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 derived from fish oil, designed to support heart health, normal brain function, and healthy vision. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart, whilst DHA additionally helps maintain normal brain function and vision. The product is enriched with vitamin E, which helps protect cells from oxidative stress. The beneficial effect is achieved with a daily intake of at least 250 mg of EPA and DHA.

Each capsule of BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg contains 1,000 mg of fish oil, providing 180 mg of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and 120 mg of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). At the recommended dosage of 2–3 capsules per day, you will consume 360–540 mg of EPA and 240–360 mg of DHA — significantly exceeding the minimum recommended daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA required to achieve the associated health benefits.

BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg is recommended to be taken as 1 capsule 2 to 3 times daily. It is not critical whether you take them in the morning, at lunchtime, or in the evening. What is important is to take the capsules with a meal, as omega-3 fatty acids are fat-soluble and are absorbed significantly more effectively when consumed alongside food. Consistency and daily use are key to achieving long-term health benefits.

The triglyceride form is the natural form in which omega-3 fatty acids occur directly in foods, such as fish. BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg uses precisely this form, which offers greater bioavailability and superior absorption compared to the common ethyl ester (EE) form. Ethyl ester is a chemically modified form typically used in lower-cost products. The triglyceride form is therefore widely regarded as the premium standard in omega-3 fatty acid supplementation.

No, BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians. The product contains fish oil as its primary ingredient, and the capsule shell is made from animal-derived gelatine. For vegans, alternative omega-3 sources based on marine algae (algae oil) are available, which are not derived from animal sources. The product also contains a declared allergen — fish and fish products — which individuals with sensitivities should pay particular attention to.

BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg contains a declared allergen — fish and fish products. Individuals with a fish allergy should avoid this product or consult a healthcare professional before use. The product does not contain declared allergens such as gluten, lactose, or soya. The complete capsule ingredients are: fish oil, gelatine, glycerol, purified water, and vitamin E (D-alpha-tocopherol). The product is unflavoured.

A 240-capsule pack of BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg will last 120 days — that is, 4 months — at a dosage of 2 capsules per day. At a dosage of 3 capsules per day, it will last approximately 80 days, or around 2.5 months. This is a value-for-money bulk pack designed for long-term, daily supplementation. The product is also available in a smaller 90-capsule pack, which is ideal for those wishing to try it before committing to a larger supply.

Omega-3 fatty acids are generally considered safe when taken at the recommended dosage. Some users may experience a mild fishy aftertaste or slight digestive discomfort, particularly if the capsules are not taken with food. The vitamin E (5 mg per capsule) included in the product also helps protect the fish oil from oxidation. Individuals taking blood-thinning medications or those with pre-existing health conditions should consult a healthcare professional before use.

Yes, BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg can generally be combined with the majority of dietary supplements — for example, vitamin D3, magnesium, protein supplements, or multivitamins. Omega-3 fatty acids are typically well compatible with other supplements. Caution is advisable when concurrently taking high doses of vitamin E or blood-thinning medications (anticoagulants), as a synergistic effect may occur. In such cases, we recommend consulting a healthcare professional.

Vitamin E (D-alpha-tocopherol) is added to BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 1000 mg at a level of 5 mg per capsule and serves two important functions. Firstly, it acts as a potent antioxidant, helping to protect the body's cells from oxidative stress. Secondly, vitamin E prevents the oxidation of the fish oil within the capsule, thereby preserving the freshness and quality of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA throughout the product's entire shelf life.
