Cooper Complete Advanced Omega-3
Sports Research Omega-3 Fish Oil
You've heard the buzz about omega-3 fish oil, but you might still be a little confused about what it does.
Omega-3 is a type of fatty acid that's essential for your body to function properly. Omega-3 is great for heart health, brain health, and immune health.
But here's the thing: there are many fish in the sea, but there's only one triple strength Omega 3 from Sports Research for adults. 3x the EPA / DHA in one softgel. What if we told you that some fish oil brands sell a lower quality of their fish oil to justify you taking 2 or 3 pills a day, instead of one? It's true. Then what if we told you we pack an ultra-concentrated dose that delivers 3x the amount of EPA and DHA in one softgel? Guess what? Also true!
ULTIMATE QUALITY: 1) 3rd Party Verified. 2) MSC Certified Sustainable & Traceable.3) Our 10-step refinement process. And 4) 100% sourced from natural Alaskan Pollock. That's our Omega 3 fish oil pills. Just ask the International Fish Oil Standards Council (IFOS), which rates our Omega 3 Fish Oil 5 stars. Quality anyone? Yes please.

Top 10 Reasons to Give Your Kids Omega-3
Top 10 Reasons to Give Your Kids Omega-3
1. Omega-3s support brain growth and brain function
The brain grows at its greatest rate from birth up until about 2 years old, though development continues throughout childhood and adolescence. Over 60% of the brain is made up of fat and the Omega-3 fatty acid DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) makes up around 10-15% of this. DHA is necessary for the development of the sensory, perceptual, cognitive, and motor neural (nerve) systems during the brain growth spurt. The DHA-rich parts of the brain are thought to be responsible for activities such as planning, problem solving, and focused attention.12
DHA in particular is recognized as essential for normal brain function. It helps to improve membrane fluidity, which means that nerve impulses, or messages, are transmitted more effectively. In animals, low brain DHA results in changes in behaviour and is associated with learning problems and memory deficits. In humans, studies indicate that DHA supports normal IQ and preserves learning and memory.
A review of 7 different studies which reported on the results of DHA supplementation on school performance, found that 5 of the studies showed DHA improved school performance, including learning ability, reading and spelling.3
2. Omega-3s may improve reading and maths skills
Researchers at Oxford University studied children given 600mg omega-3 daily for 4 months. The results of this study, called the DOLAB study, showed that children in the bottom 20% for literacy boosted their reading age by 3 weeks more than the placebo group and those in the bottom 10%, by 1.9 months. Though more research is necessary to confirm or rule out these findings, the results indicate that omega-3 may be particularly helpful for those children with the poorest reading skills who are underperforming.4
In another study in Bradford, where pupils were given omega-3 fish oil on a daily basis, this resulted in 81% of pupils showing an improvement in reading, 67% in writing and 74% in Maths.
3. Omega-3s may improve children's sleep
Most parents are on a quest for a good night’s sleep for their children! The DOLAB study also investigated whether omega-3 supplementation could have a beneficial effect on sleep. The results showed that poor sleep is significantly associated with lower blood levels of DHA, and that DHA supplementation led to a reduction in the number of night-time disturbances, as well as 58 minutes more sleep per night on average!5
4. Omega-3s for depression in children
There are several studies demonstrating the effectiveness of omega-3s for depression in adults, but depression in children is actually becoming more common too. A controlled, double-blind pilot study in Israel looked at the effects of an over-the-counter omega-3 supplement in children aged 6-12 with major depression. The results were fantastic, with the majority of the children taking the omega-3 supplement having 50% fewer symptoms at the end of the trial and several children going into complete remission. The results showed that the majority of the children taking the omega-3 supplement had 50% fewer symptoms at the end of the trial and several children went into complete remission.6
A further study specified that supplementation of at least 60mg per day of EPA and 1560mg of DHA for 6 weeks significantly improved global functioning and reduced symptoms of mania & depression in patients with juvenile bipolar disorder.19
5. Omega-3s for ADHD
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder. Standard treatment with stimulants can have severe side effects and intolerance and so the demand for alternative treatments is high. Research has shown that lower levels of omega-3 are found in ADHD patients’ blood when compared to those without ADHD.
There have been numerous studies on fatty acid status in children with ADHD7,8, with historically some inconsistent findings over their effectiveness in the management of the condition. However, an article published in 2019 concluded, after looking at the available data & research, that combined doses of EPA & DHA equal to or above 750mg per day over 12 weeks have shown significant improvements of symptoms of ADHD.20
Furthermore, it is important here to consider maternal fatty acid status prenatally, as this also has been shown to affect the outcome of ADHD & other neurological disorders in offspring.21
There have been lots of studies on the effects of omega-3 on ADHD but the results have been inconsistent. An article just last year reviewed a range of studies carried out between 2000 and 2015 and found that whilst the results were sometimes inconsistent, overall, showed that there is evidence that omega-3 intake can benefit those with ADHD.7,8
6. Omega-3s improve learning and behaviour in developmental coordination disorder
The Oxford-Durham study was an exciting study which looked at the effects of omega-3 supplementation on children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD). At the end of the trial, the results showed that there was a significant improvement in reading, spelling and behaviour in those who had taken omega-3 supplements, and the authors concluded that omega-3 is a safe and efficacious treatment option for children with developmental coordination disorder.9
7. Early omega-3 exposure may reduce incidence of children’s allergies
A recent 2017 article reported that eating oily fish or fish oil supplementation in pregnancy may be a strategy to prevent infant and childhood allergic disease, whilst a study in infants from birth to 6 months found that omega-3s were able to modify markers of immunity and potentially be protective against allergies.10, 11
In addition, Bisgaard et al. reported a significantly reduced incidence of persistent wheeze or asthma at ages 3 to 5 years in children whose mothers took fish oil during pregnancy.12
This indicates that consumption of omega-3 during pregnancy by the mothers or intake of omega-3 in infancy may be able to help reduce the incidence of allergic diseases, including asthma.
8. Omega-3s may reduce incidence of respiratory illness and diarrhoea in infants
Omega-3 fatty acids may have a beneficial effect on the immune system, as discussed above, and this may help to reduce the frequency of common infant illnesses. One study looked at the incidence of respiratory illnesses (such as bronchitis, bronchiolitis, cough, croup) and diarrhoea in infants fed with formula supplemented with omega-3 fatty acid DHA, versus infants fed on formula with no added DHA. The results found that the number of episodes of respiratory illness and diarrhoea in the first 12 months of life was significantly reduced in the infants fed the DHA-enriched formula.13
9. Omega-3s may reduce insulin resistance in obese children
In a study on obese children and adolescents, it was found that omega-3 fatty acid supplementation was able to significantly reduce glucose (blood sugar) and insulin (the hormone that is secreted when blood sugar levels increase) concentrations, as well as decrease triglyceride concentrations - triglycerides being the main components of body fat. These results suggest that omega-3s may be very useful as a supportive therapy for obese children and adolescents with insulin resistance.14
10. Omega-3s may help to support healthy bones
And finally, you may want to consider the impact of omega-3s on bone health in growing children. The link between omega-3s and bone health is less well known but research in this area has accelerated in recent years. Research has mainly focused on the value of dietary omega-3s to protect against bone loss in older adults, yet is likely relevant at any age, and certainly worth considering as children move through different stages of accelerated bone growth during childhood and adolescence. Research has shown that omega-3s may help to support osteoblasts – highly relevant for growing children since these are the cells that build healthy bone. Omega-3s also help to keep inflammation in check, which is also great news for building healthy bones since excessive inflammation activates osteoclasts – the cells that break bone down.15-17 Another possible mechanism by which omega-3s may help to support healthy bones is via supporting calcium absorption – an essential mineral needed for healthy bone structure.18

Cooper Complete Advanced Omega-3
Get FREE SHIPPING on subscription orders of 2 or more bottles!
Advanced Omega 3 Supplement contains 720 mg EPA, 480 mg DHA, and 200 mg other omega-3 fatty acids in each two softgel serving. Omega 3 supplementation supports heart health, cognition, immune and inflammatory health.†
What It Is
Cooper Complete Omega-3 Fatty Acids aid heart and brain health, helping support healthy heart rhythm, lower triglycerides, and normal brain function†.
Omega-3 also has been shown to help reduce symptoms of inflammatory conditions such as Eczema, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and joint inflammation†.
Unlike some Omega-3 fish oils, Cooper Complete is burp-free with no fishy taste. Omega-3 supplements from fish oil are most commonly in the ethyl ester form. The fish oil in Cooper Complete Advanced Omega-3 supplement is in the re-esterified triglyceride (rTG) form as studies have shown triglyceride oils are better absorbed by the body, especially when taken on an empty stomach. Chemically, triglycerides are made of three fatty acids connected to a glycerol backbone. To put it in simple terms, triglycerides are the omega-3 fats found naturally in animal and plant species, including fish. Ethyl esters, on the other hand, are made of one fatty acid attached to an ethanol molecule. Unlike triglycerides, ethyl esters are not found in nature and therefore, must be created chemically. How to Use: As a dietary supplement, take two (2) softgels daily with a meal or as directed by your health care professional. Each bottle contains 30 servings.
How It Helps
Omega-3 supplements and the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosapentaenoic (DHA) are some of the most studied nutrients in the world, with more than 27,000 published studies on their benefits. Heart Health: Omega-3s support healthy heart rhythm and decrease the risk of abnormal heartbeats, called arrhythmia, which can lead to sudden death.
Research published in the International Journal for Vitamin and Nutrition Research found that participants who consumed 760 mg EPA and 440 mg DHA per day for 12 weeks reduced triglycerides by 23 percent.†
Omega-3 fatty acids slow atherosclerosis, a disease characterized by a fatty buildup of plaque in the arteries.
Omega-3 fatty acids support healthy blood pressure†. Brain Health: Omega-3 fatty acids are also good for brain health and cognition.
The Omega-3 fatty acid subcommittee, assembled by the Committee on Research on Psychiatric Treatments of the American Psychiatric Association (APA) recommends adults eat fish two or more times per week, and patients with mood, impulse control or psychotic disorders consume one gram (1,000 milligrams) EPA + DHA (combined) per day. Inflammatory Health: Omega-3 has been shown to reduce inflammatory conditions such as: Autoimmune diseases such as Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
Rosacea, Psoriasis, or Eczema

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to refrigerate the Omega-3 supplement once I have opened the bottle? No, there is no need to refrigerate this product. Once you buy omega-3 supplements, whether you refrigerate or not, keep the bottle closed tightly, and store it out of direct sunlight and away from humid and warm environments. What are EPA and DHA and ALA EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil are vital nutrients for humans. They naturally occur in fish and seafood and work together in the human body. ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) is an omega-3 fat found in plants, (e.g. walnuts and flax). ALA does not perform the same biological functions as EPA and DHA. Research indicates it converts poorly (about 5% to EPA and less than 1% to DHA) and is not a reliable source of EPA and DHA. I’ve heard that omega-3 can come in several different forms. What form is Cooper Complete Advanced Omega-3? Cooper Complete Advanced Omega-3 consists of concentrated fish oil in the re-esterified triglyceride (rTG) form for optimal absorption. I am allergic to fish. Is it OK for me to take this product? No. You should not take Advanced Omega-3 supplements if you are allergic to fish. I already eat a lot of fish. Should I take this omega-3 supplement? If you eat four or more servings of fatty types of fish per week – such as salmon, trout, sardines or mackerel – you may not need additional omega-3 in your diet. Is it safe to consume Cooper Complete Advanced Omega-3 supplements if I suffer from atrial fibrillation? Yes. Studies indicate that omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death by stabilizing the rhythm of the heart.
