1250 Omega-3 (softgel)

A favorite of satisfied customers, Res-Q 1250 is a fish oil concentrate with more omega-3s in a single softgel capsule than most other supplements. Omega-3s, also called fatty acids, are "good fats" and an important nutrient lacking in many American diets.

Res-Q 1250 softgels are ultra-purified to give you omega-3s with no fish oil aftertaste.

8 REASONS TO TAKE FISH OIL

The omega-3s in fish oil are found to support: 

1. A healthy heart*
2. Triglycerides*
3. Circulation*
4. The natural inflammatory response*
5. Joint mobility and flexibility*
6. Brain and eye health*
7. Overall health and wellbeing*
8. Mood*

CONCENTRATED OMEGA-3s

Res-Q 1250 is formulated with 690 mg of combined EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexeanoic acid), the two most researched omega-3s.

Growing evidence shows that EPA and DHA are anti-inflammatory and heart healthy.*  

• Why You Need EPA: EPA supports a balanced inflammatory response throughout the body and promotes cardiovascular function.*  Recent research indicates that chronic inflammation is considered to be a major trigger for disease. 

• Why You Need DHA: DHA is the most abundant omega-3 in the brain and retina. Cells in your body use it to communicate with each other. DHA is important to brain development and function.

• How much EPA and DHA in Each 1250 Softgel?  Each Res-Q 1250 softgel contains 390 mg of EPA and 300 mg of DHA. That is 690 mg of omega-3s for less than $0.28 per capsule; two to three times more omega-3 than other brands.

CLEAN AND PURIFIED IN NORWAY

Res-Q 1250 undergoes an extensive purification process to ensure its purity and safety.* We start with small cold-water fish caught in deep regions of the ocean.

In a pharmaceutically licensed, Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) certified facility in the fjords of Norway, the fish oil undergoes an extensive purification process including molecular distillation to remove pollutants such as PCBs, dioxins and heavy metals like mercury. Each batch is independently three-party tested for purity from 250 possible toxic compounds by Eurofins, one of the top toxicology labs in the world. Lastly Res-Q 1250 is encapsulated and bottled in the U.S.A.

STAYS FRESH WITH NO FISH OIL AFTERTASTE

A special antioxidant blend maintains the freshness inside the capsule. We include a very light lemon/lime flavor for a pleasant taste.  Also available as a refreshing lemon flavored liquid!
