Why I Choose EO Mega+ Over Typical Fish Oils

Why I Choose EO Mega+ Over Typical Fish Oils

I’ve taken multivitamins most of my life—and growing up in Hawaii, fish was always a normal part of my diet. Omega-3s are essential for health, but when I started looking for a clean, high-quality fish oil supplement, I kept running into the same concerns: purity, freshness, and safety.

The Problem: Rancidity in Fish Oils

Anyone familiar with seafood knows the delicate nature of fish oils. Omega-3s are polyunsaturated fats—incredible for health, but because of their structure, they oxidize quickly. From the time the oil is extracted, put into softgels, shipped, and stored on a shelf, there’s a high risk that the oil has already gone rancid or is at least partially oxidized.

And this matters: oxidized fish oils don’t just lose potency—they can actually be harmful, creating free radicals that contribute to inflammation, the exact opposite of why we take omega-3s in the first place.

Studies show that 20–45% of fish oil supplements on the market are at least partially oxidized, with many exceeding recommended oxidation limits. That means nearly half the products people are relying on for heart, brain, and immune health could be doing more harm than good.

The Other Concern: Heavy Metals

Fish consumption always comes with questions about mercury and other heavy metals. That’s another reason I trust EO Mega+:

  • doTERRA partners with Pharma Marine in Norway, sourcing from pristine Nordic waters.
  • Every batch is rigorously tested to be free of heavy metals and environmental toxins. The oils are traceable from sea to softgel, ensuring safety, purity, and accountability at every step.
  • This is not something you can count on from every fish oil brand on the shelf.

Why EO Mega+ is Different

There are two unique features that set EO Mega+ apart:

1. Premium sourcing you can trace

  • Sustainably harvested fish from clean Nordic waters.
  • Partnered with Pharma Marine for strict quality and purity.
  • Independent testing confirms no heavy metals or contaminants.

2. The Wild Orange Advantage

  • Each serving includes CPTG® Wild Orange essential oil.
  • Wild Orange is naturally rich in limonene, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect omega-3 oils from oxidation, keeping them fresh and stable.
  • Beyond freshness, Wild Orange contributes its own cardiovascular and anti-inflammatory benefits, enhancing the omega-3s instead of just flavoring them.

What’s Inside: A Unique DHA-Rich Profile

Each daily serving of EO Mega+ provides 1,000 mg total omega-3s:

  • 600 mg DHA – unusually high, supporting brain, eyes, mood, and cognition. New research also shows DHA activates more anti-inflammatory pathways than EPA, with direct benefits for the heart.
  • 200 mg EPA – delivers strong anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular effects.
  • 100 mg other omega-3s for overall fatty acid balance.

This DHA-forward approach makes EO Mega+ especially supportive for mental health and cardiovascular health—two areas I personally value most.

The Top 3 Benefits of EO Mega+

  • Cardiovascular & Inflammatory Support
    Helps maintain healthy cholesterol and triglyceride levels, promotes vascular function, and reduces inflammation—supporting overall heart health.
  • Brain, Mood & Nervous System
    DHA-rich for cognitive performance, focus, emotional balance, and nervous system resilience.
  • Whole-Body Wellness
    Contributes to joint comfort, skin vitality, immune balance, and antioxidant protection—thanks to the synergy of omega-3s and Wild Orange essential oil.

My Takeaway

For me, EO Mega+ isn’t just another fish oil. It’s peace of mind that:

  • I’m not taking something rancid.
  • I’m not being exposed to heavy metals.
  • I know exactly where it comes from.
  • I’m getting the added benefits of Wild Orange.
  • I’m nourishing my brain, heart, eyes, and mood with a clean, potent source of omega-3s.

I especially notice the difference in my mental clarity and cardiovascular health. EO Mega+ gives me confidence that I’m supporting my body the way it needs—without compromise.
