OUR FISH
High-quality, sustainably sourced food-grade fish body oil. The whole fish is used. Body oil is naturally lower in enviromental toxins than liver oils.
GENTLE EXTRACTION
Our unique oil extraction process concentrates and purifies the oil over a minimum of three molecular distillation steps to maintain its natural integrity.
TRIGLYCERIDE FORM
We only use the triglyceride form in all our fish oil, this is the natural structure of Omega 3 oils found in fish and so is the form the body recognises and digests efficiently.
EFFECTIVE
Our fish oil is tested to ensure it is free from environmental contaminants and contains the DHA & EPA stated at expiry date.
Efamol High Strength Omega 3 Fish Oil provides a high intake of DHA and EPA (Omega 3 fatty acids) and AA (Omega 6 fatty acid). A consistent intake of Omega 3 fatty acids contributes to your health and well-being by supporting your brain, eye, and heart health.
The omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA are found in oily fish. The amount of oily fish consumed in a diet correlates with the Omega-3 Index, a measure of the amount of EPA and DHA in a person's blood. A higher Omega-3 Index is linked to better health outcomes. So, in countries where people eat more oily fish, such as in the Mediterranean, Greenland, and Japan, you tend to have lower rates of heart disease, compared to countries where people eat very little oily fish, such as the UK.
Supplementing with Efamol High Strength Omega 3 Fish Oil on a daily basis is a convenient way to boost your intake of DHA and EPA, as part of a balanced and healthy lifestyle. The Efamol fish oil used is of superior standard and is harvested from sustainable stocks. We only use the triglyceride form in all our fish oil, this is the natural structure of Omega 3 oils found in fish and so is the form the body recognises and digests efficiently.

The fish is placed on ice as soon as it’s caught and is processed as soon as possible to maintain freshness. Note that some of the meat is used in sushi so the product must obviously be maintained in excellent condition.
For all Efamol fish oils, the raw material is high-quality food-grade fish body oil. The whole fish is used. Body oil is naturally lower in environmental toxins than liver oils.
Liver oils contain high levels of Vitamin A and Vitamin D. It is possible to exceed the recommended daily allowance for Vitamin A in particular when trying to achieve the required dosage of Omega-3 fatty acids from liver oils - particularly when taken in combination with other vitamin supplements.
Women who are pregnant must take care taking any supplements containing Vitamin A and not exceed the recommended daily intake, this would include from your diet and supplement programme. Cod liver oil is rich in this nutrient and extra care should be taken.
Yes, every batch must contain less than 0.01 parts per million (ppm) of mercury. The fish oil is also tested for approximately 50 other potential environmental contaminants (heavy metals, PCBs, pesticides, etc).
The oil refining technology used is carried out in state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards. This particular process concentrates and purifies the oil over a minimum of three molecular distillation steps using ultra high vacuum and short residence times in order to maintain the integrity of the oil. Every batch is quality tested against defined specifications using pharmacopoeial standards and methods.
Thyme oil and vitamin E are included due to their antioxidant properties: these ingredients help protect the fatty acids in Efalex from damaging oxidation.
Some Omega 3-nutrients can be made in the body. In the case of the two Omega-3 nutrients in Efamol Fish Oil docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), these can be made from ALA, Alpha-lipoic acid. ALA is present in your food for example in seeds including flaxseeds, walnuts, tofu and spinach. However, factors such as age, poor dietary choices including an excess of saturated fats and more can reduce the body’s efficiency in this process. With today’s busy lifestyles we don’t always get enough of what is good for us. Following a varied and balanced diet including oily fish, seeds and dark green leafy vegetables can ensure that you can get an adequate dietary intake of these important nutrients.
It may take up to 12 weeks as fatty acid supplementation provides nutrients that have been depleted from the body and correcting this takes time to achieve maximum benefit. Therefore, allow at least three months before evaluating whether the treatment is effective.
Anyone under medical supervision or taking medication should consult their health care provider seek medical advice before taking any supplement, including those in the Efamol range. There are no known contraindications with other supplements so there should not be a problem taking Efamol products at the same time as other vitamin and mineral supplements.
Care should be taken when combining a range of products into a supplement programme to unsure that the upper safety limits of nutrients are not exceeded.
Every batch of raw material oil and finished product capsules is tested by gas chromatography to ensure that the relevant fatty acids are present within a certain range. That range is specified in the product specification. Only if the oil composition agrees with the specification is it released for sale by the Efamol Quality Assurance Manager.
