Some ‘high strength’ omega-3 supplements contain ‘surprisingly low’ amounts

Nutrition experts from Which? conducted an assessment of 24 omega-3 supplements to evaluate their actual potency. The analysis compared these products against the official guidance provided by the Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition. The findings revealed that several supplements marketed as ‘high strength’ actually contain surprisingly low amounts of the active ingredients. This discrepancy highlights a significant gap between the marketing claims of certain omega-3 products and their actual nutritional content as measured by experts.
