Omega-3 & other oils
Omega-3
The omega-3 fats EPA and DHA from fish, krill or algae oil. Your body uses them for the heart, brain and eyes. We compare by EPA + DHA, not by oil.
640 products from US online stores, sorted by what 1,000 mg of EPA + DHA costs – not by the price per pack.

What does 1,000 mg mean?
- EPA + DHA per serving in most of the products we checked
- 180–1,600 mgEPA + DHA per serving in most of the products we checked
- official daily amount for EPA + DHA in the US (NIH)
- Noneofficial daily amount for EPA + DHA in the US (NIH)
- EPA + DHA a day: adequate intake for adults (EFSA)
- 250 mgEPA + DHA a day: adequate intake for adults (EFSA)
- 1,000 mg is about one serving: half of the 640 products we checked have up to 750 mg per serving, the other half more.
- 1,000 mg is more than the 250 mg of EPA + DHA a day that’s considered adequate for adults (EFSA (opens in a new tab)).
We compare by 1,000 mg only so products line up – it’s not a recommendation. Not medical advice. More on amounts, with sources
Where products miss quality points
How the 640 products score
- Very good 90+: 166
- Good 75+: 436
- Fair 60+: 35
- Low under 60: 1
- No score, label not readable: 2
1 product contains titanium dioxide – a food authority has banned, restricted or flagged it as a possible health risk. Its score is cut in half, so it’s always in the red range. The product says why.
- have no seal from an independent testing program
- 74%have no seal from an independent testing program10 of 30 testing points for GMP, 15 for the 117 whose label says “third-party tested”
The full 30 testing points need an independent test. Every supplement sold in the US is made under the FDA’s GMP rules – the maker checks its own products, which gives 10 points. A seal from a testing program like NSF, USP or Informed Choice means a lab outside the company checks that what’s inside matches the label. Most brands don’t take part. That doesn’t make a product bad – without a seal, a clean product still gets up to 80.
We find seals on the label and in NSF’s public lists. USP and Informed Choice don’t let us search their lists automatically, so a seal that’s only in their lists can be missing. How the score works

Source: NIH Office of Dietary Supplements (opens in a new tab)250 mg
EPA + DHA a day: adequate intake for adults (EFSA)
Source: EFSA, 2010 (opens in a new tab)5,000 mg
EPA + DHA a day from supplements: no safety concerns for adults (EFSA)
Source: EFSA, 2012 (opens in a new tab)52.5–3,140 mg
EPA + DHA per serving in the 640 products we checked
Per serving, the 640 products we checked have 52.5–3,140 mg. EFSA, a day: 250 mg.
- 247 of 640 have so little per piece that you’d need 4 or more pieces for 1,000 mg EPA + DHA.
On the label: Add up EPA and DHA from the label. A “1,000 mg fish oil” softgel often has only about 300 mg of EPA + DHA.
These are amounts from the sources above, not a recommendation for you. Not medical advice – ask a doctor or pharmacist what’s right for you.

What’s that?
An independent lab (NSF) checks that the label matches what’s inside and tests for 290 substances banned in sport. Source (opens in a new tab)
Guide: Fish oil, krill oil or algae oil: what 1,000 mg of EPA + DHA costs
How we checked: one-time price for each size in the store’s US online shop, before sales tax and shipping, without subscriptions or coupons. Prices change often, so check the store before you buy. More on how we check
The amount we compare by only makes products comparable – it is not a dosage recommendation. Not medical advice.
How we calculate
Cost per dose = price ÷ (servings × amount per serving) × comparison amount. Example: $119.99 for 74 servings with 24 g of protein each is 1,776 g of protein. $119.99 ÷ 1,776 g × 30 g = $2.03 per 30 g of protein.
