What it is

Fish oil is a fat that comes from the tissues of oily fish. It is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, specifically EPA and DHA. It is typically extracted and purified from fish like anchovies, sardines, and mackerel.

Why it's used

Fish oil is added to foods to boost their omega-3 fatty acid content. It is often found in fortified foods like snack bars, cereals, and some dairy products. Manufacturers use it to enhance the nutritional profile of products, particularly for consumers seeking to increase their intake of these beneficial fats.

Health notes

Fish oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil are known to support heart and brain health. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated omega-3 fatty acids. While generally considered beneficial, very high intakes of fish oil supplements can sometimes lead to mild side effects like fishy aftertaste or digestive upset.

Allergen info

Fish oil is derived from fish, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
