The Solgar Full Spectrum Omega Salmon Oil is a dietary supplement in soft capsules, with 2400mg of fish oil from North Sea salmon per daily dose of two capsules. Unlike classic omega 3 formulations, the formula provides a complete spectrum of omega fatty acids: 500mg total omega 3, 130mg omega 5 and 7, 70mg omega 6 and 420mg omega 9, in the form of natural triglycerides. It also contains 5μg of vitamin D3 and 20μg of astaxanthin from Haematococcus algae. The package contains 120 soft capsules.
It is aimed at people who do not eat fatty fish twice a week and want a source of omega that resembles the fish itself, not an isolated concentrate. It is also an option for those looking for a sustainable fishing product, free of environmental pollutants, and for those who want vitamin D3 in the same capsule.
Omega 3s are available on the market in two main chemical forms: as ethyl esters, which result from the concentration process, and as triglycerides, i.e., in the form they are in inside the fish. In the natural triglyceride, three fatty acids are bound to a glycerol molecule, just as the digestive system encounters them when we eat salmon. Solgar chooses the triglyceride form here and does not concentrate the oil, so the EPA and DHA dose per capsule is more moderate than in a high-concentration formulation, but the profile is more complete.
This complete profile is the product's distinctiveness. In addition to EPA and DHA, salmon oil brings DPA, omega 7 like palmitelaidic acid, omega 9 like oleic acid, as well as omega 5. At the same time, the oil is stabilized with natural antioxidants, mixed tocopherols and extracts of rosemary, lemon balm and thyme, so that it does not oxidize, while astaxanthin comes from the Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae oil. Astaxanthin is a carotenoid pigment that is extensively researched, but does not have an approved health claim.
According to the product presentation by Solgar, the formulation is positioned around three axes:
The above statements are attributed to the producer. Astaxanthin does not have an approved health claim from the EFSA and its role remains a subject of research, while the claim for brain and vision is not covered by the DHA dose of this formula.
It suits people who rarely eat fatty fish and want to cover their omegas with a supplement with a profile close to food. It suits those who are bothered by the fish aftertaste of classic fish oils, as the formulation is declared without it. It suits adults who want both omegas and vitamin D3 in one intake, especially in the months with little sunshine. It also suits people who care about the origin of the raw material and the purification process from heavy metals and PCBs.
The product is a dietary supplement and does not replace medical diagnosis or medication.

Fish oils can enhance the action of anticoagulant drugs, so if you are on such treatment, consult your doctor first. The same applies in pregnancy, lactation or if you have an existing health condition. Keep the product in a cool and dry place, away from children.
It is not concentrated oil. It provides omega 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9 together, in the form of natural triglycerides, as they are in salmon.
Two capsules provide 200mg EPA and 215mg DHA, i.e., 415mg in total.
Not with this dose. The approved claim for DHA for brain and vision presupposes 250mg DHA daily and the formula provides 215mg.
The producer states that the formulation does not leave a fish aftertaste. Taking it with meals helps further.
The oil undergoes a special purification process to remove heavy metals, PCBs and other environmental pollutants.
No. The oil comes from fish and the capsule shell contains bovine gelatin.
