Product Description
Average daily DHA and EPA intake in the U.S. runs around 90mg, well below the 500mg minimum most researchers recommend, and that gap matters for anyone relying on sharp focus and quick decision-making during training and competition. Your body makes very little DHA or EPA on its own, so nearly all of it has to come from diet or supplementation.
Thorne's Advanced DHA is built to help meet that shortfall directly, delivering 650mg of DHA and 200mg of EPA per serving in the triglyceride form, the same way DHA occurs naturally in the body.
Supports brain and nerve function – DHA concentrates in the brain and throughout the central nervous system more than almost any other fatty acid, playing a structural role in how nerve cells communicate.
Supports eye health and cardiovascular function – Beyond the brain, DHA and EPA both contribute to retinal health and normal heart and blood vessel function.
Delivered in the natural triglyceride form – This is the form DHA takes naturally in the body, unlike the ethyl ester form found in some less expensive fish oil supplements.
DHA is concentrated in the frontal and prefrontal lobes of the brain, regions tied to focus, problem-solving, and mood regulation. EPA rounds out the profile with its own role in cardiovascular and inflammatory balance. Rosemary extract, mint flavor, and mixed tocopherols are included specifically to cut down on the fishy aftertaste some people get from fish oil, and the product is tested for more than 250 environmental contaminants, including heavy metals, pesticides, dioxins, and PCBs.
How to Use Thorne Advanced DHA
Dose: Take two gelcaps daily, or as recommended by your health-care practitioner.
This product contains ingredients derived from fish and shellfish, so avoid it if you have a fish or shellfish allergy. The gelcap itself is made from bovine gelatin, so it's not a fit if you're vegetarian or vegan. Consult your health-care practitioner before use if pregnant.

Thorne Advanced DHA FAQ's
Everything you need to know about Thorne Advanced DHA.
Endurance training generates real inflammation and oxidative stress, and EPA plays a direct role in managing that inflammatory response as your training volume climbs. DHA's concentration in the brain also supports the focus and decision-making that tend to fade late in long sessions or races, so this formula covers recovery and cognitive demands together, not just general heart health.
Each 2-gelcap serving delivers 650 mg of DHA and 200 mg of EPA, for 960 mg of total omega-3s. That clears the 500 mg minimum most researchers recommend daily, in a formula weighted toward DHA rather than EPA.
This delivers DHA and EPA in triglyceride form, the same structure they naturally take in your body, rather than the ethyl ester form used in some cheaper fish oil products. Your body absorbs the triglyceride form more efficiently, so more of what's on the label actually gets used.
Take two gelcaps daily, ideally with a meal to improve absorption and cut down on aftertaste. Rosemary extract, mint flavor, and mixed tocopherols are built into the formula specifically to reduce the fishy burps common with other fish oil supplements.
No on both counts. The oil comes from anchovy, sardine, squid, herring, and mackerel, and the gelcap is made from bovine gelatin, so this isn't a fit for fish or shellfish allergies, or for vegetarian and vegan diets.
