Bevisning gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Säkerhet caps applied after weighting.

This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Redaktionellt notes

A 2:1 EPA:DHA ratio fish oil aimed at general cardiovascular/brain/joint support; the $61.33 listed price appeared on a multi-size sale listing (120-240 softgels), so per-bottle price should be re-verified at checkout. Source: Anchovy, sardine, mackerel (wild-caught). antioxidant: mixed tocopherols; capsule: bovine gelatin. Consumer sentiment (mixed): Users trust the Jarrow brand and 2:1 EPA:DHA ratio; no IFOS certification is a concern; bovine gelatin noted. Bevisning reviewed: 2026-08-07; refresh due: 2027-02-07.

In plain language

Why this scored this way
