BodyWorld
Essential Omega-3 180 capsules

BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 supplements the essential fatty acids EPA and DHA, which the body cannot produce on its own. EPA and DHA contribute to normal heart function, while DHA also contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and normal vision. One serving (2 capsules) contains 180 mg of EPA and 120 mg of DHA from pure fish oil in a natural triglyceride form. The supplement is enriched with vitamin E, which protects cells from oxidative stress. It is suitable for athletes and members of the general population who want to meet their daily omega-3 fatty acid intake.

The recommended dosage is 2 capsules 2 to 3 times a day, or 4 to 6 capsules daily. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA combined, which can be achieved with fewer capsules. It is recommended to take the capsules with food, as dietary fats support the absorption of fish oil. The pack contains 180 capsules, enough for 30 days at the maximum dosage of 6 capsules per day or up to 45 days at the minimum dosage of 4 capsules per day.

The exact time is not crucial; it is more important to divide the daily dose into 2 to 3 servings throughout the day, for example with breakfast, lunch and dinner. Taking it with a meal containing fats improves the absorption of fish oil, which in this product is also in a natural triglyceride form with greater bioavailability than the standard ethyl ester form. Taking it regularly and dividing the dose are more important for achieving the beneficial effect than the exact time of day.

Yes, the product contains fish or fish products, as its main ingredient is pure fish oil. This information is stated in the ingredients list and allergen table. The capsule is made from gelatine, glycerol and purified water, so it has an animal-derived shell. People with a fish or seafood allergy should not take this supplement. If you are unsure, we recommend consulting a doctor before use.

No, this product is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians. The EPA and DHA come from pure fish oil, and the capsule is made from gelatine, which is of animal origin. People who exclude animal products from their diet should look for a plant-based alternative, such as omega-3 from algae oil. BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 is intended primarily for the general population and athletes who do not have dietary restrictions of this kind.

The triglyceride form used for the fish oil in BodyWorld Essential Omega-3 is the natural form found in fish and is absorbed by the body more efficiently than the standard ethyl ester form, which is produced by chemical processing during oil concentration. Greater absorption means that a larger proportion of the active ingredients from the same amount of EPA and DHA in a capsule reaches the body. The ethyl ester form is cheaper to produce, but its bioavailability is lower, which is a common difference between cheaper and higher-quality omega-3 supplements on the market.

The main difference lies in the form of the fatty acids and the added benefit of vitamin E. While many cheaper supplements use the less readily absorbed ethyl ester form, this product contains EPA and DHA in the natural triglyceride form, which is better absorbed. In addition, each serving contains 5 mg of vitamin E, which protects cells from oxidative stress while also stabilising the fish oil itself. The pack of 180 capsules also lasts longer than the smaller packs commonly offered by competing products.

Yes, omega-3 fatty acids are commonly combined with protein, creatine, vitamins or minerals without known interactions. The product contains no stimulants or substances that would prevent it from being taken alongside other food supplements. However, if you take blood-thinning medication or other prescription medicines, we recommend discussing the combination with your doctor, as higher doses of omega-3 may affect blood clotting. The standard dosage of 4 to 6 capsules daily is considered safe for healthy adults.

When the recommended dosage of 2 capsules 2 to 3 times daily is followed, no side effects are commonly reported. As with other fish oils, mild fishy burps or a feeling of fullness may occasionally occur, particularly at higher doses on an empty stomach. Taking the capsules with food can help prevent this. People with a fish allergy should not take the product. If you take medication that affects blood clotting, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consulting a doctor is recommended.

One serving, or 2 capsules, contains 180 mg of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and 120 mg of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), from a total of 1,000 mg of fish oil. At the recommended dosage of 4 to 6 capsules daily, the body therefore receives 360 to 540 mg of EPA and 240 to 360 mg of DHA per day. The beneficial effect on normal heart function is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA combined, which this product clearly exceeds.

Vitamin E, specifically in the form of D-alpha-tocopherol, contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. In omega-3 supplements, vitamin E also serves as an antioxidant, helping to stabilise the unsaturated fatty acids in fish oil and protect them from oxidation. One serving (2 capsules) contains 5 mg of vitamin E. This combination is common in higher-quality omega-3 products because unsaturated fats are naturally more prone to oxidation than other types of fat.

The pack contains 90 servings of 2 capsules. At the recommended dosage of 2 capsules twice daily (4 capsules in total), the pack lasts approximately 45 days; at 2 capsules 3 times daily (6 capsules in total), it lasts approximately 30 days. This is a practical large pack suitable for longer-term regular use without the need for frequent repurchasing, which is one of the reasons,

The product is unflavoured; the capsules contain pure fish oil with no added flavourings or sweeteners. The capsule itself is made from gelatine, glycerol and purified water and serves only as a shell, preventing direct contact with the taste of the fish oil when swallowed. When the capsule is swallowed whole, most users do not notice the strong fishy taste or smell typical of oil taken directly from a spoon in liquid form.
