Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Many experts believe that a high quality fish oil is probably the most important supplement we can take. This is in part, due to the fact that the average American diet is severely lacking in omega 3 fatty acids, but is very high in omega 6. According to the literature I have read, the ideal ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 should be 1:1. However, the average American diet is estimated to provide a ratio of 33:1!
Another problem with consuming enough omega 3 is the fact that our oceans have been polluted, so nutritional experts caution eating too much fish. Some have gone as far as to not eat fish at all (though I think that is extreme).
Because of the pollution in our oceans, it is important that when choosing a fish oil supplement that it be molecuarly distilled. I personally avoid ones that simply claim to only be purified of mercury, because mercury isn't the only problem. While products that say this might very well be purified to remove other impurities, the fact is, I like to see things in black-and-white. Otherwise, if impurities other than mercury were to be found in the fish oil product, the company couldn't be held accountable because they never claimed otherwise. Fortunately, not only is Ultimate Omega molecularly distilled, but it also far exceeds the International Fish Oil Standards (I.F.O.S.) expectations in purity in every area tested. So Ultimate Omega can be taken with full confidence, that it is simply the the purest fish oil available surpassing some of the strictest standards in the world for fish oil.
Another thing to take into consideration when choosing a fish oil product is that the product provides an effective dose to get desired results. According to many experts I have read, if someone has no health problems, then 1000 mg of EPA & DHA (combined) is usually sufficient for preventative measures.
It can be difficult to find a fish oil product that provides 1000 mg of EPA & DHA in a single serving (usually two softgels). Nordic Naturals' Ultimate Omega provides 1100 mg of EPA & DHA in two softgels (each softgel containing 1000 mg of fish oil). Most standard fish oil products provide only 600 mg of EPA & DHA per 2000 mg of oil. Which means that one would have to consume approximately 4 g (4000 mg) of fat to receive a dose of EPA & DHA comparable to what Nordic Naturals' product offers with just 2g (2000 mg) of fat.
With all that said, some might still be wondering why they should pay the premium price for Ultimate Omega. Because, the truth is, there are other fish oil products out there that can provide at least 1000 mg of EPA & DHA in just two softgels, but at a much lower price. The difference lies in one more place: most fish oil products are in an ethyl ester form, while Ultimate Omega is in a triglycerides form. There have been some debate among experts between which is the superior form. Many proponents of ethyl ester forms felt that the triglycerides form was all hype. However, in 2010, scientific findings have shown that the triglycerides form actually absorbs anywhere from 50-70% better than the ethyl ester form.
- Ultimate Omega can be taken with FULL confidence that it is the purest fish oil on the market, far exceeding the standards of the I.F.O.S.
- It provides a convenient way to receive effective dosages of EPA & DHA in a single serving.
- The omega 3 is provided in a form that has higher absorption than 99% of all other fish oil products.
- Nordic Naturals is one of the most trusted companies in the world for fish oil products, and Ultimate Omega is a good testament to why that is.
