Omega 3 Ultimate, Superior Grade Wild Fish Oil, Triple Distilled Sardine, Anchovy & Mackerel Oil, Sustainably Sourced, 100 Day Supply, 500ml

I have tried an awful lot of Omega-3 supplements over the years. This one from Barefoot Nutrition comes in flavoured oil form rather than the more usual capsules. As someone who often struggles with the more common soft gel capsules this format offers significant appeal, as I don't really want to choke while taking my daily Omega-3. The flavouring does a reasonable job of making this more palatable and this particular product seems to have a lighter texture than other oils I have tried, so as well as the off-putting fishiness it also largely avoids that oily mouthfeel, which may put some people off. The key things to look for with regard to the Omega-3 supplements are the levels of EPA and DHA that they contain. Many products seems to represent good value at first glance, but don't actually deliver the level of potential health benefits that you think they might. Ideally, you should be looking for Omega-3 supplements that deliver a daily combined dose of around 1000mg of EPA and DHA .The suggested daily intake of this supplement is 5ml (one teaspoon), which would deliver 740-860mg EPA and 460-550mg DHA, so a combined total of 1200-1410mg, which is just what you should be looking for. But how does the cost of this product does not stack up? The bottle contains 500ml, so taking 5ml per day at the current cost of £19.79 equates to a daily cost of about 20p. I have tried and reviewed other very good products on here that also deliver a combined dose of EPA & DHA of 1000mg or more, but that do so with a daily cost of less than that amount - but I have also come across others that cost quite a bit more per day, so this one probably sits somewhere in the mid-range, although this 500ml size is certainly better value than the 250ml variants I have come across. This is certainly a product that would appeal to me as I would prefer not to have to suffer the traumatic experience of trying to swallow soft gel capsules every day. Although I could get some (but not all) good quality capsules at a lower daily cost than this oil, I would consider this to be a reasonable price and certainly not extortionate. I hope you find these comments helpful.

So why would I eat fish oil. Well, I eat mackerel every day because it helps with a torn cartilage in my knee. I dont want to get fed up with eating mackerel, so I thought I would see if a fish oil would serve as a substitute. I am also on a very strict diet and am trying to reduce my calorie intake, so eating less could help. I chose this because the makers seem to be obsessed with making a good clean product, and it is just oil, which is what I want. I have no idea whether it will be of any help to me, but it tastes absolutely lovely. Obviously it is oily, but light with a very mild lemony perfume taste. I would love to just eat this stuff. It could be brilliant on food. Shame on me for just using it as medicine.

This oil is the best thing I did in my life. I brought because I read in the internet it was good for acne. In 15 days 80% of my acne cleared. Meanwhile, my exams arrived and says I have PCOS. The tast is wonderful p, taste as fresh lemon, as the tast is really my palate I have it on the top of my meat in my dinner or use to dress my bowl salad tighter with lemon juice. I’m so used to add it in my dinner that I use as dressing and flavours enhancing.

Whilst the item is excellent. I do wish the delivery man would leave the gates as he found them - closed.

I’ve only been using this for a few days but know that it can only but be good for you. I rarely eat fish so this supplement will make up for that. It tastes lemony which is naturally derived and contains wild fish oil from sardine, anchovy and mackerel, packed with Omega 3. You only need to take a 5ml spoonful a day, so this 500ml bottle is good value.

I've been taking this for a few weeks now and can report that my joints and my skin are feeling pretty damn good for being 64. Really nice to take as it is very palatable and smells good too!

Odouless & tastes lovely. Light liquid.

Recently started suffering from a mild shoulder tendonitis, front shoulder head was inflamed for over 6 weeks due to overzealous gym sessions. Immediate relief less than 2 days after taking the fish oil, shoulder still a bit uncomfortable however showing huge signs of improvement after a chest session in the gym - over the moon with the results. Initially bought as an Omega 3 supplement and left in the fridge, turns out that eating canned sardines and mackerels few times a week may not be enough when lifting "heavy".
