Don't eat fatty fish that often? Then fish oil is a practical way to get EPA and DHA. These fish oil softgels come from LUTO Supplements. Each capsule contains 515 mg of fish oil, of which 165 mg is EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and 125 mg is DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Two omega-3 fatty acids that your body does not produce itself and that are mainly found in fatty fish.
EPA and DHA are so-called long-chain fatty acids. That sounds technical, but it boils down to this: they are fatty acids with a longer molecular structure than what you get from plant-based sources. Eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid (EPA/DHA) contribute to the normal function of the heart; this beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA (1 softgel). DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and the maintenance of normal vision; this beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of DHA (2 softgels).
What many people do not know: omega-3 fatty acids are sensitive to oxidation. As soon as fish oil comes into contact with light or heat, the fatty acids can break down. That is why LUTO Supplements has added vitamin E to these softgels, as an antioxidant for the oil in the capsule. Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative stress. There is 5 mg of vitamin E per softgel, which is 42% of the reference intake.
Per capsule you get 290 mg of EPA and DHA together. That is good to know, because many fish oil products mainly list the total weight of fish oil on the label. But it is, of course, about the omega-3 fatty acids. With two softgels per day you get 580 mg of EPA and DHA. Preferably take your softgels during a meal that contains some fat, as indicated in the recommended use. A slice of bread with cheese or a handful of nuts with it is already enough.
This is a Dutch product from LUTO Supplements, gluten-free and without artificial colors or flavors. The fish oil is purified and contains a standard concentration of omega 3. Still, it is fair to say that 290 mg of EPA plus DHA per softgel is on the modest side compared to some concentrated formulas on the market. For a basic supplement it is fine. If you want higher dosages, then you simply take two capsules per day. The bottle contains 100 softgels, so at a dosage of two per day you will get more than a month and a half out of one bottle.
Fish oil remains one of the most practical ways to supplement your omega-3 intake. Especially if fish is not standard on your plate. With these softgels from LUTO Supplements you have an accessible, Dutch product with a clear composition. No fuss, just fish oil with EPA, DHA and a little vitamin E.
Each softgel contains 290 mg of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA). That is the concentration that matters, not the total weight of the fish oil. With two softgels per day, you get 580 mg of EPA + DHA.
Omega-3 fatty acids are sensitive to degradation by light and heat. Each softgel contains 5 mg of vitamin E (42% RI), which also acts as an antioxidant for the oil in the capsule. Vitamin E helps protect cells against oxidative stress.
Each softgel contains both omega-3 fatty acids: 165 mg EPA and 125 mg DHA.
The formula contains no gluten, artificial colorants, or flavorings. The ingredient list is short: fish oil, a gelatin capsule shell, and a little vitamin E.

Fish oil provides the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. Your body does not produce them itself. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart (with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA). DHA also contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and normal vision (with a daily intake of 250 mg of DHA, i.e. 2 softgels). You get them mainly through fatty fish, and if you eat little of that, a fish oil supplement is a practical addition.
One softgel provides 290 mg of EPA + DHA combined (165 mg EPA and 125 mg DHA). Take two softgels to get 580 mg of EPA + DHA, including 250 mg of DHA. The permitted heart claim applies from 250 mg of EPA + DHA per day, while the claims for brain function and vision apply from 250 mg of DHA per day.
During a meal that contains some fat, as stated in the recommended use. A slice of bread with cheese or a handful of nuts on the side is already enough. It doesn't matter much whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
That depends on what you're looking for. For a basic supplement, 290 mg per softgel is fine, especially if you also eat fish occasionally. With two softgels per day, you reach 580 mg, which is well above the common minimum of 250 mg. If you're looking for very high dosages for a specific purpose, more concentrated formulas are available. But for daily use as a supplement to your diet, this dosage is perfectly suitable.
Both are omega-3 fatty acids from fish. EPA stands for eicosapentaenoic acid, DHA for docosahexaenoic acid. This product contains 165 mg of EPA and 125 mg of DHA per softgel.
Both provide EPA and DHA, but the carrier differs. In fish oil, the omega-3 fatty acids are bound to triglycerides. In krill oil, they are partially bound to phospholipids. Fish oil is the most commonly used form. Krill oil is more expensive and naturally contains astaxanthin. For most people looking to supplement their omega-3 intake, standard fish oil is a practical choice.
