So
I keep trying new brands of fish oil, both because I’m asked to and because I’m
always looking for the best supplements at the best price. Last month, I was
given the opportunity to review Life & Food’s Omega-3 Supreme Fish Oil 1400mg capsules. I planned on writing about the benefit of omega-3s, but then I saw
this on Life & Food’s Amazon page and had to share because they summed it
up pretty well.
“Studies have shown that diets high in Omega-3 fatty
acids may lower a person's health risks. Eating a diet rich in fatty acid
containing fish - cold-water swimmers such as pollock, sardines and salmon -
can help lower your cholesterol and blood pressure. Some studies show there is
a proven link that EPA and DHA reduces inflammation from arthritis conditions,
such as rheumatoid arthritis. Other sources of Omega-3 include olive oil,
walnuts and flaxseed.” (From Life & Food’s Amazon page)

After
taking these for a month, here’s what I have to say:
My Review:
3 stars
The
capsules were easy to swallow, and I didn't have to deal with fishy burps or
breath, which was a big relief.
However,
I wasn't a fan of having to take two capsules a day to get an effective dose
instead of one and I wasn't a fan of the fishy smell. The smell of omega oils
doesn't usually bother me, but these did. I also noticed that I seemed to
experience heartburn more frequently as well while taking these this past
month, though I don't know for sure if that was due to these.
All
in all, these were good omega oil supplements, but I probably won't take them
again due to my reaction to taking them. However, I seem to be one of the few
who had issues, so I would still recommend looking at other reviews and trying
these if they sound like something you'd like.

received this product in exchange for an honest review.*
