Nordic Naturals
1,100 mg EPA+DHA per two lemon-flavored softgels in triglyceride form, with lot-level purity testing; excellent tolerability, but pricier than IFOS-certified rivals.

A plant-based omega-3 from microalgae with 195 mg EPA and 390 mg DHA per two softgels; a clean fish-free option, but you pay more per gram than for fish oil.
