Fish Oil (Omega-3 EPA/DHA) - Pharmaceutical-Grade Raw Material

Fish oil is the primary commercial source of long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, specifically EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). These two fatty acids have been studied extensively for their role in cardiovascular function, brain and eye development, and the body's inflammatory response. Our fish oil is sourced from wild-caught marine fish (typically anchovy and sardine, the industry-preferred sources for low contamination), then molecularly distilled to remove heavy metals, PCBs, and dioxins, and deodorized to minimize fishy aftertaste. Available in standard 18/12 (~30% omega-3) and high-concentrate grades up to 80%+ EPA+DHA.
