1 teaspoon (medium) of Ocean Plus fish oil (5 g) has 41 calories. That works out to 900 calories per 100 g. It contains 0 g of carbs, 0 g of protein, 4.5 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its glycemic index is 0 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Ocean Plus fish oil is a fish-derived oil sold as a dietary supplement. Its clear, slightly viscous liquid form is different from a general-purpose cooking oil; its nutritional character comes from omega-3 fats, including EPA and DHA.
People commonly take fish oil by the spoonful, often alongside a meal, rather than using it to cook. The flavour can be distinctly fishy, so follow the product label for serving instructions and storage. It is essentially all fat, with no protein or carbohydrates. For someone who rarely eats oily fish, it can be a convenient way to add EPA and DHA to their routine; if you prefer a milder taste, taking it with food may make it easier to fit into a meal.

High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Low
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Ocean Plus fish oil provides the omega-3 fats EPA and DHA, which support normal heart and brain function. It is a dietary source of these fats, not a treatment for a medical condition.
Use the serving recommended in the Ocean Plus fish oil directions rather than guessing from the spoon size. The amount of EPA and DHA per serving matters, and the total oil weight does not tell you that amount.
Yes, taking Ocean Plus fish oil with a meal may make it easier on your stomach. Food can also reduce fishy burps or an unpleasant aftertaste for some people.
There is no special time of day that makes Ocean Plus fish oil work better for everyone. Taking it with a meal you regularly eat can make it easier to remember and may reduce stomach discomfort.
Ocean Plus fish oil can cause fishy burps, heartburn, nausea, or loose stools in some people. Taking it with food may help; stop using it and seek medical advice if symptoms are severe or persistent.
It is better not to use Ocean Plus fish oil for high-heat cooking. Heating can damage the oil and affect its taste; if you use it in food, add it after cooking rather than frying or baking with it.
Keep Ocean Plus fish oil tightly closed in a cool, dark place, and refrigerate it if the product directions call for it. Discard it if it develops a strongly rancid smell or taste.
Ask your healthcare professional before combining Ocean Plus fish oil with a blood thinner. Omega-3 supplements, particularly at higher amounts, may affect bleeding risk; do not change your prescribed medication on your own.
No, Ocean Plus fish oil is not the same as cod liver oil. Cod liver oil comes from the liver and can contain vitamins A and D, so its vitamin content and suitability are different.
Ocean Plus fish oil should not be relied on to treat high triglycerides. The effects seen with omega-3 depend on the amount and formulation, and prescription-level treatment is different from an ordinary supplement serving.
