Does the marketing hold up?

Couldn’t verify means public proof was not found; it is not a mark against the product. Ingredient research is not treated as a trial of this exact product.

Partly confirmed1

Advertised health or performance benefit

Published research exists for ingredients in this formula — see Related research below. Whether this product’s doses match those studies could not be confirmed.

What is worth knowing.

Headlines first. Open evidence only when you want the source trail.

Checks outIs the label honest?

Every declared ingredient has an amount · 5 quantified rows.

You can compare each declared dose with research instead of guessing what is hidden inside a 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.

Checks outWho is behind it?

The barcode identity checks out · 737870193715.

The outside identifier points to this product, so the other checks are less likely to be about a look-alike.

Evidence and sources

Open Food Facts resolves 737870193715 to "Omega 3" (Life Extension) — consistent with this listing.

Research behind the findings

Dose and research context

Ingredient context used alongside the captured panel. These sources do not test this product or establish safety or effectiveness.

Dose vs research

1.2 g declared

The panel declares 1,200 mg EPA + DHA per serving, within one studied 300–1800 mg/day context. The fish-oil concentrate total is not substituted for EPA + DHA.

Declared dose sits within the cited study context

Confirmed evidence

What checked out03

These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.

EPA + DHA dose is within one studied range

The panel declares 1,200 mg EPA + DHA per serving (Serving Size 2 Softgels). 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.

Confirmed

Every ingredient amount is disclosed

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

Confirmed

Barcode confirmed in an outside database

Open Food Facts resolves 737870193715 to "Omega 3" (Life Extension) — consistent with this listing.

Confirmed

Documented concerns

What needs caution00

These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.

No contradictions or product-specific cautions were found at this check depth.

Unresolved public record

What is still missing05

We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.

Multi-ingredient formula — panel read, serving weight unknown

We read the full Supplement Facts panel from the listing-image panel (below), but the label doesn’t state a serving weight, so the arithmetic can’t run. A gap in the label’s information, not evidence of a problem.

No data

Research context is available for the listed ingredients

Published sources describe how omega-3 have been studied. This is ingredient context only; the record does not establish that this product delivers the studied dose or outcome. Sources: NIH ODS — Omega-3 Fatty Acids fact sheet, PubMed dose-response trial.

No data

No label filed with NIH's public catalog

The NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database has no matching label yet. Ingestion lags the market — recorded as a gap, not a strike.

No data

This item belongs to a catalog variation family

The paid catalog links this exact item to a parent listing. Review counts on public product pages may be shared across sizes, flavors, or other variants, so the count history is listing context — not evidence that reviewers received or tested this exact variant.

No data

180-day review-count history is on file

Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 154 on 2026-04-08 to 157 on 2026-06-04 (net +3). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.

No data

What to ask and check

What would settle the open questions

Why is this shown?
Everything we couldn’t verify is something a person can still ask about. Rather than leave gaps sitting as dead ends, we turn each one into a specific question — the exact document, citation, or number that would settle it — plus the things you can confirm yourself with the bottle in your hand.

Ask the brand or seller

1

Is this label filed with NIH’s Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD)?

Filing is voluntary, so absence proves nothing — but a filed label puts the full ingredient table on public record where anyone can read it.

2

Where are the ingredients sourced, and where is the product manufactured?

“Made in USA” can describe only the final bottling step. Ask which country the actives came from and whether the facility is audited.

Most brands and sellers publish a contact route. A clear answer adds evidence to the record; no answer leaves the question open.

Check for yourself — no one’s permission needed

1

Compare the panel on the bottle in your hand to the one shown in this record.

Ours was read from listing photos and can contain reading errors. The physical label is the source of truth — if they disagree, tell us and we’ll correct the record.

2

Scan the barcode on the package and confirm it reads 737870193715.

A mismatch between the barcode on the box and the one on the listing is worth pausing over — it can indicate a different variant, a repack, or a counterfeit.

3

Check the lot number and expiry on the bottle against any COA you’re given.

A certificate that doesn’t name your lot doesn’t describe what you’re holding.

These are the open questions on this specific record — not a warning about the product, and not a suggestion to buy or avoid it. Getting them answered is how you decide for yourself.
