Essential Omega-3 1000 mg 240 capsules

BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg is a food supplement containing the essential fatty acids EPA and DHA from fish oil, which supports heart health, normal brain function and normal vision. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart, while DHA also contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and vision. The product is enriched with vitamin E, which protects cells from oxidative stress. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of at least 250 mg of EPA and DHA.

One capsule of BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg contains 1000 mg of fish oil, including 180 mg of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and 120 mg of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). At the recommended dose of 2–3 capsules daily, you will receive 360–540 mg of EPA and 240–360 mg of DHA, which significantly exceeds the minimum recommended daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA needed to achieve the health benefit.

The recommended dose of BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg is 1 capsule 2 to 3 times daily. It does not matter whether you take them in the morning, at lunchtime or in the evening. It is important to take the capsules with food, as omega-3 fatty acids are fat-soluble and are absorbed significantly better when consumed with a meal. Consistency and daily use are key to long-term health benefits.

The triglyceride form is the natural form in which omega-3 fatty acids occur in foods such as fish. BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg uses this form, which has higher bioavailability and better absorption compared with the standard ethyl ester form (EE). Ethyl ester is a chemically modified form used in cheaper products. The triglyceride form is therefore considered a premium standard in omega-3 supplementation.

No, BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians. The product contains fish oil as its main ingredient and animal-derived gelatine in the capsule shell. Alternative omega-3 sources based on algae oil are available for vegans and do not come from animal sources. The product also contains a declared allergen – fish or fish products – which sensitive individuals should be particularly aware of.

BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg contains a declared allergen – fish or fish products. People with a fish allergy should avoid the product or consult a doctor before taking it. The product does not contain declared allergens such as gluten, lactose or soya. The full capsule composition is: fish oil, gelatine, glycerol, purified water and vitamin E (D-alpha-tocopherol). The product is unflavoured.

A pack of 240 BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg capsules will last 120 days, or 4 months, at a dose of 2 capsules daily. At a dose of 3 capsules daily, it will last approximately 80 days, or about 2.5 months. This is a value-size pack intended for long-term daily supplementation. The product is also available in a smaller pack of 90 capsules, which is suitable for trying the product.

Omega-3 fatty acids are generally considered safe when taken at the correct dose. Some users may experience a mild fishy aftertaste or minor digestive discomfort, especially if they do not take the capsules with food. The vitamin E (5 mg per capsule) in the product also protects the fish oil from oxidation. People taking blood-thinning medication or those with existing health conditions should consult a doctor before use.

Yes, BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg can generally be combined with most food supplements – for example, vitamin D3, magnesium, protein or multivitamins. Omega-3 fatty acids are generally compatible with other supplements. Caution is advised when taking high doses of vitamin E or blood-thinning medication (anticoagulants) at the same time, as their effects may be enhanced. In such cases, we recommend consulting a doctor.

Vitamin E (D-alpha-tocopherol) is added to BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg at 5 mg per capsule and has two important functions. First, it acts as a powerful antioxidant that protects the body's cells from oxidative stress. Second, vitamin E prevents oxidation of the fish oil in the capsule, preserving the freshness and quality of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA throughout the product's shelf life.
