◐Partly confirmed1
“OMEGA-3 POWERHOUSE FOR TOTAL BODY WELLNESS*: Omega-3 fatty acids—especially EPA and DHA—are clinically shown to support cardiovascular health,…”
Evidence →The panel lists 950 mg EPA + DHA per serving (1 Softgel). One randomized dose-response trial used 300–1,800 mg/day; omega-3 studies vary widely. This is research context, not a recommendation or safety verdict.
Ingredient research can support context, but it is not a trial of this exact product.
△Claimed without support found1
“OMEGA-3 POWERHOUSE FOR TOTAL BODY WELLNESS*: Omega-3 fatty acids—especially EPA and DHA—are clinically shown to support cardiovascular health,…”
Evidence →We found no named, citable study of this product or formula. The claim may rest on ingredient research rather than a trial of this product.

“THE SPORTS RESEARCH DIFFERENCE: Manufactured in the USA in a cGMP-compliant facility, our Omega-3 Fish Oil is Non-GMO tested,…”
Evidence →No named laboratory or lot-specific certificate was found for this exact product. A related brand page names no testing issuer and links no product-bound report; its UPC is not published. NSF, IFOS, USP, and Informed-Sport were not checked in this record. This is a public-evidence limit, not a finding that testing did not occur.
“THE SPORTS RESEARCH DIFFERENCE: Manufactured in the USA in a cGMP-compliant facility, our Omega-3 Fish Oil is Non-GMO tested,…”
Evidence →“Made in USA” can describe only final bottling. Ingredient-sourcing records were not located for this product.
We looked and found no public proof. That does not count against the product.

Background reading
What the research says about these amounts
Not a score. Studies disagree with each other and change over time, so this sits beside the evidence rather than counting toward it — it is here so you can read the sources yourself.
The panel lists 690 mg of omega-3 (EPA + DHA) per serving. Studies we found used 300 mg–1.8 g a day, so this sits inside that range.
0studied 300 mg–1.8 g
Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
