Often fish oil appears inexpensive because it contains low amounts of the beneficial omega-3s called EPA and DHA. To compare pricing it is important to determine how much you are paying per gram for these beneficial ingredients.

Some supplements claim to have high amounts of omega-3 in each capsule but when you look at the label the amounts of EPA and DHA are extremely low or not even specified.

It is also important to check the serving size used to determine the milligrams of omega-3 listed in the supplement facts. A product may look high in omega-3 because the milligrams provided are for several capsules. Knowing how many milligrams of omega-3 is in each capsule will help you avoid needing to take more capsules then you anticipated.

When you do a comparison based on how much omega-3 is in a supplement Res-Q 1250 is most often less expensive. It is a best value because you pay less for the health boosting omega-3s and you get more omega-3s in each capsule compared to than other brands.
