KAL's Omega-3-6-9 Complex combines three sources of unsaturated fatty acids in one softgel: molecularly distilled cold-water fish oil, borage seed oil, and cold-pressed organic flaxseed oil. The format is designed for those who want to get a balanced omega-3 profile with a minimum number of capsules per day.
Composition and sources of omega acids
One 1200 mg capsule contains omega-3, omega-6 and omega-9 from three different sources. Fish oil provides EPA and DHA, the most studied forms of omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids. Borage oil is a source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6. Cold-pressed organic flaxseed oil supplies alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a plant-based omega-3.
The composition also includes vitamin E - as an antioxidant to protect lipids from oxidation directly in the capsule. Excipients - gelatin and glycerin (soft capsule shell), without unnecessary fillers.
What is different about molecular distillation of fish oil?
Molecular distillation is a method of purifying fish oil under vacuum at low temperatures. KAL uses this process to remove heavy metals, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dioxins, furans and other contaminants. Borage and flaxseed oils are cold-pressed without solvents - this preserves the fatty acid profile intact.
The purity standard is designated as Clear Quality - KAL's internal quality control program, which has been in place since the company was founded in 1932.
How many capsules of omega-3-6-9 should I take per day?
The manufacturer recommends taking 1 capsule up to 4 times a day with meals or a glass of water. Taking with meals reduces the likelihood of fishy belching - a typical practical point for any fish oil capsule. The daily amount depends on individual needs and can vary from 1 to 4 capsules.
Who is this format suitable for?
100 softgels per pack - when taking 1 capsule per day, this is a supply for over three months, with 2 capsules - for 50 days. The softgel capsule format is convenient for those who have difficulty swallowing hard tablets or who avoid liquid oils because of the taste.
Omega-3-6-9 in this combination is often chosen as a daily support for a diet lacking in fatty marine fish and plant sources of unsaturated fatty acids. KAL positions this formula as the answer to the typical imbalance of fatty acids in the modern diet.
Storage conditions
Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Fish oil softgels are sensitive to heat and moisture - do not leave the package open for long periods. After opening, it is recommended to store in the refrigerator to maintain the freshness of the oils.
