omega-3 potency+
(semi-annual)

Take 2 gelcaps daily at or around the time of a meal (or snack), or as directed by your health care practitioner. Keep out of reach of children. Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry place without direct sunlight. Although this supplement is relevant and helpful during the perinatal period, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding or planning to become pregnant, out of an abundance of caution, we recommend consulting your health care practitioner before using omega-3 potency+ or any dietary supplement product. Please note, for those with food allergen considerations, omega-3 potency+ contains fish (fish oil: anchovy; gelatin softgel: tilapia).

You can take omega-3 potency+ at any point in the day around the time of a meal (or snack), or as directed by your health care practitioner. The absorption of these fat-soluble omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) is naturally optimized by consuming them with some fat from your diet. Some customers prefer to take omega-3 potency+ at the same time each day (e.g., with lunch or dinner) so it's easier to remember and establish a routine.

mindbodygreen's omega-3 potency+ lives up to its name because it's potent. One serving (2 gelcaps) of omega-3 potency+ delivers 1,500 milligrams (1.5 grams) of EPA + DHA. That’s equivalent to the omega-3s (EPA + DHA) provided in 1 serving of oily fish (anchovies)!

This potent amount of EPA and DHA is rare to find in the market. Many fish oil products will tout the overall fish oil milligram or gram amount on the bottle, or maybe the omega-3 concentrate amount. These numbers will read high (inflated), but they're not the numbers that matter. For health purposes, what really matters here is the total EPA and DHA.*

mbg's omega-3 potency+ represents the latest in science and technology. This is the new-school of fish oil. We have optimized source, potency, form, purity, sustainability, user experience (i.e., no fishy aftertaste), and even 3rd party certified transparency and traceability.

First up, source. We include premium fish oil that's sustainably sourced and manufactured from wild-caught, cold-water anchovies from the South Pacific (Chile, specifically).

Next up, potency. You see, potency is directly tied to efficacy. Potency means a science-backed, useful dose of an active ingredient (in this case, EPA and DHA). mindbodygreen’s omega-3 potency+ earned its name, because you’ll find 1,500 milligrams (1.5 grams) of EPA plus DHA in each serving (just two softgels). This amount of omega-3s is highly competitive in the industry and is the omega-3 equivalent of consuming a serving of oily fish (e.g., anchovies).*

You also want to consider form. Why? Form is everything when it comes to bioavailability in your body. We made sure to include the superior form of EPA and DHA (triglyceride), which are clinically shown to be most bioavailable in the body. In fact, triglycerides are the native form of omega-3 fats found in the fish itself! mindbodygreen's omega-3 potency+ intentionally leans into this native triglyceride form and bioavailability advantage it delivers. This product delivers a 4:3 ratio of triglyceride EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids from third-party verified pure anchovy from the South Pacific.*

Our product is also unique because it's transparent. mbg's omega-3 potency+ go above and beyond in the industry, because this premium oil has been fingerprint verified using magnetic resonance technology for authenticity (fish species) and traceability/origin (location of fishery) via third-party testing known as ORIVO. This designation is extremely rare to find on fish oil products, particularly on those sold in the U.S. We proudly display the ORIVO check mark seal on each bottle of omega-3 potency+.

You want a fish oil from a brand who cares about the raw materials (fish oil), the finished product, and everything in between. That's mindbodygreen. We care. For fish oil, purity (especially heavy metals, dioxins, furans, and PCBs) is of utmost importance, so we made sure purity was optimized in our product. Furthermore, the fish oil used in omega-3 potency+ boasts patented purification technologies to maximize purity parameters and minimize oxidation, creating a clear fish oil. It's purity you can literally see.

Next, our next-generation fish oil is complemented by two botanicals. An infusion of organic lemon oil from U.S.-grown lemon trees combat fish burps and means no fishy aftertaste for you! We further optimize our omega-3 potency+ formula with the evergreen herb, rosemary, a fragrant botanical from the mint family. This rosemary extract naturally supports the freshness and shelf-life of the fish oil.

Last but certainly not least: sustainability. It's important to back brands and invest in products that include sustainably sourced, wild-caught, cold-water fish. That's mbg's omega-3 potency+. We respect the sea and ocean-life in the sourcing of this fish. From a lower carbon footprint from the fish catch to our manufacturing facilities, to the recyclable amber glass bottle omega-3 potency+ comes in, we prioritize environmental sustainability and the planet.

To deliver fresh fish oil and fresh taste (in case of fish burp), mindbodygreen strategically includes organic lemon oil and rosemary extract infusion in omega-3 potency+.

Fish burp is a natural phenomenon, and one that is often misunderstood. What's not normal is an overly fishy fish burp, which directly reflects the quality (or lack thereof) of the omega-3 fish oil product you've swallowed. In addition to extremely fresh and pure fish oil from 100% wild-caught, cold-water South Pacific anchovies off the coast of Chile, mbg's omega-3 potency+ infuses organic lemon oil and the rosemary herb to thoughtfully counteract fish burp (organic lemon oil) and enhance the fish oil's antioxidant capacity and freshness (rosemary).

Some customers report freezing their fish oil to reduce a fishy aftertaste. You should not freeze omega-3 potency+. Freezing conditions are not how the stability of the fish oil was tested, and freezing the fatty acid matrix could negatively impact the release of these healthy fats from the softgel into the gut, therefore, limiting absorption and circulation throughout the body.*

People take omega-3s for different and personalized reasons. The targeted nutritional support of marine omega-3s EPA and DHA is rooted in science, with hundreds of clinical studies completed to date. Over 90 percent of Americans are falling short on recommended levels of omega-3 intake. Therefore, a daily omega-3 supplement represents an incredibly useful strategy to address this gap, promote healthy omega-3 levels in the body, and nurture long-term omega-3 status (i.e., omega-3 index).*

Furthermore, antioxidant fats EPA and DHA have healthful whole-body actions that combat oxidative stress while also promoting a healthy inflammatory response. This has massive implications for daily oxidant-vs.-antioxidant balance, as well as resolution of inflammatory pathways. Additionally, these two omega-3s are critical for cellular membrane fluidity and cellular signaling and functioning throughout the body.*

Practically, this translates into EPA and DHA being a daily essential for heart, brain, joint, eye, immune, perinatal, and overall health. Particularly famous for their cardioprotective benefits, these two omega-3 fats nurture vascular function and cardiovascular wellness via 360° heart health support of healthy lipids, heart rate, and blood pressure. From immune function of our innate and adaptive immune responses, vision support, neuronal transmission and cognitive health, and joint mobility, to the perinatal support of baby's eyes and brain, the paramount importance of omega-3s EPA and DHA cannot be underscored enough.*

Absolutely, yes! In fact, we formulated omega-3 potency+ with the rest of our supplements+ portfolio in mind. This high-potency omega-3 supplement is designed to complement all of our other products. Many customers consider omega-3 potency+ to be a daily essential in their nutrition supplementation regimen, along with ultimate multivitamin+, vitamin D3 potency+, and many others!

Our high-quality formulas are delivered in premium, sustainable, and recyclable packaging (recyclable amber glass bottles and jars, recyclable bags, and recyclable cardboard shipping boxes made from 100% recycled paper). Always looking towards the latest innovations, we carefully and intentionally source our eco-friendly packaging to prioritize the environment, but also to protect the premium ingredients in our capsules, gelcaps, and powders (i.e., vitamins, minerals, botanicals, peptides, probiotics, bioactives) from UV light degradation. This is pivotal to ensure quality standards throughout the lifecycle of the product.

Unfortunately many refillable bags or containers do not provide the same protection and stability for our ingredients as our amber glass (bottles, jars) and PET bags achieve. What's more, the product-specific manufacturing information (i.e., specific identifiers such as the lot and date) stamped on each product would be lost when the customer discards the refill packaging, as is customary. That lost information would not enable us to comply with a variety of very important FDA regulations specific to dietary supplements (e.g., cGMPs, adverse event reporting, etc.), and regulatory compliance is something that mindbodygreen respects and prioritizes. From an additional safety standpoint, there are also microbial contamination concerns with refillable vessels over time. Thank you for your consideration as to why we have thoughtfully curated our packaging in the way we do.

No, fish oil is not vegan because it comes from fish! In this case, pure anchovy oil from 100% sustainably sourced, wild-caught, cold-water anchovy from the South Pacific. Additionally, this premium fish oil is encapsulated in a gelcap/softgel, and the gelatin we use for that gelcap/softgel is also from fish, tilapia specifically. Because of the pure and concentrated nature of this supplemental product and the health benefits of omega-3s EPA and DHA, many of our vegetarian and even some of our vegan customers choose to take omega-3 potency+ nonetheless.
