definitely noticing the quality and adsorption!

I like these pills, as there is essentially no after-taste compared to the traditional cod-liver oil; however, I dislike the fact that the serving size is three pills, as they're so difficult for me to swallow that I have to "hype myself up" to do.

I'm happy to get a substantial amount of high quality omega-3 fish oil. The list of benefits is long for fish oil. I've experienced absolutely no fish taste of burps. I very much approve that wild caught Norwegian fish is used to make this supplement. Very excellent price.

I have been taking Micro ingredients fish oil for about 2 weeks now, and so far I like it! It’s easy to swallow, no burping afterwards and it’s not fishy at all! In fact it has a nice light lemon taste but goes away quickly. I find that my skin is feeling softer and not as dry. I’m excited to see what the long term benefits will be!

After research I decided to buy this for my LDL cholesterol. The pill is big but doesn’t give me a fishy taste at all. Already seeing CB improvement in my bloodwork. High quality and I was excited to find a fish oil with high EPA. Highly recommend and great quality.

Finally found a brand of fish oil that doesn’t hurt my stomach and give the dreaded fish oil burps! Extremely happy with brand of fish oil. I’ve been finding just 2 pills a day work perfectly even though they suggest 3 pills. The pill is on the larger side so anyone who has issues with larger pills its something to keep in mind. These will definitely be my new Brand of fish oil oils. Thank you!
