Sports Research Omega 3 Strength Softgels Reviews Summary

Effectiveness

Pros:

• "I know it’s quality fish oil, and is doing what I bought it for."
• "I have ADHD and deal with anxiety and depression most of the time, and really feel that adding a fish oil has helped to balance my moods and mental state."
• "After taking the one she gave to me for a month, it seemed like my hair and nails and skin looked better and just felt healthier."
• "I've been using this product for 6 months now and I have definitely seen a decrease in my triglycerides numbers."
• "After about 2 1/2 weeks of taking it daily, my knee pain that I have had most of my adult life is GONE."
• "I used Omega-3 fish oil during the last few months and my recent lab tests got much better."
• "I started taking the Omega 3, and after about a week, I really noticed my inflammation decreased and my mobility and flexibility increased."

Cons:

• "The capsules are extremely smelly when before they hardly had an odor."
• "This time I was dismayed to discover the Sports Research fish oil capsules had a very distinct, unpleasant fishy taste."
• "I have been taking this once a day for the last two weeks and don't feel any better/worse."
• "They gave me a very undignified side effect but it lasted until my system got accustomed to the dosage."
• "I can't notice a difference how this affected my heart and brain."
• "I have not really noticed a difference because I am in pretty decent shape, 26 years of age, and have a good heart."
• "Obviously I can't actually tell if this is working better than my last fish oil brand."

Quality and Taste

Pros:

• "Well worth the $40, especially when you could pay over $60 for a smaller quantity of similar quality products."
• "Best of all, the product tastes decent than what one would normally expect from a fish oil product."
• "There is no fishy smell or taste. There is a slight lemon flavor which is nice when you place the capsule in your mouth."
• "Great stuff, love that’s it’s IFOS certified."
• "I have tried several fish oil pills and this one is my favorite."
• "High concentration of EPA and DHA— more than most of the competition."
• "I love that it is also IFOS 5 star rated, MSC certified and it's a high EPA DHA content."

Cons:

• "I just received product and have just started so can not say at this time if they will be effective or not."
• "The old labelling used to state this product is molecularly distilled fish oil. The new label no longer mentions that."
• "I was reading the bottle and just saw that it is not FDA approved."
• "The most recent bottles I have received cause you to burp and taste fish afterwards which then sticks around."
• "But this last time there was a heavy fishy odor upon opening the bottle and some stomach upset that same afternoon."
• "This bottle gives you the dreaded 'fish burp'."
• "I've had to shake really hard to get capsules apart. They are misshapen and smell strongly of fish oil."

Value and Convenience

Pros:

• "I hate taking pills, especially big pills, which is the case for most fish oil pills. So I love that I only need to take half as many pills of the Sports Research Omega-3 fish oil to get the same EPA and DHA servings as other leading brands."
• "Pills are big but super easy to swallow."
• "The Omega 3 that I was taking before only had 690 mg for approximately the same price as this. With almost double the mg's this product is better so I don't have to take as much and it lasts longer."
• "I just received the product, but I like the fact that 1 pill contains 1.5 grams."
• "The price is so reasonable which is just the cherry on top."
• "Great Value for a top brand."
• "I also love the company offers a free bottle."

Cons:

• "I especially like that it is sustainably sourced."
• "With the Triple strength of these capsules I only have to take 2."
• "Even though the capsule is large I can swallow it easily."
• "I have purchased this product every few months for the last 2 or 3 years. I have never had an incorrect shipment, a bad product, a fishy smell, a broken capsule."
• "BIGGER PROBLEM Is that they will not let you return the product! (EVEN UNOPENED ONES)"
• "I received the bottle and it had no plastic safety seal on the outside."
• "Unfortunately, you have to pay an arm and a leg for it."
