I had been taking ON Fish Oil for over a year and decided to switch things up. I landed a Job at GNC a few months back and I always wanted to try this one. Before you get any thoughts, I assure you this review is 100% unbiased as I despise several GNC products just as I love several of them.

Pretty standard stuff here, not going to write a book today but a brief review on Fish Oil IS on it's way.
Most people know there are benefits of supplementing Fish Oil. Problem is, most just don't know HOW MANY benefits there are. Heart health, brain health, skin health, Joint support, Inflammation REDuction, Fat loss aide, Lowers cholesterol, Maintenance of healthy blood pressure, Lowers Triglyceride levels, Hormone support, ect ect. Some of these benefits, of course, don't go on un-argued but that's for you to decide for yourself.

Value: 8/10
With a gold card, you can get this around 17 bucks after tax (At my store location anyway) and with my employee discount it was only about 14. You only need 1 a day and 2 at the very most (2 is not recommended on the label) and it comes in 60 and 120 count bottles. 14 bucks for 60 days of Fish Oil is a great deal IMO and it's quality.

Effectiveness: 9/10
I went from taking 3 Fish Oil caps (ONs brand) to 1 a day and I can honestly say my joints feel the same if not better. Shoulders always hurt off and on and always will, but they and my elbows seemed to improved a bit. These are high potency and they tell you exactly how much EPA & DHA omega 3s you are getting unlike some who will just put 1,000mg of Fish Oil as a Proprietary blend and list 300mg total Omega 3s *cough* Optimum nutrition, *cough*.
EPA- 647mg
DHA- 253mg
Also, these soft gels are Enteric Coated so you will not get the fishy after burps with regular coated Fish Oils.

Overall: 9/10
I'm on my second bottle and I really like this stuff. I will continue to buy and take year-round. I just take 1 with my breakfast, simple as that. If you aren't taking Fish Oil, you should be, rather it's this particular one or not. It is definitely one of the Essentials in anyone's-male or female- supplement arsenal.

Manimal gives another thumbs up.

Let me begin by saying I am not a big fan of most GNC products. Typically I find them overpriced and not as effective as the competitors (e.g., ON, Sci-Fit, etc.) and unless they are on clearance I avoid.

But the Triple Strength Fish Oil was on clearance (and typically is since they overstock the hell out of this product). Each serving gives you 647mg of EPA and 253mg of DHA.

Like with most Fish Oil supplements, you don't really notice a ton of benefits, but this is working behind the scenes for your coronary and brain functions.

Joint health improved and overall sustained energy throughout the day was consistent.

Recommended if you can pick some up, but only at clearance prices.

Hi, I'm a 30 year old female. I'm a hockey player, middle distance runner and I have been strength training for 6 years.

What prompted you to write this review? The benefits of fish oil are lost on a lot of people, so I figured I'd help the cause.

What other similar products have you used and how do they compare? Nordic Naturals + D3 + Biotest's FlameOut - I think both were better for different reasons, but this product got the job done.

How long have you taken this product? I completed one bottle about 6 months ago.

What was your diet/exercise routine like before/after/during your use of the product? I was in my hockey off-season, so I was lifting with pretty high volume: Deadlifts, Cleans, Squats, presses - pretty compound stuff, lots of reps. Diet was on par for just keep my strength up and replenishing glycogen. I was taking BCAAs to alleviate soreness and muscle loss during cardio sessions. I was sleeping a little less.

Were the results what you had expected? The benefits of fish oil are vague for people, I think. Some people want to take it because someone told them they'd lose weight. Other people take it because it's like an unspoken rule. When I started, I guess I didn't have any expectations, but I didn't realize how bad I needed it until I forgot to take it during a whole weekend. I had 3 pretty hard days in a row and my joints and insides literally felt inflamed and irritated. I felt like they were really cranky and painful. It was really weird. When I stopped to think about it, I realized I hadn't been taking the fish oil. Since then, I will never be without it? My skin has always been pretty smooth and clear and my hair is decent, so I didn't notice anything here. I think it's a supplement that you may not appreciate until you go without it.

How many pounds of muscle/fat did you gain/lose? I wasn't tracking at the time but I did feel like I was slightly more vascular and leaner.

The problem with fish oil always tends to be that you have to take a to get 2 to 3 grams. The bottles are seriously deceptive to people who don't understand that when it says 6000mg (I'm exaggerating, of course) that it's not of OMEGA-3, it's whatever is in the bottle total. So, you more than likely have to take 8-10 of them per day.
Not cost effective.

For that reason, I think that the GNC product is pretty good. It does what a fish oil is meant to do and you don't have to take ton of them.

I think that FlameOut is way better because it has other oils in it, but for the basic needs of an athlete, this product suffices and it's not hard to take. I could spend $9 on "Sundown Naturals" but I don't want to swallow 10 fish oil pills per day, you know?

Value is horrible for fish oil capsules but it is intensely filtered. I never got the common "fish oil burps" while stacking this in and I feel like I actually got some joint relief.

Fish oil is not only good for your heart but also is supposed to help prevent joint inflammation and should be a staple for every lifter. I paid 35 bucks for 50 days on fish oil which is very expensive compared to costco or something.

Overall: If you can't stand those fishy burps, pop into gnc and get some of this, great stuff

So a few months ago I started taking fish oil as recommended by one of my buddies who said it helped with his knee problem. I was having a little shoulder problem, nothing major but decided to give it a try.


Content – 9/10

So this is fish oil, there are so many benefits here anyone who does a quick google search could write a book haha. The GNC box is full of fun facts about it: May reduct the risk of coronary heart disease, helps maintain healthy cholesterol and blood pressure, and the most important fact to me – promotes joint, brain and skin health. This has 900mg total omega-3 fatty acids in one capsule: 647mg coming from EPA, and 253mg coming from DHA.


Effectiveness – 8/10

So I thought this was pretty helpful. My joints def felt a little bit better. This isn’t vicodin, if your joints are messed up don’t look to this for help. This helps for those little joint aches we all get from lifting. Benching and dips are very hard on your shoulders, I def saw an improvement which was great.


Value – 7/10

So the value isn’t too bad. At GNC it runs for $21.99 and with a Gold Card its $17.59 for 60 servings as one serving is 1 capsule. I didn’t rate the value higher cause you could go to Sam’s Club and grab a bottle of their Omega 3,6,9 that has 162 servings in it for less money and a heck of a lot more servings.


Overall – 8/10

Overall this is a good product, and it works, but so does just about every other fish oil supplement that I have tried. There are cheaper less expensive versions of this out there, maybe you have to take two caps but who really cares? For these reasons this is why idk if I would recommend this product to other people….it works, but there are other fish oils where you will get a much better bang for your buck.

i've taken this in the past and after switching to ON's Fish Oil for quite some time, i decided to go back to the GNC brand.

what are the benefits of taking Fish Oil? well to keep it short and simple: Supports joint, eye, brain and skin health. May reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, maintain healthy cholesterol and blood pressure levels. Natural Anti-inflammatory.

Ingredients: per one(1) soft gel - 900 mg total Omega-3 fatty acids. Calories 15, Total from fat 1.5g, EPA 647mg, DHA 253mg.

the most important thing to consider when trying to find a high quality Fish Oil is make sure that it's Purified (mercury and lead free) and that it's not a proprietary of just "fish oil", you want to make sure you get specific amounts of EPA and DHA.

Dosage/Taste/Smell: just 1 soft gel daily with a meal (preferably the largest). these don't have much of a taste from them, although everyonce in a while i'll get a fishy burb. one way to solve a fishy burp is to put them in the freezer. faint smell, not that real "fishy" smell you can encounter with other bad Fish Oils on the market.

Effectivenss: the main two positive results i received from this is the improvement in my joint health. i've always had issues with my left knee and everyonce in a while i'll get a sharp shoulder pain when lifting. did this compeletly stop my symptoms? no, but it help reduce them greatly. second thing i noticed from this was the improvement in my skin complexion and clarity. i might not of noticed all of the other benefits of the Fish Oil just yet, but i know it's working slowly but surely.

Value: i actually got lucky and received a free 120 count bottle from my sister. just taking 1 soft gel a day it will last me 4 months, which is awesome. the average price for this with a Gold Card is around $31.99, not too bad, but i would like to see it a few bucks cheaper.

Overall: very good supplement that should be added to every stack regardless of age or goal. there are many health benefits to Fish Oil and will help with regular maintaince of your body. easy to take at just 1 soft gel a day, last for 4 months and a good way to get your Omega 3's in; especially if you dont like fish/sea food like myself.

This is some good fish! You benefit so much off of Fish Oil, from reading reviews under neath me I believe they were all spot on , on the benefits so I dont think I need to educate others on the benefits of Fish Oil. The benefits have been discussed already below in other reviews.
But I used to take the Walmart Fish Oil and I had to take 3 walmart Fish Oil pills to get around the same omega 3's as this GNC Triple Strength Fish Oil. I like only having to take 1 pill instead of 3 or more... Also another benefit is that I never had the fishy burps unlike the Walmart ones. I got 60 pills for around $20. I only take 1 pill a day so basically i got 2 months worth, which isn't too bad imo.
really couldnt tell ya if i felt any different with this fish and the walmart fish. What really got me liking this is the 1 pill and no fish burps. Good stuff check it out ladies n gents.

This stuff is top notch as far as Fish Oil goes. I took 1-2 after every meal and never once did I get the Sushi Burps. And that’s a plus! Otherwise it’s hard to judge Fish Oil. It's great for heart health, joints and inflammation. But how do you gauge that?

The down side is that, like many GNC products, these are overpriced. Even with BOGO half off, these really aren't cost effective. Sure, they are potent but you could just get a much cheaper brand and take several pills.

Price notwithstanding, you can always trust GNC products to be high quality. If the peace of mind is worth the extra cost, then this is a great pick-up for you. If budget is an issue, then just wait for GNC to email you some $10 coupons and search elsewhere in the meantime.

Heres a review on a STAPLE to any stack. I tried the Wal-Mart brand Fish Oil before this and this is by far the better of the 2.

Effectiveness 8/10- It seemed that my skin was alittle cleaner, I just feel all around better.

Dosing-9/10 It says to take 1 a day but I am taking 1 in the am and 1 before bed(After a certain post I read earlier today I will definatley be upping the dosage)

Taste-8/10 I very rarely had fish burps but when I did it went away pretty fast.

Value- 9/10 IF you can get this on the BOGO 50% off its a pretty good deal.

Ingredients-9/10 Its pretty cut and dry here. Only thing that could be better is more than 900mg per capsule.

Overall-8/10 Im sure there are better sources out there for Fish Oil(besides actual fish lol)But so far I have been satisfied and would recommend it to anyone.

I absolutely love this product. I have taken different Fish Oil's in the past and I would get gross fishy burps and get the occasional GI problem. I just finished this bottle, taking two capsules a day (1 am, 1 pm).

I did not get any fishy burps with this, no GI problems, and I actually noticed a difference in my body! In the past I have used the cheapest Fish Oil I could find at wal-mart and really felt no benefit. It was like I was just wasting time and money.

I am not going to claim that this product changed my life, or that I feel sooo much better after taking it. But what I can claim is that my joints feel better. I have always had knees that sort of ached and needed to be Cracked. I always felt the need to Crack my knuckles. Those pains and urges have gone down significantly.

Price always seems to be the issue with GNC products. This product is very often on sale or buy one get one 1/2. With the BOGO 1/2 O sale plus my gold card these were $24 each.... not bad!
