Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 180sg by Now Foods – Essential Fatty Acid Support
Super Omega 3-6-9 softgels by Now Foods combine fish, borage and organic flax seed oils in one nutritional oil supplement. Unlike a fish-oil-only formula, this blend supplies omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids alongside omega-9 fats, bringing marine and plant oil sources together.
Each two-softgel serving provides 800 mg of each oil. The 180-softgel bottle contains 90 servings. The oil weights describe the source oils, not an equivalent amount of EPA or DHA; those omega-3s are only part of the fish oil's composition.
Key Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 180sg Benefits
- Supports cardiovascular health through nutritional oils that contribute fatty acids used in normal cell membrane structure and cellular communication.
- Helps maintain healthy skin by supplying dietary fats involved in skin structure and normal lipid balance.
- Supports normal nervous system function and immune balance with complementary fatty acids used in cell membranes and local signaling pathways.
How Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 180sg Works
Digestion breaks the oils into components that can be absorbed and transported to tissues. Cells use fatty acids as membrane building blocks, energy sources and starting materials for chemical messengers. Different fatty acids have different roles: flax supplies plant-derived ALA, fish supplies preformed EPA and DHA, and borage supplies GLA. These sources complement one another rather than serving as interchangeable forms of the same nutrient.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Fish Oil Concentrate: Supplies EPA and DHA, omega-3 fats incorporated into cell membranes. Their roles in membrane organization and cellular signaling help explain the formula's nutritional support for normal cardiovascular, nervous system and immune function.
- Borage Oil (Seed): Provides GLA, an omega-6 fatty acid the body converts into longer-chain fats used to make local cellular messengers. These messengers participate in normal cell communication, including immune signaling, complementing the omega-3 sources in this formula.
- Organic Flax Seed Oil: Supplies ALA, an essential omega-3 that must come from food or supplements. ALA contributes to the body's fatty acid supply, but conversion to EPA and especially DHA is limited; flax oil does not replace preformed marine omega-3s.
Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 180sg Is Formulated For
- Adults seeking a combined marine and plant oil supplement rather than a concentrated EPA-and-DHA-only product.
- Adults who can use fish-containing softgels with bovine gelatin; this is not a vegetarian formula.

Frequently Asked Questions About Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 180sg
What are the benefits of Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 180sg?
This formula supplies three nutritional oils to support normal cardiovascular function, healthy skin, nervous system function and immune balance. Each serving combines 800 mg of fish oil concentrate, 800 mg of borage oil and 800 mg of organic flax seed oil. Their fatty acids contribute to cell membranes and cellular messengers. This is a mixed-oil supplement, so the source oil amounts should not be mistaken for the amount of EPA and DHA supplied.
Who should take Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 180sg?
It is formulated for adults who want both marine and plant oils in a single softgel routine. Take 2 softgels daily with food, as directed on the label. The 180-softgel bottle provides 90 servings. Because it contains fish and bovine gelatin, it is not suitable for vegetarians or people allergic to its fish ingredients. Consult physician if pregnant/nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. It is not a children's supplement.
Are there any side effects of taking Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 180sg?
Fish oil can cause an unpleasant taste, bad breath, heartburn, nausea, digestive discomfort, diarrhea, headache or changes in sweat odor. For adults only. Consult physician if pregnant/nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children. 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. Ask your clinician about potential interactions with warfarin or other anticoagulants and before combining omega-3 supplements. Do not use if allergic to its fish ingredients.
How does Super Omega 3-6-9 1200mg 180sg support overall health?
Its oils supply fatty acids that the body uses for membrane structure, energy and normal cellular communication. Fish oil provides EPA and DHA directly, while flax seed oil supplies ALA and borage oil contributes GLA. These fats have complementary roles rather than identical functions. ALA conversion to EPA and DHA is limited, which is why the marine and plant sources are distinct. The blend complements dietary fat intake; it does not replace the nutritional variety of a balanced diet.
