If you take the time to do an accurate analysis of omega 3 products you will find that with the liquids you can get the same active ingredients of omegas at less than 40% of the cost of softgel products.
Let’s compare softgels versus liquid in a popular omega product line:
Soft Gel Omega 3 Total Omega 3’s per serving (2 softgels) = 690 mgs
Retail cost per serving= .50
Liquid Omega 3 Total Omega 3’s per serving (1 teaspoon) = 1725 mgs
Retail cost per serving=.50
1725/690=2.5
As you can see from above, with the same cost per serving you will get 2.5 times the Omega 3’s by switching to a liquid form. You would have to take 5 soft gels each day to equal one teaspoon of the liquid.
One other fact about omega 3’s-THE MORE THE BETTER! Every piece of research I have ever read involving omega 3’s for treating any kind of preexisting condition has been done on levels much higher than what is recommended on the typical softgel bottle. At the doses recommended on the liquids I have seen great success of Omega 3’s on arthritic conditions, psoriasis, triglyceride balance, blood pressure, and improvement in cholesterol ratios. The problem is that many people think they are taking enough to help with these conditions when they are not. People just don’t want to take 5 pills each day and the supplement manufactures know it. Plus they will price themselves out of the market. That is why they only recommend 2 each day. SWITCH TO A LIQUID!
