Reality Check by Nutriessential

Among users of omega-3 supplements, the common complaint is highly unpleasant fish burps. It can happen when you take high-quality fish oil supplements. The burps don’t always mean that the oil is rancid. But, when you can smell something unpleasant when you open the bottle, you must investigate the expiry date, storage instructions, and talk to the manufacturer. 

When comparing fish oil supplements, read the label about actual EPA and DHA contents instead of relying on the total fish oil count alone. 

Evidence Check by Nutriessential

NIH data says that adequate amount of ALA omega-3 intake for adults is 1.1 g for females and 1.6 g for males. ALA is present in walnuts and some plant oils while EPA and DHA are high in oysters and fatty fish. The dietary guidelines emphasize that whole food sources are ideal for getting omega-3s. Eating 8 ounces of a variety of seafood per week is recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. 

Healthy individuals who regularly consume fatty fish like salmon, tuna, or sardines twice a week may get EPA and DHA through their diet. The omega-3 supplements can be discussed with your healthcare provider for individuals who do not eat seafood or follow a restrictive diet. 

1. How is Nordic Naturals ProOmega 2000 different from standard fish oils?

2. Does it require refrigeration?

The manufacturer Nordic Naturals doesn’t mention that the product requires refrigeration. Ideally, you can keep the bottle in a cool and dry place away from sunlight, heat, and moisture. Follow the instructions on the product label.
