Garden of Life Ultra Pure EPA/DHA Omega 3 Fish Oil - Oceans 3 Beyond Omega 3 Supplement with Antioxidants, 60 Softgels

Like the flavour and great manufacturer

I have been taking this product religiously for 2 years now. I am thrilled to tell you that after trying a zillion other products this one is the winner. I was diagnosed in 2001 with a rare illness called Dermatomyositis. After 8 years looking for a cure and trying everything under the sun I took matters into my own hands. I read how wonderful fish oil was for you and how in the past it has put some people into remission who have autoimmune related problems. After experimenting with several brands, I was introduced to this one by a herbalist at a natural foods store. I would have to say within two weeks I saw a huge difference in the way I felt and my energy. With in one month I was off most of my medications, and no longer having to take my infusions of IVIG. It was such a remarkable recovery that my doctors are now true believers. Just something as simple as this fish oil took care of something that had plagued my life for 8+ years. I am truly happy to say that my daughter who is dyslexic and my son who has ADHD started taking this product as well and we have had wonderful results. Their teachers were coming up to me asking me what medication they were on! I am writing this review to get the word out about how amazing this product is so that I might be able to convince others to give it a try! I assure you, you will not be disappointed!!!

Costo alto

I had been taking Ocean's Mom along with my prenatal vitamins and I was frustrated that I would have to purchase 4 bottles for 2 months (plus, the bottles were practically empty).After comparing the contents and prices, I've started to use these and plan to throughout breastfeeding per my OB for their comparable amount of DHA, Omega-3's and considerably larger amount of EPA:Ocean's Mom = take 2 daily, purchase 4 bottles to get 120 capsulesOcean's 3 = take 1 daily, purchase 2 bottles to get 120 capsulesFYI - While still "strawberry-flavored," those with a more delicate demeanor during pregnany should know that these pills are huge...unlike Ocean's Mom which are tiny and very easy to take. No gross taste if you burp, but if you can't swallow easily, then stick with Ocean's Mom. Love this company and thankful to my prenatal nurse mom and friends for making me aware of them!

Highly recommend to everyone, especially those with certain learning disorders such as ADD/ADHD. I am one such person and struggle with retention of my studies. After two weeks of taking these everyday I noticed a marked improvement in my long-term retrieval of info I studied long before I started taking these pills and struggled to recall before taking them. In the weeks to follow my short-term memory recall also improved. I still find I need prescription medicine for attending to and focusing on my studies, but the significant improvements in memory, skin, and mood from taking these pills is more than I could have hoped or asked for. Also, I find that I am now better able to cross-reference different types of information, think more critically and more quickly as well as understand more complex information much easier. Give them a try, I can't imagine them not helping everyone.

My endocrinologist advised me to take this particular brand of fish oil. I have taken it and find that I do not have digestive difficulties with it. This brand is also found at my local organic food market. Highly recommend!**UPDATE** - I began to suffer bad heartburn at night - the kind that actually bubbled up. I took Oceans 3 with dinner or near bedtime. I tried numerous options such as elevating my head/shoulders at night, stopped taking Zypan (which I took for digestive health but which had stomach acid in it) - eliminated red sauce, chocolate (don't drink coffee, tea, or soda) dairy - nothing helped except Nexium or Zantac, which gave me unwanted side effects. I ran out of Oceans 3 and I noticed after several days that the heartburn went away. I was floored. I don't know why it gave me heartburn but wondered about its thick, dark encasement. Gummy bears give me heartburn, so I am wondering if some ingredient in the outer encasement was the cause. I now take Omega Brite fish oil (at night around bedtime like I did with Oceans 3), and do not suffer heartburn. Taking away 2 stars for this problem.
