Who OmegEssential Forte Is For

  • Adults who want a maximum strength, high-EPA omega-3
  • People looking to support cardiovascular health and help reduce serum triglycerides
  • Anyone wanting omega-3 support for healthy mood balance
  • Those looking to support cognitive function
  • People who prefer softgels over a liquid fish oil

Who this product is NOT for:

  • Vegetarians and vegans — it contains fish oil and a gelatin softgel
  • People with a fish allergy
  • Anyone who wants a once-a-day product — the full serving is 4 softgels split over two meals
  • Those who only need a basic daily omega-3 — Progressive OmegEssential is a lower-dose option

Vitamart's Take

OmegEssential Forte is Progressive's highest strength fish oil softgel, and the numbers show it: 1,600 mg of EPA and 800 mg of DHA per daily serving. It's built for people with specific goals — heart health, triglycerides, mood and cognition — rather than general maintenance. The natural orange flavour and split dosing with breakfast and dinner make a 4-softgel routine easier to stick with.

How OmegEssential Forte Compares

Forte vs. regular OmegEssential softgels

Regular Progressive OmegEssential gives 1,000 mg EPA and 550 mg DHA per 4 softgels. Forte raises that to 1,600 mg EPA and 800 mg DHA for the same number of softgels.

Forte vs. OmegEssential + D

OmegEssential + D pairs the regular-strength fish oil with 1,000 IU of vitamin D3. Forte focuses on a higher omega-3 dose with no added vitamin D.

Softgels vs. liquid

Softgels are easy to take on the go. A liquid fish oil delivers a large dose in a single spoonful but needs refrigeration after opening.

What Is EPA and DHA?

  • EPA and DHA are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids found mainly in fish and seafood
  • The body makes only small amounts, so diet and supplements are the main sources
  • Small, cold water fish like sardine, anchovy and mackerel are naturally rich in both
  • A 2:1 EPA to DHA ratio means the formula is weighted toward EPA
  • Natural antioxidants such as mixed tocopherols and rosemary extract help protect fish oil from oxidation

Recommended Purpose

  • Supports cardiovascular health
  • Helps to reduce serum triglycerides
  • Promotes healthy mood balance
  • Promotes cognitive function

How To Use

  • Take 2 softgels with breakfast and 2 softgels with dinner, for a total of 4 softgels per day
  • Or take as directed by a health care practitioner
  • Keep out of reach of children
