Wondering about the size of the Nature's Bounty Fish Oil 1200 mg softgels? It's a pretty common question!
These softgels, which contain 1200 mg of fish oil and 360 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids (including EPA and DHA), do tend to be on the larger side. However, a lot of folks actually find them easy to swallow, so it might not be as big an issue as you thinkāunless you really struggle with larger pills.
As for the fish oil itself, Nature's Bounty uses a mix of anchovy, herring, mackerel, and sardine, and they go through a purification process to remove mercury. This can be pretty reassuring if you're worried about mercury in fish oil supplements, which is a common concern.
Our research shows that many people appreciate these softgels because they're affordable and don't leave a fishy aftertaste, a problem some other fish oil products have.
On the downside, some people wish there was clearer information about the amounts of EPA and DHA within that 360 mg of Omega-3s. If you're someone who needs to track those specific Omega-3s closely for health reasons, you might want to look into brands that provide more detailed breakdowns.
Overall, these softgels seem to hit a good balance of quality and price, making them a go-to for many people.
Just keep the size in mind if that's something you're concerned about. And if you need precise details on EPA and DHA amounts, maybe check out other brands with clearer labeling.
