Omega JYM Omega-3 Fish Oil , 120 Softgels
Product Overview
While several fish oils provide a decent amount of EPA, few omega-3 product comes close to delivering as much DHA per serving as Omega JYM.* That’s unfortunate since DHA, or docosahexaenoic acid, is a critical omega-3 fat. In fact, the proper dose of DHA--in conjunction with EPA--is essential if you want to reap any of the amazing benefits omega-3 fats can deliver.*
Omega-3 fats may help reduce your risk of coronary heart disease when adding regular exercise.* They also support healthy brain and joint function.* But for those who train, nothing is more exciting than current research suggesting fish oil may help spur muscle growth and support fat loss--when the proper dose of DHA is supplied, that is. That proper dose appears to be 1500 mg of DHA per day with an equivalent dose of EPA, or eicosapentaenoic acid.*
The Down-low on DHA
The problem with most fish oil and omega-3 products on the market today is that they grossly underdose DHA, or they keep the dose of DHA proprietary so you don’t know how much you're getting. Omega-3 supplements that don’t list the dose of DHA are problematic because you never know if you’re getting enough of this critical omega-3 fat. Taking an omega-3 supplement that provides a low dose of DHA means that you have to take a handful of capsules to get the proper daily dose.
For example, if a fish oil capsule only delivers 150 mg of DHA, you would need to swallow 10 capsules per day, every day. That's not only a hassle, but it means that you're ingesting an extra 10-12 grams of fat per day, just to get the 1.5 grams (1500 mg) of DHA you really want. Many fish oil/omega-3 products on the market actually require you to consume 12-15 capsules per day to get 1500 mg of DHA!
The Science of Omega JYM
DHA and EPA also directly influence specific processes in the body.* For example, they actually turn on genes that increase fat burning, and turn off genes that promote fat storage!* While the impact on normal inflammation may be one way that omega-3 fats influence muscle growth, more recent data suggests a direct increase in the activation of key molecules involved in the process of muscle protein synthesis (MPS).* When you consume a high protein meal, you'll actually elevate MPS higher when supplementing with a properly dosed fish oil.
To provide such a potent and pure dose of omega-3s, Omega JYM is put through a process called "molecular distillation." This safely separates the DHA and EPA from mercury, PCB, dioxins and other contaminants that may be present in unprocessed fish oil. This not only provides a more refined and powerful fish oil, but also leaves less odor and taste due to less rancidity and oxidation. Perhaps best of all, you won’t have to deal with the dreaded “fish-oil burps” that many experience from taking less processed fish oil.
The bottom line is that Omega JYM is one of the purest and more potent fish oil supplements on the market.* It literally redefines what a proper fish oil product should be.

Ratings & Reviews
At first I wasnt sure about this product or even the brand to be honest. I started running to lose weight and I guess with the running and the impact on my joints I started having pretty severe pain in my knees, ankles, hips and lower back. Even with stretching I couldnt seem to relieve the pain in my hips, knees and ankles. I read one review where someone said it relieved the pain so I figured why not try it for $30. I tried it and from Day 1 my routine never changed, I have had zero pain. Granted, for my lower back I have been stretching every single day and doing stretches for my lower back but now I can run for miles without any pain which is huge. I didnt try any other Omega 3 product before this and I will not try another but this one changed quite a bit for me and ever since I started it back in October I have taken it every day.
what kind of Gelatin is being used in this product?
No bad taste. Dosage is perfect. And after just a few days my joints were noticibly in better shape. Great product
I've been using the full JYM System and support stack for almost 4 years, I highly recommend it based on results. Follow his training programs and diet (website and app) for maximum results.
Best on the market! No nasty Burps
Why is it that nowhere on the label does it say that the fish oil in this product is purified to remove mercury and dioxins? Jim srates in his advertising literature that it gas been "molecularly distilled", but why does it not state that on the product label. That is a very important quality of fish oil. If it really is purified oil then I would think it would state that on the label. This gives me much doubt about the quality of this product.
Best fish oil on the market i won't use anything else!! Thank you jim!
Quality ingredients at the right dosage. Others can't compare.
Love the dosage amount.
Best high quality omegas with the right dosage. If you are sensitive with fish burps keep them refrigerated. Only choice out there!
Is the gelatin Kosher?
This Omega has the highest quality ingredients and therefore it’s potency is noticible after a couple or so weeks of use. The only negative is that there are only 60 servings per container. Although a little pricey, I’d prefer 90 or 120 servings per container.
