Equazen® Omega 3 & 6 Capsules, Brain & Cognitive Support, DHA, EPA & GLA, Clinically Researched 9:3:1 Formula, Tasteless & Odourless, Halal Certified, Gluten Free, 180 Pack

I have been using Equazen Omega 3/Omega 6 gel capsules every day for around 19 years, I'm now 43. I take a few supplements each day but Omega 3's are the most important, for the eyes, brain, nervous system and skin. You do not have to worry about Omega 9 as long as you eat the UK recommended portions of vegetables every day. When I discovered Equazen's range back in the early 2000s they were the only company that was providing fish oil Omega 3 supplements with added/concentrated fatty acid chains (EPA/DHA/GLA) in the right proportions for a healthy diet. They are certainly the UK/European leader in this field. You would have to eat a huge amount of expensive oily fish to achieve the same results as taking a few of their gel capsules every day. In the crazy times we now live in, overpopulation and pollution have resulted in most oily fish having small concentrations of poisonous heavy metals in them (from our pollution of rivers and oceans). When you eat lots of oily fish, the heavy metals are absorbed by your body and never expelled. They mostly gather in your liver and can cause health complications in later life. Equazen ethically sources their fish oil and filters the heavy metals out. I still occasionally eat salmon as a treat, but I check where it was caught/farmed - the north Atlantic and Scottish coast are safest. After 19 years of taking Equazen Omega 3s/6s, I can honestly say that my skin is less wrinkled and more supple than all of my same-age friends. My nervous system and reaction times are the same, if not better than they were as a teenager. My memory and concentration are also in tip-top shape for my age. I have genetic myopia (extreme short-sightedness), I've had to wear glasses and contacts since the age of 7 and my eyes continue to deteriorate, but the deterioration slowed down massively around 5 years after starting taking Equazen. It's difficult to say if this slow down was natural or affected by Equazen's omega 3 fatty acid chains. I like to think Equazen has helped my eyes too. Equazen has a baby/children range which I also highly recommend: essential to promote eye, brain and nervous system growth. The brain and nervous system stop growth at around 25 years old, but there are still many health benefits to continued usage. I will make sure my children use it their entire lives. There are references to scientific studies on the Equazen website which prove what I am saying here. In terms of taste and dosage. The gel capsules have a thick casing, designed to dissolve once in the stomach. I take them with meals, in the middle of each meal. This way you never taste them and I believe they are better absorbed by your body - I do this with all my supplements. If I take them without food then occasionally I will burp and have a very light, temporary fish oil taste in my mouth, nothing that could make you gag or be sick. If you take them out of the bottle and they get wet, you can still take the capsules immediately. If they are left out of the bottle they will absorb moisture from the air and get soft, but you can still take them. If they get really wet, they will eventually dissolve and make a mess. If I am staying the night with family/friends I put the required capsules in a smaller bottle, or wrap them in a tissue. It doesn't matter what time of day you take them. My personal dosage is: If I haven't taken them for a while, or I was forced to use another brand, I take 6 capsules daily, 3 capsules in 2 different meals. This is the "charging" phase, to build up omega 3 and fatty acid chains in your body. When you start taking omega 3s you always do this, Equazen recommends for 3 months, which I would also recommend if you have never taken omega 3/6 supplements before. After that I take 3 a day in 1 meal, every day. This is slightly different from the 2 a day that Equazen recommends, but it works for me. For teenagers and adults I recommend keeping an eye on the prices and sales of family-size bottles - 180 to 360 capsules. Much better value for money and they keep for years.

Excellent value for money, the tub will last me 6 months, and at half the usual price. Tub is sealed and dated December 2022 so bags of use by room. Equazen are excellent quality omega 3, they have higher concentrations of the two key ingredients you should look for (DHA& EPA). Cheaper have larger amounts of fish oil and less actual omega 3. I have certainly noticed an improvement in my concentration levels and feel generally healthier. My son who has ADHD takes the children’s version and the improvement in him is massive. Don’t buy cheap, buy these.

I bought to help get me on track. ADD and AHD are genetic in our family and my son's consultant had advised that he refer me for assessment, as well. I didn't proceed as I was too busy struggling to help my son and was a working single mother. I wish I had. The last few years it seemed to have become worse (ADD) and it has always been in the back of my mind that fish oils were known to help with brain function and I had seen this first hand over the years. The change has been amazing. I now have concentration, focus, and clarity of mind. I now have a short term memory! For the first time since I can't remember when, my head is "quiet". I start projects but never finish them through getting distracted, lose interest or simply become overwhelmed. It's started slowly, but jobs are getting done:) I was on a high dose of Prozac for years - I'm now off them. So pleased with the results and will continue to use them. Had to do a continuation today. I have spent four hours ironing (30 mins was my max previously) took loads of stuff down the recycling and put up the new curtains that have been sitting in their packaging for weeks! It wasn't not being done not through laziness, but feeling overwhelmed. That seems to be fading, feeling a real sense of achievement today:)

My whole family have been taking these for a number of years now. They definitely have a positive effect on memory, joint health and general well being. They aren’t cheap but are a high quality fish oil that doesn’t leave a nasty fishy taste repeating on you all day. My son is hypermobile and they help with his joint pain. I have also noticed an improvement in concentration after taking them too. The results aren’t instant but after a few months we all noticed the benefits.

1st Dec 2024 (360 capsules) the Equazen were bought, I take two capsules a day & just noticed they were out of date in March 2025. Will they be okay & work properly as I’ve still been taking them & it’s May! I’m a bit annoyed because they are very expensive & think anyone buying from this seller should check the expiry date when you get your delivery. Anyway, This brand works for me.

Excellent value for money.

As described good value for money

If you are looking for a natural vitamin supplement to try for concentration. Very effective. Worth the money. No smell. Easy to use. No taste.
