Curated, not stocked.
Omega-3 is one of the few supplements where the evidence genuinely justifies a place in most people's routines, yet quality across the category is inconsistent. We chose Momentous because the brand applies performance-level standards to its sourcing and manufacturing. For anyone eating less than two portions of oily fish per week — which is most people — a reliable EPA and DHA supplement fills a real dietary gap rather than a speculative one.
About this product
Omega - 3
Momentous Omega-3 is a fish oil supplement providing EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), the two long-chain omega-3 fatty acids with the strongest body of evidence behind them. EPA is studied primarily for its role in supporting a healthy inflammatory response, while DHA is a structural component of brain tissue and the retina. Together, they are among the most researched nutrients in cardiovascular and cognitive health.
This supplement suits a broad range of people: those with low dietary oily fish intake, athletes in heavy training who face elevated inflammatory load, and anyone looking to support long-term brain and heart function. Omega-3s are particularly relevant if a blood test or dietary assessment has flagged a poor omega-3 index — a marker some clinicians now track alongside standard lipid panels.
Momentous is a performance-focused brand with a reputation for formulation rigour, which matters with fish oil. Quality varies considerably across the category: oxidation, purity, and the ratio of EPA to DHA all affect how useful a product actually is. Choosing a brand that applies meaningful quality standards to its fish oil is worth the premium over a supermarket alternative.

How to use
Take 2 softgels daily. Fish oil is best taken with a meal containing fat, which aids absorption and reduces the chance of a fishy aftertaste. Consistency matters more than timing — pick a meal you take reliably each day.

Common questions
Frequently asked
Why EPA and DHA specifically — do I not get enough from my diet?
EPA and DHA are found almost exclusively in oily fish and seafood. Most people in the UK eat well below the recommended two portions of oily fish per week, making dietary intake reliably low. Plant-based omega-3 sources (flaxseed, walnuts) provide ALA, which the body converts to EPA and DHA only very inefficiently.
Can I take this if I am on blood-thinning medication?
Omega-3 fatty acids at higher doses may have a mild effect on platelet aggregation. If you are taking anticoagulants such as warfarin or antiplatelet drugs, speak to your GP or prescribing clinician before adding a fish oil supplement.
How long before I notice a difference?
Omega-3s work gradually. Meaningful changes to your omega-3 index typically take 8–12 weeks of consistent daily intake. Effects on cardiovascular markers or inflammation are not usually felt acutely — this is a long-term foundational supplement.
Is this suitable for vegetarians or vegans?
No. The softgels contain fish oil and the capsule shell is likely gelatin-based. Vegetarians and vegans should look for an algae-derived DHA and EPA supplement instead, which provides the same active fatty acids from the original marine source.
Does fish oil cause fishy burps?
Some people experience this, particularly if taking fish oil on an empty stomach. Taking the softgels with a meal and storing the product in the fridge after opening can reduce oxidation and minimise any aftertaste.
