Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 90sg by Now Foods – Essential Fatty Acid Support with Fish Oil
Super Omega 3-6-9 softgels by Now Foods combine borage, fish and organic flax seed oils in one nutritional oil supplement. Unlike a fish-oil-only formula, this blend brings together marine and plant sources of omega-3, omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids.
Each two-softgel serving supplies 800 mg of each oil. These are whole-oil amounts, not amounts of EPA or DHA alone. The 90-softgel bottle contains 45 servings. This distinction helps you compare the formula with concentrated omega-3 products and choose a blend that fits your dietary goals.
Key Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 90sg Benefits
- Provides essential fatty acids that contribute to the lipid building blocks of cell membranes throughout the body.
- Supplies marine omega-3s, including DHA, for nutritional support of normal nervous system structure and function.
- Complements dietary fat intake with seed-oil fatty acids involved in maintaining normal skin lipid function and cellular communication.
How Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 90sg Works
During digestion, the oils release fatty acids that enter the body's circulating lipid supply. Cells use these fats for energy, membrane structure and signaling. Essential fatty acids must come from the diet; omega-9 is different because the body can make it. Combining all three omega families provides varied nutritional fats, but does not establish an ideal ratio for every person or replace a varied diet.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Borage Oil (Seed): Supplies gamma-linolenic acid, or GLA, an omega-6 fatty acid that contributes to the body's fatty acid pool. These nutritional lipids help support normal skin lipid function. GLA also enters pathways that produce local cellular messengers; taking it does not guarantee a particular skin response.
- Fish Oil Concentrate: Provides EPA and DHA directly, rather than relying on conversion from plant oils. DHA is a structural component of brain and retinal cell membranes. Membrane fats help create the flexible surroundings needed by proteins involved in normal cellular signaling, supporting everyday nervous system nutrition.
- Organic Flax Seed Oil: Contributes plant-derived alpha-linolenic acid, or ALA, an essential omega-3 used in normal fat metabolism. The body can convert some ALA to longer-chain omega-3s, but conversion is limited. Flax oil therefore complements, rather than duplicates, the marine fatty acids in this blend.
Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 90sg Is Formulated For
- Adults seeking a combined marine-and-seed-oil supplement rather than fish oil alone.
- Adults comparing nutritional oils for cell membrane support and normal skin lipid function.
- People comfortable with fish-derived ingredients and a bovine gelatin softgel; this is not a vegetarian formula.

Frequently Asked Questions About Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 90sg
What are the benefits of Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 90sg?
This Now Foods blend supplies fatty acids used in cell membranes, normal nervous system function and skin lipid nutrition. Its two-softgel serving combines 800 mg each of borage oil, fish oil concentrate and organic flax seed oil. Fish oil contributes EPA and DHA, while the seed oils broaden the fatty acid profile. The oil amounts should not be confused with equivalent amounts of EPA, DHA or GLA; the label lists those fatty acids separately as naturally variable examples.
Who should take Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 90sg?
The label identifies this formula for adults, particularly those looking for a blend of marine and seed oils instead of a single-source oil supplement. It is not vegetarian: the formula includes fish oil and a bovine gelatin capsule. The suggested use is two softgels daily with food. Anyone who is pregnant or nursing, takes medication or has a medical condition should consult a physician before use. People with fish allergies should review the anchovy, sardine and tuna ingredients with their clinician.
Are there any side effects of taking Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 90sg?
Fish-oil supplements can cause unpleasant taste, bad breath, heartburn, nausea, stomach discomfort, diarrhea, headache or smelly sweat. Discuss anticoagulants such as warfarin with your clinician; high-dose omega-3s can increase bleeding risk. For adults only. Consult physician if pregnant/nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children. Natural color variation may occur in this product. Contains fish (anchovies, sardines, tuna). Not manufactured with yeast, wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, shellfish or sesame ingredients. Produced in a GMP facility that processes other ingredients containing these allergens.
How does Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 90sg support overall health?
Its nutritional role begins with supplying different fatty acids rather than a single isolated omega-3. ALA from flax oil is essential because the body cannot make it. Fish oil supplies EPA and DHA directly, and borage oil contributes GLA. These fats enter normal lipid metabolism and help supply membrane building blocks and cellular signaling pathways. Because ALA conversion to EPA and DHA is limited, plant oil and fish oil are not nutritionally interchangeable. Use this blend alongside varied dietary fat sources.
