Fish oil’s virtues are many. Clinical studies have shown decreased inflammation, benefits to the heart/cardiovascular system, brain/nervous system, immune system, eyes, kidneys and digestive system (especially for Crohn’s disease). Evergreen Nutrition features many excellent fish oils and we’d like to tell you about a few that have something special to offer.

VECTOMEGA from EuroPharma stands out because the EPA and DHA are in a phospholipid-peptide complex, their natural state, making Vectomega more biologically active (up to fifty times more absorption than triglyceride fish oils). One small tablet has the same benefits as four to six grams of other fish oils. Solgar’s FULL SPECTRUM OMEGA and New Chapter’s WHOLEMEGA are from wild-caught Alaskan salmon and contain the well-known omega-3s EPA and DHA, as well as omega-5, -6, -7 and -9 plus Vitamin D3 and astaxanthin, a potent antioxidant. Renew Life’s NORWEGIAN GOLD fish oils include the fat-busting enzyme lipase (allowing up to three times more absorption) plus these enteric coated fish gels are burp-free. They come in several potencies from the small-sized FIRST OMEGA and DAILY OMEGA up to CRITICAL OMEGA and SUPER CRITICAL OMEGA. In addition they have two CRITICAL blends which are higher in EPA and DHA respectively.

Garden of Life introduced “The Coolest Fish Oil on the Planet” by MINAMI NUTRITION. It is created using dual-process supercritical fluid extraction and supercritical fluid chromatography which yields a very pure fish oil without high heat or harsh solvents.

Evergreen also offers a selection of fish oil products specifically for children including Nordic Naturals’ GUMMIES (Nordic’s yummy gummies are a favorite of the Evergreen staff.) Or, if you prefer to drink your omegas, try one of our flavored liquid fish oils — an easy way to get a high dose of EPA and DHA for children as well as adults.
