About this supplement
What Is Omega 3 - Triglyceride 1000?
Concentrated fish oil in which the fatty acids stay bound to glycerol, the three-armed backbone that carries fats in whole fish. Fish oil concentrate comes to 1.32 grams per serving, a gram of it omega-3 fats. Lemon flavor, and lipase in the softgel.
How It Works in the Body
Fats travel three to a glycerol molecule. In the gut, pancreatic lipase clips them off; the freed fatty acids and the leftover monoglyceride cross into the intestinal lining, which reassembles them and sends them into circulation. From there EPA and DHA head into cell membranes. DHA stays put as structure, most densely in nerve and eye tissue. EPA is pulled back out as raw material for signaling molecules.
What It Supports
- Cardiovascular function: The omega-3 fats in this oil support normal heart and blood vessel function.
- Brain and eyes: DHA supports the normal structure of nerve and retinal membranes.
- Inflammatory balance: EPA supports a healthy inflammatory response through the signals the body builds from it.
- Fat handling: Lipase, the enzyme class that splits dietary fat, is built into the softgel.
Who It May Suit
People who want a concentrated marine omega-3 with the fatty acids in the form they take in fish. The serving is compact, which suits anyone who prefers fewer softgels. It is a fish product with a bovine gelatin shell, so it is not vegetarian or vegan.
Good To Know
The oil is concentrated enough that omega-3 fats make up most of its weight, and those fats are carried on glycerol rather than as ethyl esters. Tocotrienols from annatto act as the antioxidant. Talk with your provider before use if you take an anticoagulant or antiplatelet medicine, or before scheduled surgery, since marine omega-3 fats can affect clotting. Avoid it with a fish allergy.

FAQ
Common questions
What is it?
A concentrated fish oil softgel in which the omega-3 fats remain attached to a glycerol backbone. The concentrate comes to 1.32 grams per serving, a gram of that omega-3 fatty acids. There is natural lemon flavor too, plus lipase and annatto-derived tocotrienols.
How does it work?
Pancreatic lipase splits the fats from their glycerol backbone in the small intestine. The pieces cross the intestinal lining, get put back together, and travel on to your tissues, where EPA and DHA are built into cell membranes and drawn on for signaling molecules.
What makes this form different?
The form and the concentration. The fatty acids sit on glycerol, the arrangement they hold in fish, rather than being carried as ethyl esters. The oil is concentrated enough that omega-3 fats make up most of its weight, and lipase is included in the softgel.
Who is it for?
People who want a concentrated marine omega-3 in a compact serving, and who prefer the glyceride form. It fits omnivore and pescatarian eating. It does not fit vegetarian or vegan ones, and the bovine gelatin shell rules it out for anyone avoiding beef.
What should I know before taking it?
Talk with your healthcare provider before use if you take warfarin, an antiplatelet drug or aspirin, or if you have surgery coming up, because marine omega-3 fats can affect platelet clumping. A fish allergy is a reason to steer clear. Ask your provider if you are pregnant or nursing.
