Transparent Labs - Omega 3 - 120 Softgels

Transparent Labs Omega-3 is a high-potency fish oil supplement built around VivoMega Ultra — a patented, sustainably sourced Norwegian fish oil delivering an exceptionally high concentration of EPA and DHA in their natural triglyceride form. Each 4-softgel serving provides 3,000mg of total omega-3 fatty acids — 2,000mg DHA and 820mg EPA — the kind of clinically relevant doses that move the Omega-3 Index and produce measurable effects on cardiovascular, cognitive, inflammatory, and joint health. No artificial additives. No fishy aftertaste. Friend of the Sea certified. Third-party tested for heavy metals, PCBs, and dioxins. 30 servings.†

What's Inside Transparent Labs Omega-3

• VivoMega Ultra Fish Oil — 3,000mg total omega-3s per serving

  VivoMega is a patented fish oil system produced from sustainably harvested wild-caught fish sourced from certified Norwegian fisheries. Norway is the global benchmark for fish oil quality — the cold, clean North Atlantic waters produce fish with naturally higher omega-3 concentrations, and Norway's fishery regulations are among the strictest in the world. VivoMega Ultra undergoes an advanced processing method that uses thin-film evaporation technology to achieve an exceptionally high EPA+DHA concentration while preserving the natural triglyceride form of the fatty acids. The result is a fish oil that delivers substantially more EPA and DHA per gram of oil than standard fish oils, with no fishy odor or aftertaste.†

  Why the triglyceride form matters: Most fish oil supplements on the market use the ethyl ester (EE) form, which is a synthetic derivative created during the concentration and purification process. Ethyl ester fish oil is cheaper to produce but significantly less bioavailable than triglyceride form — research shows that re-esterified triglyceride (rTG) fish oil provides up to 76% greater absorption than ethyl ester when not taken with a high-fat meal, and superior absorption even when taken with food. This is the difference between 3,000mg of EPA+DHA actually reaching your bloodstream versus a fraction of that being absorbed and utilized. Transparent Labs uses the re-esterified triglyceride form — the highest bioavailability available in a fish oil supplement.†

• DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) — 2,000mg

  DHA is the omega-3 fatty acid that is structurally integral to the human brain, eyes, and nervous system. Approximately 60% of the dry weight of the human brain is fat, and of that fat, DHA is the dominant omega-3 fatty acid — it forms the phospholipid bilayers of neuronal cell membranes and is essential for efficient neurotransmission, synaptic plasticity, and long-term cognitive function. DHA is not optional nutrition for the brain — it is a structural building block that the brain cannot synthesize in meaningful quantities on its own and must be obtained from diet or supplementation.†

  Research on DHA specifically has documented support for memory retention, cognitive processing speed, visual acuity, mood regulation, and protection against age-related cognitive decline. During pregnancy, adequate DHA is essential for fetal brain development — insufficient maternal DHA is associated with impaired neurodevelopment in the offspring. At 2,000mg per serving, Transparent Labs Omega-3 provides significantly more DHA than most fish oil supplements, which typically deliver 200-600mg DHA per serving.†

• EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) — 820mg

  EPA is the omega-3 fatty acid that plays the primary functional role in inflammatory regulation. While DHA is predominantly structural, EPA is dynamic — it is a precursor to specialized pro-resolving mediators (resolvins, protectins) that actively signal the resolution of inflammatory processes rather than simply blocking inflammatory signals the way NSAIDs do. This distinction is important: EPA doesn't just suppress inflammation, it helps the body actively resolve it through biological pathways that restore normal tissue function.†

  EPA's cardiovascular benefits are among the most extensively documented of any supplement ingredient. Research has shown EPA supplementation reduces serum triglycerides, supports healthy blood pressure within the normal range, reduces platelet aggregation, and reduces cardiovascular event risk in high-risk populations. The landmark REDUCE-IT trial showed that high-dose EPA supplementation reduced major cardiovascular events by 25% compared to placebo in patients with elevated triglycerides and existing cardiovascular disease. EPA is also the primary omega-3 associated with mood support and anti-depressant effects in research — it is thought to work through modulating inflammatory cytokines in the brain that influence neurotransmitter function.†

Frequently Asked Questions About Transparent Labs Omega-3

1. Why does the dose here (2,000mg DHA + 820mg EPA) look different from typical fish oil recommendations?
   Most fish oil supplement labels prominently display the total fish oil content on the front — "1,000mg Fish Oil" — while the actual EPA+DHA content is buried in the fine print and is often only 300-360mg combined. This labeling practice is misleading because the health benefits of fish oil come from the EPA and DHA it contains, not the total oil volume. The rest of the oil is saturated fat and other lipids that provide no meaningful omega-3 benefit. Transparent Labs Omega-3 provides 2,820mg of actual EPA+DHA per serving — placing it among the highest-potency fish oil supplements available without a prescription. Health organizations generally recommend 500mg EPA+DHA daily for general health maintenance, 1,000-2,000mg for active individuals with inflammatory or cardiovascular goals, and higher doses for specific clinical conditions. At 2,820mg EPA+DHA per serving, this formula covers all of these targets in a single daily dose.†
2. What is the DHA:EPA ratio in this formula and why is it weighted toward DHA?
   The ratio in Transparent Labs Omega-3 is approximately 2.4:1 DHA to EPA — meaningfully higher in DHA relative to most fish oil formulas, which typically run closer to 1:1 or lean toward EPA. Transparent Labs has calibrated this ratio to reflect the structural importance of DHA for brain, eye, and nervous system health while maintaining a meaningful EPA dose for cardiovascular and inflammatory benefits. The high DHA content makes this formula particularly strong for cognitive health, mood support, and long-term neuroprotection — the areas where most people who supplement with omega-3s see the most impactful results when omega-3 levels are brought to optimal range.†
3. How does this compare to other fish oils and is the triglyceride form actually worth it?
   Yes, meaningfully so. The absorption difference between ethyl ester and triglyceride form fish oil is well-documented — ConsumerLab research and published pharmacokinetic studies consistently show that re-esterified triglyceride fish oil provides superior absorption, especially outside of high-fat meals. Most people take fish oil supplements as standalone capsules, not always with fatty meals, which is exactly when the form matters most. Cheaper fish oil supplements using ethyl ester form may have impressive EPA+DHA numbers on the label but absorb meaningfully less of that dose than a well-formulated triglyceride oil at the same dose. Additionally, the VivoMega Ultra sourcing from Norwegian fisheries and the thin-film concentration technology produces a fish oil with genuinely exceptional purity — tested to exceed all global standards for oxidation, heavy metals, PCBs, and dioxins. For a supplement that provides real, consistent benefit, those quality markers matter.†
4. Does fish oil cause fishy burps and can I take 4 softgels at once?
   The VivoMega Ultra oil used in this formula undergoes advanced processing that preserves freshness and eliminates the rancidity that causes fishy burps in lower-quality fish oils. The thin-film evaporation technology produces a notably clean oil. User reports consistently note no fishy aftertaste with this product. If you prefer, the 4-softgel daily serving can be split — 2 softgels with one meal and 2 with another — which is how some users prefer to take it. Taking all 4 with a meal containing dietary fat maximizes absorption and further eliminates any possibility of stomach discomfort.†

How to Take Transparent Labs Omega-3

Take 4 softgels once daily with a meal. Taking with food that contains some fat improves omega-3 absorption and minimizes the chance of stomach upset. If preferred, divide the dose — 2 softgels with one meal and 2 with another. Take daily for consistent results. Omega-3 levels increase in blood and tissue over several weeks of daily supplementation — consistency over weeks and months is what produces measurable changes in Omega-3 Index levels and the associated health benefits.†
