Why you should consider taking an omega-3 supplement
The main way to take in omega-3 fatty acids from food is by eating fish. The Dutch Health Council recommends eating fish (e.g. salmon, herring, mackerel or sardines) once a week to ensure that you get enough omega-3 fatty acids from your diet. If eating fish is problematic for you, or if you don’t like the taste of fish, an omega-3 supplement, such as Krill Omega-3 Gold or Omega-3 Fish Oil Gold, may be a good solution for you.
