If South Africa ate like a fishing village, this article wouldn't exist. Most of us don't — the braai favours other proteins — and the omega-3 fats EPA and DHA arrive by diet or not at all. That's the whole, unglamorous case for a fish oil capsule.
What the label should tell you
Omega-3 is a read-the-back category: the number that matters is EPA + DHA per capsule, not the size of the softgel. Our Omega Oil prints those milligrams plainly, because comparing bottles by their front labels is how people end up paying more for less. Freshness matters too — rancid fish oil announces itself, and quality oils are tested to prevent it.
What it does
EPA and DHA contribute to normal heart function, and DHA to normal brain function and vision — reputations built on decades of research into fish-eating populations. It's a long-game nutrient: months of consistency, not a Tuesday miracle. Anyone on blood-thinning medication should involve their doctor before adding concentrated fish oil; we flag it at the counter routinely.
Taking it
With your fattiest meal of the day, per the label. If you burp fish, freeze the capsules — an old counter trick that works.
