Analysis

The softgels use cod liver oil and provide a moderate total omega-3 amount with a small vitamin A contribution. The long supply suits regular users who accept multiple softgels per serving.

EPA and DHA are not separated, and molecular form is not stated. Antioxidant protection and purity verification are also missing from the supplied data.

The product fits adults seeking general cod liver oil rather than a precise EPA or DHA formula. Total vitamin A intake still matters when it is combined with other supplements.

Who is it for
  • Adults seeking general cod liver oil
  • People wanting a longer softgel supply
Best for
  • General omega intake
  • Cod liver oil routines

Pros

  • Cod source is identified
  • Moderate total omega-3 amount
  • Long package supply

Cons

  • EPA and DHA are not separated
  • Molecular form is not listed
  • No antioxidant or purity verification is disclosed

Warnings

  • Count vitamin A from other supplements, especially during pregnancy or when using retinoid medicines
  • Cod oil is unsuitable for people with fish allergy

Nutrient quality

81 Highest impact

The named cod liver oil source supports identity and provides a moderate fatty-acid amount. Missing molecular form and separate EPA and DHA amounts limit absorption and potency confidence.

.

Ingredient transparency

62 Moderate impact

Total omega-3 and vitamin A amounts are stated without a proprietary blend. EPA, DHA, molecular form, other ingredients, and complete directions remain missing.

.

Customer satisfaction

73 High impact

The supplied satisfaction average is strong and has very large supporting volume. No specific experience details are provided to assess repeated complaints or alignment with the intended use.

.

Value for money

68 High impact

The moderate omega-3 amount and named cod source provide some practical value. Missing active-fatty-acid and purity details make category value only moderate.

Omega-3 · 750 mg

Cod liver oil supplies omega-3 fats that may support the skin barrier and inflammatory balance. The small vitamin A amount adds little direct contribution to skin renewal.

Only total omega-3 is disclosed, so EPA and DHA potency cannot be established. Source quality is suggested by the named oil, but molecular form, antioxidant protection, and independent purity testing are not provided.

Only total omega-3 is disclosed, so the amounts of EPA and DHA cannot be assessed. The supplied data also omits molecular form, source detail, antioxidant protection, and independent purity testing. Missing active-fatty-acid amounts prevent a reliable comparison of potency and value.
