Hi,

Would you please compare the following, focus on quality and substance, not price:

1. Dr Sears OmegaRx Fish Oil, 1000 mg, 120 capsules

2. Zone Perfect Omega 3, 1000mg Capsules

Thank you.

I'd buy Zone Perfect Omega 3 because:

-They contain a high amount of vitamin E.
-Daily dosage is 4 capsules (thus not much cheaper than the other,
more concentrated brand), so you get a larger amount of other
beneficial fats, not just EPA and DHA.

Mao,

My rheumatologist recommended Omega 8060, from Neptune Health:

Comparing the quality of one brand with another is difficult, since
the FDA does not maintain tight regulation of this type of supplement.

Hello Pink,

Appreciate the feedback, I sure I'm asking a difficult question to
show an authenticated answer to, but what I need is an intelligent
personal conclusion from the information that is available and I do
not expect it to be more than that. :-)
