Product Description
EPA and DHA are two high-quality sources of Omega-3 fatty acids required by the body to function at its best. These fats have super anti-inflammatory powers and significantly improve cognitive function due to their anti-oxidative nature and their role in the mitochondrial membrane.
Since the human body cannot produce these fats internally, it must receive them from external consumption. Super EPA will help you balance your Omega-6:Omega-3 ratio (the average American maintains a ratio of about 15:1, despite the recommended, most ideal ratio of 1:1).
If you are looking for an easy way to focus better during tough workouts and in the office, while simultaneously decreasing inflammation in your cells, this supplement is for you! Super EPA also promotes heart, skin, eye and fertility health. Supplementing with these oils is especially important on a vegetarian or vegan diet, as the most common food source is within fish and dairy products. P.S. Thorne has made sure to use only the purest form of EPA and DHA, free of cholesterol, contaminants and heavy metals*.
*Fish and fish oil can be high in mercury and other heavy metals which can have harmful effects on the body over the long term, especially the nervous system.

Thorne Super EPA FAQ's
Everything you need to know before getting started.
Most research supporting anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular benefits uses 1–3 grams of combined EPA+DHA daily. At 813mg total omega-3 per gelcap, two to three gelcaps daily provides 1.6–2.4 grams — a range well within the clinically studied therapeutic window. Higher training volumes and more systemic inflammation may benefit from the higher end of that range.
Fish oil oxidizes — it goes rancid when exposed to heat, light, and air. Oxidized fish oil is less effective, tastes bad (causes "fish burps"), and may actually produce harmful compounds. Beyond oxidation, fish can concentrate environmental contaminants including PCBs and heavy metals. Thorne tests every batch against strict purity standards and sources from sustainably managed cold-water fisheries. Third-party certification provides independent verification that the oil is both potent and clean.
Omega-3s are fat-soluble and are absorbed significantly better when taken with a meal containing dietary fat. The specific time of day matters less than consistency — pick a meal-based routine you'll maintain. Many athletes take one gelcap with breakfast and one with dinner. For three-per-day dosing, adding one post-training works well.
EPA and DHA serve different functions in the body. EPA primarily manages inflammatory signaling — it helps modulate the body's response to physical stress, supports joint and muscle recovery, and promotes cardiovascular health. DHA is primarily structural — it's incorporated into brain tissue, nerve myelin, and cell membranes. Thorne Super EPA's higher EPA concentration (425mg vs. 270mg DHA) makes it specifically well-suited for athletes prioritizing inflammation management and recovery support, without sacrificing meaningful DHA coverage for brain and neural function.
