Nature's Bounty Omega 3 Plant Based Review

Nature's Bounty Plant-Based Omega-3 is presented as a plant-based alternative to traditional fish oil, made from Algae Oil. The page opens by describing the heart as a champion that beats around 100,000 times per day to power the body's vital systems, and positions this softgel as a way to give it some support. According to the page, just one softgel per day contains 520 mg of Omega-3 to promote heart health and support healthy skin and joints. Algae-sourced Omega-3 is also said to support whole body wellness including circulation, energy metabolism and more. A second paragraph notes that supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA Omega-3 Fatty Acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. One serving of the product provides 520 mg total of EPA, DHA and other Omega-3 Fatty Acids. The Supplement Facts panel lists a serving size of 1 softgel, 30 servings per container, 15 calories, 1 g total carbohydrate, 1 g fat, 1000 mg of algal oil, 520 mg total Omega-3 fatty acids, and 510 mg total EPA and DHA. Percent Daily Values are based on a 2,000 calorie diet, and the page notes that a Daily Value is not established for algal oil. Directions state that for adults, one softgel should be taken daily, preferably with a meal. Other ingredients are modified tapioca starch, glycerin, and tocopherols. The label is marked non-GMO and free of artificial color, artificial flavor, artificial sweetener, sugar, milk, lactose, gluten, wheat, yeast, fish, and sodium, and it is described as suitable for vegetarians. Highlights on the page repeat four claims: may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, contains 520 mg of Omega-3 with 510 mg from EPA and DHA, supports heart, joint and skin health, and is non-GMO and suitable for vegetarians and vegans. The warning advises pregnant or nursing people, anyone taking medications including meds, anyone planning a medical or surgical procedure, and anyone with a medical condition to consult a doctor before use. Users should discontinue use and consult a doctor if adverse reactions occur, keep out of reach of children, store at room temperature, and not use the product if the seal under the cap is broken or missing. The product is manufactured by Nature's Bounty, Inc. in Bohemia, NY. The FAQ on the page advises following the label directions and consulting a doctor or healthcare professional before taking more than the recommended amount.
