What makes OmegaSmart MD™ unique from a doctor's perspective?

As a doctor, I’m well-aware of the health benefits of EPA and DHA, and of the importance of taking a quality omega 3 fatty acid supplement. OmegaSmart MD™ is a super-concentrated omega 3 fish oil formula with an incredibly high EPA/DHA concentration. It gives you the EPA/DHA you want without having to take excessive amounts of oversized pills. This makes it easy for anyone to incorporate more healthy omega 3 fatty acids into their diet.

Why would you recommend OmegaSmart MD™ over other omega 3 supplements on the market?

OmegaSmart MD™ essentially gives you a higher concentration of EPA/DHA than most other omega 3 fatty acid products on the market. Each tiny OmegaSmart MD™ yields an impressive 54% EPA/DHA concentration while most large, standard fish oil pills yield only 30%. Compared with other omega 3 fatty acid sources, such as flax oil, OmegaSmart MD™ actually contains up to 14 times more EPA and DHA^‡.

Why do so many people who are aware of the importance of omega 3 fatty acids in their diet still avoid taking omega 3 supplements?

Unfortunately, most flax oil or fish oil pills are large compared to the regular pills people are accustomed to taking, and so some people have difficulty swallowing them. Couple that in with the large number people take and you can see why people would be turned off from taking omega 3 supplements. However, with OmegaSmart MD™, you get a super-concentrated EPA/DHA omega 3 fish oil formula which is small and easy to swallow. OmegaSmart MD™ has made taking omega 3 fatty acids easy.

Fish oil supplements are one of the best sources of omega 3 fatty acids. How does OmegaSmart MD™ overcome the problem of potential fish burps or that lingering fish taste?

When we developed OmegaSmart MD™ we wanted to ensure that not only would it just be a super-concentrated, ultra-pure fish oil formula, we also wanted it to be a pleasure to take. That’s why OmegaSmart MD™ is molecularly distilled and has an odor control feature. Each softgel is enteric coated and lemon scented to control that fishy smell when you take it, and it also means no disgusting fish burps or fish taste that bothers many people. It actually makes taking fish oil enjoyable.
