Omega-3 Supplements

Omega-3s are beneficial for heart, brain, vision, joint, and immune health, and since our body can’t make them, we must obtain them through our diet or a supplement. Shop for omega-3 vitamins and supplements from Carlson in forms, flavors, and strengths for the whole family.

What are the benefits of taking omega-3s?

Though they are considered to be essential fatty acids, the human body cannot produce omega-3s on its own. Also known as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), they play a crucial role in brain function and development. There have been more than 40,000 published studies on the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids, showing that omega-3s promote:

  • Heart Health
  • Cognitive Function
  • Vision Health
  • Joint Support
  • Immune Health
  • Mood Health

What is the best source of omega-3s?

The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends we eat fish at least twice per week to reach the recommended daily intake of omega-3s. Cold-water fish such as tuna, sardines, mackerel, salmon, lake trout, and herring are especially high in omega-3 fatty acids, with mackerel topping the charts at over 5,000 mg per 3.5-ounce serving. Omega-3s are also found in algae, krill, some plants, and even some nut oils.

If you can’t or don’t want to eat fresh fish for dinner a couple nights a week, fish oils and omega-3 supplements are an excellent alternative. To ensure you’re receiving the highest quality supplements, shop Carlson for your children, teen, and adult omega-3s. All Carlson omega-3s are third-party certified and are tested by an FDA-registered laboratory for freshness, potency, and purity.
