Sports Research Triple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil

by Sports Research

Sports Research Triple Strength is the documentation review pick for most fish oil buyers. The supplement facts panel on Sports Research's page, checked October 21, 2026, lists one softgel with 1,250 mg of wild Alaska pollock oil concentrate, 1,040 mg total omega-3s as re-esterified triglycerides, 690 mg EPA and 260 mg DHA. The label suggests one softgel daily with food. At $31.63 for 90, that is about $0.35 a day and $0.37 per 1,000 mg of EPA plus DHA by our arithmetic, the lowest in this cluster. The page lists IFOS 5-star and MSC certification. The gaps: no NSF Certified for Sport mark, so tested athletes should look at Thorne, and the softgel uses tilapia gelatin, which matters for some allergies. Buy it if you want one capsule a day at the best price per milligram. This is not medical advice; talk to a clinician first, especially on blood thinners.

950 mg EPA plus DHA in a single softgel, per the supplement facts panelRe-esterified triglyceride form, which ODS describes as somewhat more bioavailable than ethyl estersAbout $0.37 per 1,000 mg EPA plus DHA at list, the lowest in this cluster by our arithmetic
