Question 1

I'm concerned about the capsule size—I struggle with large pills. Are these easy to swallow, and can I take them without food?**

Accepted Answer

These softgels are slightly larger than standard omega-3 capsules, roughly 1.3 inches long. While many users swallow them fine with water, others who are sensitive to pill size prefer taking them with a meal or a spoonful of yogurt to ease passage. We recommend taking them with food to maximize absorption and minimize any minor reflux risk. If swallowing is an issue, you can puncture the capsule and squeeze the liquid into a smoothie or applesauce, though you may notice a mild fishy taste when doing so.

Question 2

Why is the bottle 120 count but only 60 servings? And is the price justified?**

Accepted Answer

The serving size is two softgels per day to deliver the full 1360 mg of combined omega-3s and GLA. This means a 120-count bottle lasts exactly 60 days—two months' supply. While the upfront cost may seem higher than budget brands, the price per gram of active EPA and DHA is competitive when compared to "premium" oils with lower oxidation rates. Many users note that the efficacy (fewer pills needed) and the absence of fishy burps make the cost-per-day comparable to brands that require 4–6 capsules daily.

Question 3

Does the added GLA make this suitable for inflammatory conditions like eczema or arthritis, or is it just a general multivitamin?**

Accepted Answer

The GLA (from borage oil) specifically targets skin barrier health and supports the body's natural inflammatory response. Users with mild eczema or dry skin conditions often report visible improvement in hydration within 3–4 weeks. For joint pain, this formula is moderately effective, but you might prefer Nordic Naturals' ProOmega with extra curcumin if severe inflammation is your primary concern. This is more of a "whole-body" oil—brain, skin, and mood—rather than a targeted heavy-duty joint protocol.

Question 4

I've heard fish oils can cause burping or a fishy aftertaste. Is this actually "odorless" and "no-burp"?**

Accepted Answer

The short answer: yes, for most people. The oil is triple-distilled to remove heavy metals and oxidation byproducts, which is the primary cause of fishy burps. In our review analysis, roughly 85% of users report zero aftertaste, provided they take the capsules with food. If you take them on an empty stomach or with just coffee, you may experience a slight reflux. A practical tip: freeze the capsules for 10 minutes before swallowing—this slows digestion and eliminates any residual taste for even the most sensitive users.

Question 5

How does this compare to the regular ProOmega or ProOmega 2000? Which one should I choose?**

Accepted Answer

This "3-6-9" formula is unique because it adds *Omega-6 (GLA) to the standard EPA/DHA*. The regular ProOmega is pure Omega-3 (no GLA) and is better for basic cardiovascular and brain support. ProOmega 2000 is a higher potency version (2,000 mg per serving) requiring just one single, larger capsule. **Choose this 3-6-9 version** if you specifically want skin hydration, hormonal balance, or mood stabilization. **Choose standard ProOmega** if you're only chasing cognitive benefits, and **ProOmega 2000** if you hate swallowing pills and want maximum potency in one swallow. All share the same Nordic Naturals quality base, but the 3-6-9 is the best "all-rounder" for those with dry skin or PMS-related irritability.
