Meg-3 Omega-3 Fish Oil
Our Highest Potency Fish Oils
Q: I hear so much about Omega 3 fatty acids. What are they – and how will they help me?
A: Omega 3's are a group of polyunsaturated essential fatty acids (EFAs) found in fish and certain plant oils. EFAs are vital to overall health. The body uses fatty acids to build and maintain healthy cells. Health professionals have come to realize the importance of Omega-3 fatty acids to overall health. The main nutrients of Omega-3 Fish Oil supplements are the functionally essential Omega-3s EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), which have been shown to promote heart health, joint function and normal development.
Q: Does my body get Omega 3's naturally?
A: The body cannot effectively make EPA and DHA on its own and most people do not get enough Omega-3 in their regular diets.
Q: What is “MEG 3”?
A: MEG-3™ is a branded proprietary formulation of Omega-3 Fish Oil. Supplements containing MEG-3™, like our Vitamin Shoppe Brand Fish Oils, ensure a natural source of Omega-3 that is nutritious, pure and safe. Impurities from fish oil (contaminants such as PCBs and mercury) are removed before the fish oil is concentrated.
Q: How much Omega 3 do I need?
A: In general, 500 to 1000mg Omega-3 EPA/DHA per day are recommended. MEG-3™ EPA-DHA Omega-3 Fish Oil is available from The Vitamin Shoppe in softgel form. Our Mega MEG-3 Fish Oil is our highest potency fish oil, containing 600 mg EPA and 240 mg DHA per daily serving.
