Product sources & research notes

Listing and manufacturer details describe the label; they do not independently verify product claims. Check the current pack before use.

Manufacturer nutrition panel confirms two softgels: DHA 300 mg, EPA 150 mg. One FAQ reverses the names; panel values agree with Amazon. Capsule starch varies between sources; check current pack. Excluded from top picks until reconciled.
