Description
Contrary to popular belief – and fad diets – fats are integral factors in the maintenance of health. Many diets lack essential fatty acids (EFAs), polyunsaturated fats with countless benefits for the cardiovascular, nervous, and musculoskeletal systems, as well as hormone production and cellular repair. They are “essential” because, although the body cannot make them, they are vital to health.
The most important EFAs are omega-3 and omega-6. The ideal omega-3 to omega-6 ratio is 1:4, but typical North American diets provide a 1:20 ratio, or even 1:30. Omega-6s generate inflammation, while omega-3s reduce it. Natural Factors RxOmega-3 products provide high levels of the omega-3s EPA and DHA to balance dietary intake.
The fish oils are pharmaceutical grade and non-GMO. Only the highest quality cold-water sources are used, and are guaranteed to be free from environmental pollutants, heavy metals, pesticides, and other harmful compounds.
The easy to swallow mini gels are 45% smaller than standard softgels, while still providing 500 mg of combined EPA/DHA, one of the highest potencies available in a mini gel. The Enteripure enteric softgels dissolve in the intestines, ensuring optimal absorption and no fishy aftertaste. Rather than a traditional chemical enteric coating, Enteripure employs the latest technology to incorporate the plant sourced enteric ingredients into the softgel casing itself.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Natural Factors RxOmega-3 Mini Gels, and what does each capsule contain?
Natural Factors RxOmega-3 Mini Gels is a pharmaceutical-grade omega-3 fish oil supplement providing 530 mg of EPA and DHA combined per mini softgel capsule — 356 mg of EPA and 144 mg of DHA — derived from 625 mg of molecularly distilled fish oil from cold-water fish. The mini softgels are 45% smaller than standard omega-3 softgels, making them significantly easier to swallow for those who have difficulty with full-size capsules. Each capsule uses the patent-pending Enteripure enteric softgel casing, which is designed to dissolve in the intestine rather than the stomach. This targeted intestinal delivery serves two functions: it enhances omega-3 absorption and eliminates the fishy taste and burping that commonly follow standard fish oil capsules. The fish oil is non-GMO and purified by molecular distillation to remove environmental pollutants, heavy metals, pesticides, and other harmful compounds. It is preserved with natural vitamin E (tocopherols).
What are the health benefits of EPA and DHA, and why are these specific doses important?
EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are the two clinically active omega-3 fatty acids. They are essential fats the human body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts and must obtain from diet or supplementation. EPA has the strongest evidence for reducing serum triglycerides, lowering inflammatory markers, supporting platelet function, and reducing cardiovascular risk. DHA is the dominant structural fat in brain cell membranes and retinal photoreceptors, making it essential for cognitive function, memory, visual acuity, and neural development — particularly in infants and growing children. Together, EPA and DHA reduce inflammation systemically, support mental health outcomes, and maintain blood pressure within healthy ranges. Health Canada and international dietary guideline bodies generally recommend a combined daily EPA and DHA intake of 500 mg for general cardiovascular maintenance, and up to 2,000 to 4,000 mg for individuals seeking active triglyceride reduction or anti-inflammatory support — dosage ranges that can be achieved with 2 to 6 of these mini gels per day.
Who should take RxOmega-3 Mini Gels, and what are the recommended doses?
RxOmega-3 Mini Gels are appropriate for children from age 1 to adults. The recommended daily doses are: children 1 to 8 years, 2 to 3 capsules; adolescents 9 to 18 years, 2 to 4 capsules; adults for general health, 2 to 6 capsules; adults specifically targeting triglyceride reduction or cardiovascular support, 6 capsules daily. The mini capsule size makes it practical for children and for adults who struggle with standard fish oil capsules. The Enteripure enteric coating reduces the fishy reflux that often causes people to stop taking fish oil, improving long-term compliance. People taking blood-thinning medications should consult a physician before use, as high doses of omega-3 can potentiate anticoagulant effects. The product should be stored refrigerated after opening to preserve freshness and potency.
How does RxOmega-3 Mini Gels compare to standard fish oil softgels and other omega-3 products?
Standard fish oil softgels are typically 1,000 mg or larger in volume, with EPA and DHA concentrations ranging from 180 mg EPA and 120 mg DHA (a 30% concentration common in mass-market products) to 500 mg combined (50%). RxOmega-3 delivers 530 mg EPA and DHA from 625 mg of fish oil — approximately 85% omega-3 concentration, which is considered pharmaceutical grade and is significantly higher than most retail omega-3 products. The Enteripure enteric capsule is a meaningful differentiator because standard softgel fish oil products dissolve in the stomach, and the resulting omega-3 exposure to gastric acid contributes to fishy burping and reduced absorption efficiency. The mini capsule form factor at 45% smaller than standard softgels is unusual in the pharmaceutical-grade omega-3 category, where most high-concentration products use standard or larger capsule sizes. Natural Factors' ISURA third-party testing and four-round quality verification — double the industry standard — confirm the labeled EPA and DHA concentrations are present and that the oil is free from the contaminants that affect fish-derived products, including mercury, PCBs, and dioxins.
What is Natural Factors, and is it a trustworthy supplement brand?
Natural Factors is a Canadian-owned supplement manufacturer founded in 1948 and headquartered in Coquitlam, British Columbia. One of North America's largest supplement makers, it operates over 1,000 acres of certified organic farmland in BC's Okanagan Valley and manufactures in-house at Health Canada-licensed, FDA-inspected facilities. Every product is third-party tested through ISURA for over 800 contaminants including pesticides and heavy metals. Natural Factors is also B Corp certified, meeting rigorous environmental and social standards.
What is Natural Factors and is it a reliable Canadian supplement brand?
Natural Factors is one of Canada's largest supplement manufacturers, founded in 1955 by Jack and Rona Katz in British Columbia and still 100% Canadian family-owned. The company controls every production stage from raw material sourcing to finished product. Its facility holds TGA certification from Australia's Therapeutic Goods Administration, one of the world's strictest supplement manufacturing standards. All products are ISURA certified — independently tested for 800+ contaminants including pesticides and heavy metals — and Natural Factors conducts four rounds of product testing, double the industry average of two.
What sets Natural Factors apart from other supplement brands?
Natural Factors' most distinctive quality is vertical integration: the company grows its own raw herbs on 1,000+ acres of certified organic farmland in BC's Okanagan Valley, then processes and manufactures in-house. Most supplement brands source raw materials from external suppliers with no direct agricultural control. Natural Factors also uses ISURA third-party testing, a Canadian standard that screens for over 800 contaminants, well beyond typical heavy-metal panels. B Corp certification further reflects a documented commitment to environmental and social accountability, not just a marketing claim.
What makes Natural Factors different from other Canadian supplement manufacturers?
Natural Factors holds TGA certification from Australia's Therapeutic Goods Administration — one of the world's most rigorous pharmaceutical manufacturing standards, rarely earned by Canadian brands and far exceeding most North American certification requirements. Its ISURA testing program screens every product for 800+ contaminants, and it conducts four rounds of quality testing per product versus the industry standard of two. The company also operates its own farm in the Okanagan Valley for select botanical ingredients — a level of vertical integration uncommon among supplement manufacturers — and has been family-owned for over 70 years.
