Overview

Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega delivers 1,280mg of omega-3s per 2-softgel serving (650mg EPA + 450mg DHA) in the triglyceride form for superior absorption. Nordic Naturals is the #1 selling fish oil brand in the United States and is used by more doctors and pharmacists than any other omega-3 brand. All products are third-party tested for purity, freshness, and potency. The fish oil is sourced from wild-caught anchovies and sardines from the coast of Peru.

Pros & Cons

What We Like

  • #1 fish oil brand in the US
  • Triglyceride form — 70% better absorption than ethyl ester
  • 1,280mg omega-3 per serving
  • Third-party tested for purity and freshness
  • No fishy aftertaste (lemon flavored)

What Could Be Better

  • Premium price
  • 2 softgels per serving
  • 60 softgels = only 30-day supply
  • More expensive per mg of omega-3 than competitors

Who Is This For?

Best For

  • Those wanting the most trusted fish oil brand
  • Triglyceride form preference
  • Doctor-recommended omega-3
  • Purity-conscious consumers

Not Ideal For

  • Budget omega-3 seekers
  • Those wanting higher EPA or DHA specifically
  • Vegans (fish-derived)

Our Verdict

9.2/10 — Excellent

Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega is the gold standard of fish oil supplements. The triglyceride form, third-party testing, and sustainable sourcing justify the premium. If budget is a concern, Nutricost offers good omega-3 at a lower price, but Nordic Naturals' purity standards are unmatched.
