Why is Omega 3‑TG classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

Because the fish oil is refined to triglyceride form, encapsulated in gelatin, and mixed with humectants, the product undergoes multiple industrial steps, placing it in NOVA 4; the only additives listed are E428 (bovine gelatin) and E422 (glycerin).

Is the fish oil in this supplement a concern for people with fish allergies or for environmental sustainability?

Yes, the omega‑3s are derived from fish, so individuals allergic to fish should avoid it, and the sustainability of the source depends on the fish species and fishing practices, with many manufacturers now using certified sustainable fisheries.

Is Omega 3‑TG suitable for a ketogenic (keto) diet?

Its high fat (68.6 g/100 g) and virtually zero carbohydrate content make it keto‑compatible, though the high saturated fat and calorie density mean it should be used carefully within daily macro limits.
