EPA and DHA are the two most active omega-3 forms, found in fish oil, and unlike plant-based omega-3 (ALA), they don’t need to be converted by the body — making them directly bioavailable. EPA and DHA contribute to normal heart function at 250mg/day or more combined; this formula’s 800mg EPA + 400mg DHA per dose comfortably exceeds that. They also contribute to the maintenance of normal blood pressure (from 3g EPA+DHA/day) and normal blood triglyceride levels (from 2g EPA+DHA/day).

DHA makes up roughly 15–20% of the brain’s total fatty acids and contributes to normal brain function at 250mg/day or more — this formula’s 400mg DHA per dose is generous. DHA is also a major retinal component and contributes to the maintenance of normal vision at the same threshold. Omega-3s, particularly EPA, are involved in eicosanoid metabolism and are often included in supplementation routines to support joint comfort alongside a balanced diet and regular activity.

Golden Omega oil is purified by molecular distillation, an advanced low-temperature, vacuum process that separates fatty acids from contaminants without heat-degrading the omega-3s — removing heavy metals, dioxins, PCBs and pesticides. The process also concentrates EPA and DHA, giving Golden Omega a 70% total omega-3 content (1,400mg per 2,000mg of oil), meaning more active omega-3 per capsule and fewer capsules needed. The oil is IFOS 5-star certified — the highest distinction of the International Fish Oil Standards programme — sourced from sustainably caught wild fish off the Chilean coast.

Take 2 softgels a day with a fat-containing meal to optimise absorption, either together or split across two meals. Refrigerate after opening to preserve freshness and prevent oxidation — the mixed tocopherols (natural vitamin E) in the formula act as antioxidants, and cold storage extends their effectiveness.

Contains fish and fish gelatine: not recommended for people with fish allergies. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. This food supplement is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Keep out of children’s reach.

How concentrated is this Omega-3?

Each daily dose (2 softgels) provides 2,000mg of Golden Omega anchovy oil, containing 1,400mg total omega-3 — 800mg EPA and 400mg DHA. At 70% omega-3 concentration, this ranks among the most concentrated formulations on the market.

Is the oil purified?

Yes — molecularly distilled to remove heavy metals, dioxins, PCBs and pesticides, and IFOS 5-star certified for purity, concentration and freshness.

How long does a 120-softgel bottle last?

At 2 softgels a day, about 2 months (60 days). Refrigerate after opening.
