Product Information

We support supplements that are evidence-based and rooted in science. We value certain product attributes that we find to be associated with the highest quality products. We prioritize products that are third-party tested and certified by one of three independent, third party certifiers: USP, NSF, or ConsumerLab. We also prioritize non-GMO, Organic, and products that are free of unnecessary and potentially harmful additives. We also consulted registered dietitian Lauren Manaker, MS, RDN, LD, CLEC, CPT, who specializes in pediatric and women’s health to discover what to look for in fish oil supplements. Barleans prefer to use oil from small-bodied fish (anchovy and sardine) as these fish tend to have a much less incidence of heavy metal burden, such as mercury. Barleans also follows strict NSF Good Manufacturing principles to ensure quality, and every product they make is third-party tested, verified in their “Look It Up” program.
