Barlean's Lemon Creme Omega-3 Fish Oil Liquid

Checked against public sources on July 31, 2026 · LookCloser does not sell or recommend supplements.

Does the marketing hold up?

FDA recall appears in this brand's history. An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.

“Couldn’t verify” means we looked and found no public proof — not a mark against the product. Most supplement claims cannot be independently verified by anyone, so grey is the normal state of this industry.

The checks, one by one

1 promise checks out. 2 could not be fully confirmed from public sources.

Matches the label1

“Epa 1,080 mg per serving”

The label promises 1,080 mg per serving. The panel says 1,080 mg. They match.

Evidence →

Partly confirmed1

“serving includes EPA and DHA fatty acids which may help to support brain, eye, heart, joint, and immune system health so that you can maintain an…”

The panel lists 2,160 mg EPA + DHA per serving (Serving Size 1 Tbsp (15.9 g)). 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.

Evidence →

Ingredient research can support context, but it is not a trial of this exact product.

?Couldn’t verify independently1

“made in the”

“Made in USA” can describe only final bottling. Ingredient-sourcing records were not located for this product.

Evidence →

We looked and found no public proof. That does not count against the product.

FDA recall appears in this brand's history

An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.

Evidence and sources

This recall is not about the product on this page. Barlean's Llc recalled a different product on May 6, 2019. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “Item FG 10079, Barleans, Flax Oil, 100 Softgels per bottle. UPC 7 05875 1007 6.…”

Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked finding
CheckedIs the label honest?

Every ingredient shows its amount · 12 ingredients listed.

Every ingredient shows its real amount — nothing is hidden in a proprietary blend.

Evidence and sources

The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.

Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked finding
CheckedWho is behind it?

The barcode identity checks out · 705875600040.

The barcode matches, so we are checking the right product rather than a look-alike.

Evidence and sources

Open Food Facts resolves 705875600040 to "Seriously Delicious Omega-3 Lemon Creme" (Barlean's Organic Oils) — consistent with this listing.

Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked finding
CheckedCan you trust the review pattern?

We can see 79 of this product’s 969 reviews — the count rose between July 15, 2025 and July 28, 2026. That is too small a slice to say anything about the wider pattern.

A count that moves steadily is ordinary. A sudden burst is what deserves a closer look.

Evidence and sources

Written reviews rose from 890 to 969 between July 15, 2025 and July 28, 2026. The largest rise inside any single 30-day window was about 27, so the count moved in steps rather than in one burst.

Research behind the findings

Dose and research context

The label amount is shown beside the range used in the linked ingredient studies.

Dose vs research

EPA + DHA

2160 mg per serving — above the 300–1800 mg/day used in the linked studies.

Linked ingredient research · label amount, not a recommendation
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 1.08 g 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.
