Frequently Asked Questions
What are omega-3 fatty acids?
Omega-3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids that occur naturally in certain foods such as fatty fish, algae, and seeds. In supplements, they are often added in the form of EPA and DHA.

What does “concentrated” mean in the context of this product?
An omega-3 concentrate contains a higher amount of omega-3 fatty acids per capsule than standard fish oil. Therefore, fewer softgels are needed to obtain the same amount.

What is the difference between EPA and DHA?
EPA stands for eicosapentaenoic acid, and DHA stands for docosahexaenoic acid. These are two types of omega-3 fatty acids that are often found together in fish oil. They are added to supplements in varying proportions.

What exactly are fatty acids?
Fatty acids are the building blocks of fats that occur naturally in food. They are divided into saturated, monounsaturated (such as omega-9), and polyunsaturated (such as omega-3 and omega-6) fatty acids. Each type of fatty acid has a unique chemical structure and is found in different foods.

What is the difference between omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fatty acids?
Omega-3, -6, and -9 are three types of unsaturated fatty acids that differ in structure and origin: Omega-3 fatty acids are found primarily in fatty fish, algae, and flaxseed. Well-known examples include EPA and DHA. Omega-6 fatty acids are found, for example, in sunflower oil, corn oil, and nuts. Omega-9 fatty acids are monounsaturated and are abundant in olive oil.

What does rTG mean in fish oil?
rTG stands for “re-synthesized triglycerides,” a form of omega-3 fatty acids in which the fatty acids are linked in the same way they occur naturally in foods. This form is often used in concentrated supplements.
