Thorne Super EPA is the fish oil for athletes who face drug testing. It is NSF Certified for Sport, the only product on this list with that mark, and Thorne says it tests each ingredient for identity, purity and potency, including heavy metals and pesticides, up to the expiration date. Each gelcap provides 425 mg of EPA and 270 mg of DHA, and the label suggests one gelcap two to three times a day. The 90 gelcap bottle costs $45, or $0.50 per gelcap, so the daily cost runs $1.00 to $1.50 at the suggested use, and the cost per 1,000 mg of EPA and DHA is about $0.72. That is well above NOW or Life Extension for a similar dose. The product is gluten, dairy and soy free, uses a bovine gelatin shell, and Thorne accepts FSA and HSA funds through Truemed. For buyers who do not need the sport certification, cheaper options here offer more omega-3 per dollar.
