Overview

NOW Foods Super Omega 3-6-9 combines three premium oil sources: fish oil (EPA/DHA), borage oil (GLA), and organic flaxseed oil (ALA) for a comprehensive essential fatty acid supplement. While most people get enough omega-6 from diet, the GLA from borage oil is a specific anti-inflammatory omega-6 that most people are deficient in. The ALA from flaxseed provides plant-based omega-3. This combination covers all three essential fatty acid families in a single softgel.
