FAQs

Who owns Carlson Labs?

Carlson Labs (J.R. Carlson Laboratories) was founded in 1965 by pharmacist Susan Carlson and remains family-owned. It is female-led by her daughters — President Carilyn Anderson and Vice President Kirsten Carlson — from headquarters in Arlington Heights, Illinois. The company bottles many of its fish oils at Carlson Healthy Oils in Søvik, Norway, near Ålesund, before shipping them to the US for distribution.

How much EPA and DHA is in Carlson The Very Finest Fish Oil?

It depends on the format. The liquid (1 teaspoon / 5 ml) provides 1600 mg total omega-3s as 800 mg EPA, 500 mg DHA and 90 mg DPA. The 700 mg softgels provide 700 mg omega-3s per two softgels: 360 mg EPA and 240 mg DHA. GymStack stocks the lemon liquid 200 ml and lemon/orange 700 mg softgel packs when inventory is available. Check the nutrition panel on your bottle.

Does Carlson liquid fish oil need to be refrigerated?

Yes after opening. Carlson advises refrigerating liquid The Very Finest Fish Oil after opening and using it within 100 days for freshness. Softgels do not need refrigeration; store them cool and dry away from direct sunlight. Unopened bottles should be kept as the label directs and used by the best-before date.

How much omega-3 is in Carlson Maximum Omega 2000?

A two-softgel serving of Maximum Omega 2000 provides 2000 mg total omega-3s, including 1250 mg EPA and 500 mg DHA (reported as triglycerides on brand panels). Adults typically take two softgels daily at mealtime — follow your pack. GymStack stocks the 90+30 softgel bonus pack (SKU P35332) when in stock.

What's the difference between Carlson Elite Omega-3 and Maximum Omega 2000?

Both are concentrated Norwegian fish-oil softgels taken as two softgels per serving. Elite Omega-3 Gems delivers 1600 mg omega-3s per serving (800 mg EPA and 600 mg DHA). Maximum Omega 2000 delivers 2000 mg omega-3s per serving (1250 mg EPA and 500 mg DHA), so it is higher in total omega-3s and EPA, while Elite is higher in DHA. Both contain fish and use gelatin softgel shells.

How much vitamin D is in Carlson Super Daily D3?

Super Daily D3 4000 IU provides 4000 IU (100 μg) vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) per single drop. Super Daily D3 + K2 provides 2000 IU (50 μg) vitamin D3 plus 45 μg vitamin K2 (MK-7) across two drops. Kids Super Daily D3 + K2 provides 1000 IU (25 μg) D3 plus 22.5 μg K2 per drop. Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to the maintenance of normal bones. Follow age guidance on the pack.

Does Carlson fish oil contain fish?

Yes. Carlson fish oils declare fish as an allergen — typically anchovy, sardine and mackerel for The Very Finest Fish Oil and concentrated omega-3 gems, and cod for Wild Norwegian Cod Liver Oil Gems. Softgels also commonly use beef gelatin in the shell. If you have a fish allergy, do not use these products. Always read the allergen statement on your pack.

Are Carlson fish oil softgels gluten free?

Carlson marks many of its omega-3 softgels and liquids gluten-free and free from artificial preservatives on brand materials. They still contain fish and usually beef gelatin, so they are not suitable if you have a fish allergy or if you avoid animal gelatin. If you are coeliac, confirm the gluten-free statement on the specific bottle you buy, because formulations can vary by product and market.

How much omega-3 is in Carlson kids fish oil?

Kids The Very Finest Fish Oil provides 800 mg total omega-3s per half teaspoon (2.5 ml): 400 mg EPA, 250 mg DHA and 45 mg DPA on current brand panels. GymStack currently stocks the Natural Mixed Berry 200 ml bottle when inventory is available; other kids flavours and sizes may be out of stock. Use only as directed for the child's age on the label.
