Why It Works

Key Benefits

🐟
EPA and DHA per Serving
The supplier label states 180 mg EPA and 120 mg DHA per serving, from fish oil concentrate in a gelatin softgel with natural vitamin E. The suggested use is one softgel twice daily with meals, so check the label for the serving size. Omega-3 trials have used amounts from 0.5 g a day to more than 5 g a day.
❤️
Heart Health: Mixed Evidence
A Cochrane review of 86 trials (162,796 people) found little or no effect of long-chain omega-3 on all-cause mortality or cardiovascular events (high-certainty evidence), with possible slight reductions in cardiovascular mortality (relative risk 0.92, moderate-certainty) and in coronary heart disease events (low-certainty). REDUCE-IT (a prescription EPA drug, 4 g/day, 8,179 patients) found fewer events (17.2% vs 22.0%) but more hospitalisations for atrial fibrillation or flutter (3.1% vs 2.1%); STRENGTH (4 g/day of EPA and DHA, 13,078 patients) found no difference. These products and doses are not the same as over-the-counter fish oil.
🩸
Triglycerides: Depends on Dose
In the Cochrane review, increasing long-chain omega-3 lowered blood triglycerides by about 15%, in a dose-dependent way (high-certainty evidence). The label amount here is 180 mg EPA and 120 mg DHA per serving, far below the 4 g/day used in the large heart trials. Triglycerides and heart risk are best discussed with your doctor.
🧠
Brain and Mood: Limited Evidence
A review of 38 trials (49,757 people) found no or very little effect of long-chain omega-3 on new neurocognitive illness or cognitive impairment. A meta-analysis of 26 trials (2,160 people) found a small average effect on depressive symptoms; benefit was seen with EPA-dominant formulations (at least 60% EPA) at 1 g/day or less, but not with DHA-dominant ones. Omega-3 is not a treatment for depression.
⚠️
Heart Rhythm, Bleeding and Medicines
A meta-analysis of 7 trials (81,210 people) linked omega-3 supplements to a higher risk of atrial fibrillation (hazard ratio 1.25), larger in trials using more than 1 g/day. A meta-analysis of 11 trials found no overall increase in bleeding, but high-dose purified EPA was linked to a small increase. One case report described a rise in INR when a patient taking warfarin doubled fish oil to 2,000 mg/day. Ask your prescriber or pharmacist first if you take blood thinners or have a heart rhythm condition.

Science

Clinical Evidence

Published research relevant to this product. These studies were generally not conducted on this specific product.

🔬
In a Cochrane review of 86 randomised trials (162,796 participants), increasing long-chain omega-3 had little or no effect on all-cause mortality or cardiovascular events (high-certainty evidence), probably slightly lowered cardiovascular mortality (relative risk 0.92, moderate-certainty), may slightly reduce coronary heart disease events (low-certainty evidence), and lowered triglycerides by about 15% in a dose-dependent way
🔬
In a meta-analysis of 10 large trials (77,917 high-risk people; EPA doses 226 to 1,800 mg/day), omega-3 supplements had no significant association with coronary heart disease death, non-fatal myocardial infarction or major vascular events
🔬
In REDUCE-IT (8,179 statin-treated patients with raised triglycerides; icosapent ethyl, a prescription EPA drug, 2 g twice daily), cardiovascular events occurred in 17.2% vs 22.0% with placebo, and hospitalisation for atrial fibrillation or flutter was more common (3.1% vs 2.1%). The trial does not test over-the-counter fish oil
🔬
In STRENGTH (13,078 statin-treated people at high cardiovascular risk; 4 g/day of an EPA and DHA formulation vs corn oil), major cardiovascular events occurred in 12.0% vs 12.2% (hazard ratio 0.99); digestive adverse events were more frequent with omega-3 (24.7% vs 14.7%)
🔬
In a meta-analysis of 7 trials (81,210 participants), marine omega-3 supplements were associated with a higher risk of atrial fibrillation (hazard ratio 1.25); the hazard ratio was 1.49 in trials testing more than 1 g/day and 1.12 in trials testing 1 g/day or less
🔬
In a meta-analysis of 35 trials (114,592 people), only people at high cardiovascular risk taking more than 1,500 mg/day of EPA and DHA showed a statistically significant increase in new atrial fibrillation (absolute risk difference 0.8%); the other three groups did not
🔬
In a trial of 25,119 adults without prior cardiovascular disease, cancer or atrial fibrillation, 840 mg/day of EPA and DHA did not significantly change the risk of atrial fibrillation (hazard ratio 1.09, 95% CI 0.96 to 1.24) over a median of 5.3 years
🔬
In a meta-analysis of 11 trials (120,643 patients), omega-3 was not associated with increased bleeding overall (rate ratio 1.09); high-dose purified EPA was linked to a 50% relative increase in bleeding, about 0.6 percentage points in absolute terms
🔬
In a meta-analysis of 90 trials, omega-3 supplements were associated with higher odds of diarrhoea, taste disturbance and bleeding tendency than placebo, and no definite serious omega-3-related adverse event was reported
🔬
A case report described a 67-year-old woman on warfarin whose INR rose from 2.8 to 4.3 within a month after she doubled her fish oil from 1,000 to 2,000 mg/day, and fell again when the dose was reduced
🔬
In a randomised trial of 16 patients on chronic warfarin, fish oil at 3 or 6 g/day for 4 weeks produced no statistically significant change in INR
🔬
In a meta-analysis of 17 trials, mostly at more than 3 g/day of omega-3, systolic blood pressure fell by about 5.5 mmHg in people with untreated hypertension and by about 1.0 mmHg in people with normal blood pressure; belching and a fishy taste were reported by 28% of omega-3 participants vs 13% of controls
🔬
In a meta-analysis of 26 trials (2,160 participants), omega-3 had a small overall benefit on depressive symptoms (standardised mean difference -0.28); benefit was seen with EPA-pure and EPA-major formulations (at least 60% EPA) at 1 g/day or less, but not with DHA-pure or DHA-major formulations
🔬
In a review of 38 randomised trials (49,757 participants), long-chain omega-3 had no or very little effect on new neurocognitive illness, new cognitive impairment or global cognition (moderate-quality evidence)

Key Features:

  • Contains 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA per serving.
  • Fish oil softgel. Studies of omega-3 supplements for heart health have given mixed results (see below).*
  • Convenient softgel form for easy daily use.
  • Made with fish oil concentrate and natural Vitamin E.
  • Manufactured in the USA

Kasivit Omega-3 Supplements are fish oil softgels. The supplier label states 180 mg EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and 120 mg DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) per serving, and the suggested use is one softgel twice daily with meals, so check the label for the serving size. EPA and DHA are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids found in oily fish.

Studies of omega-3 supplements have not shown a clear heart benefit overall. A Cochrane review of 86 trials found little or no effect of long-chain omega-3 on all-cause mortality or cardiovascular events (high-certainty evidence), with possible slight reductions in cardiovascular mortality (moderate-certainty) and in coronary heart disease events (low-certainty); triglycerides were about 15% lower, with the effect depending on the dose. The REDUCE-IT trial (4 g/day of a prescription EPA drug) reported fewer cardiovascular events but more hospitalisations for atrial fibrillation or flutter, and the STRENGTH trial (4 g/day of an EPA and DHA formulation) found no difference. Those products and doses differ from over-the-counter fish oil.*

Reviews found no or very little effect of omega-3 on cognitive decline in older adults, and a small average effect on depressive symptoms in trials, mainly with EPA-dominant products. Trials have also linked omega-3 supplements to a higher risk of atrial fibrillation, larger at doses above 1 g/day, and omega-3 can interact with blood thinners. This page describes studies of omega-3, not of this product.*
