Why omega 3 fatty acids in triglyceride form?
You already know that triglyceride form is better than ethyl ester. The numbers confirm it:
| Triglyceride form | Ethyl ester form |
| Absorption | up to 69 % | approx. 23 % |
| Structure | natural (as in fish) | chemically modified |
| Absorption | directly utilizable | degradation necessary |
| Bioavailability | up to 3x higher | Standard |
Your body recognizes the triglyceride form immediately because it has the same structure as the fat in fresh fish. No chemical conversion necessary, no loss of active ingredients on the way.
Highly dosed: 1000 mg fish oil per capsule with EPA and DHA
GN Laboratories provides 1000 mg of fish oil per capsule, 750 mg of which are pure fatty acids. Standard fish oil usually contains 300 mg. That sounds like marketing, but it's simple math: 75 % concentration instead of 30 %.
With us you get 500 mg EPA and 250 mg DHA per softgel. The 2:1 ratio is no coincidence. EPA plays a role in inflammatory processes in the body, DHA is a building block of your brain cells. For athletes who need both, 2:1 is the preferred ratio in sports nutrition.
A single capsule already covers the minimum amount for heart function, brain function and vision.¹⁾²⁾³⁾
Who are these fish oil capsules for?
Strength athletes: If you train hard four to five times a week, you will first notice the difference in your joints. Many only notice the difference when they stop taking Omega 3 and the stiffness returns. EPA and DHA contribute to normal heart function¹⁾, not a luxury but a basic supply, especially during high-intensity training.
Endurance athletes: long-distance runners, cyclists, swimmers. Your cardiovascular system works under constant stress. DHA and EPA contribute to the maintenance of a normal triglyceride level in the blood⁴⁾, with a daily dose of 4 softgels.
Quality-conscious supplement users: you've already tried cheap fish oil capsules and you know why you're here now. No burping, no cheap ethyl esters, no 30% concentration. DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and vision.²⁾³⁾Two softgels a day are enough for your well-being.
How to dose your fish oil correctly
One capsule a day is not enough for most fish oil products because they only contain 300 mg of omega 3. This fish oil provides 1000 mg per capsule with 750 mg of pure omega 3, so the calculation is different. The following applies to intake:
- Health care: 2 softgels daily
- Active athletes: 3-4 softgels daily
- Intensive training periods: up to 4 softgels daily
Take the softgels with a meal that contains fat. Omega 3 fatty acids are fat-soluble. With a high-fat meal, absorption increases significantly and stomach problems are avoided.
Ideally: one portion for lunch and one for dinner. This way you distribute the daily dose evenly and your body has a continuous supply.
