Buporai Omega-3 Wild Alaskan Salmon & Fish Oil 1000mg Softgels

Product Overview

Buporai Wild Alaskan Salmon & Fish Oil is an omega-3 softgel. The supplement facts panel in the listing photos gives, per 1 softgel: 1,000mg omega-3 fish oil, providing 300mg omega-3 fatty acids — 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA — plus 737mcg natural vitamin E. The softgel shell is bovine gelatin.

The bottle is labelled “100% wild source”, “mercury free” and “molecularly distilled”. The seller’s description is in Malay, copied from another marketplace, and only partly matches the photos.

Please Confirm the Pack Before Ordering

• Count: the listing never states it. Most photos show a 120-capsule bottle; one shows a 30-capsule bottle.
• Dose: the photos say 1 capsule once a day after a meal; the text says one to two softgels a day with food.
• Salmon or fish oil: the title says salmon oil; the bottle says “Salmon & Fish Oil”, so it is a blend. Its 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA is the typical profile of a standard 30% fish oil.

Message us before you order and we will confirm the count and read the label on the bottle we hold.

Key Benefits

• EPA and DHA — the long-chain omega-3 fats found in oily fish. The body makes very little of them itself, so they have to come from food or supplements.
• DHA for brain and eye structure — DHA is a physical building block of both.
• Triglycerides — omega-3 lowers blood triglycerides, though the clear effect is at 2 to 4 grams a day of EPA and DHA, far more than one softgel.
• A sensible everyday amount — 300mg omega-3 a day is in line with general advice for people who rarely eat oily fish.

What the Listing Claims, and What Is Known

• “Reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke” — eating oily fish is linked with better heart health, but large trials of standard-dose fish oil capsules have mostly not shown fewer heart attacks or strokes in the general population.
• “Helps control cholesterol and blood pressure” — omega-3 lowers triglycerides at high doses and may lower blood pressure slightly; it does not lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol. It is not a substitute for prescribed medicine.
• Memory, eyesight and immunity — supplements have not been shown to sharpen memory or eyesight in healthy adults.
• “Made in the USA in an FDA GMP-certified facility” — the US FDA does not certify supplement factories in that way, and we cannot verify the origin. GMP is a manufacturing standard; the badges on the photos are the maker’s claim.

Important — Bleeding Risk

Omega-3 oils thin the blood slightly. That is usually harmless on its own, but it matters if you are also taking something that does the same thing.

• Do not take it alongside warfarin, aspirin, clopidogrel or any other blood thinner without asking your doctor. The effects add up.
• Tell your surgeon or dentist that you take it, and expect to be asked to stop about two weeks before any operation.
• Stop and get medical advice if you notice unusual bruising, nosebleeds, or bleeding that takes longer than normal to stop.

Fish Allergy and Gelatin

Contains fish. Do not take it if you have a fish allergy. The softgel is bovine (beef) gelatin, so it is not vegetarian, and no Halal certification is stated.

Ingredients / Specifications

Per softgel (serving size 1 softgel, from the label photo): omega-3 fish oil 1,000mg; omega-3 EFAs 300mg; EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) 180mg; DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) 120mg; natural vitamin E 737mcg.

How to Use

1. Take one softgel a day after a meal, as the photos direct — or follow the label on the bottle you receive.
2. Taking it with food helps absorption and cuts fishy burps.
3. Do not stack it with another fish oil or cod liver oil without adding up the totals.

Who Is It Suitable For?

Adults who rarely eat oily fish such as ilish (hilsa), sardines or mackerel, and want a simple once-a-day omega-3.

Not for anyone with a fish allergy, not for vegetarians, and not for children or pregnancy without a doctor.

Why Choose Buporai Salmon & Fish Oil?

A once-a-day softgel with stated EPA and DHA figures on the panel — the numbers that matter when comparing omega-3 products, rather than the total oil. Confirm the count with us before ordering.

This Is a Supplement, Not a Medicine

A dietary supplement is a food product. It is not a medicine, it has not been through the testing a medicine goes through, and it does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

Supplement labels use health language — “supports”, “helps maintain”, “promotes” — precisely because they are not permitted to claim treatment. Read them that way. If a listing anywhere promises that a capsule will fix a medical condition, that promise is not one the product can keep.

What a supplement can honestly do is fill a gap in your diet. That is worth something, and it is a smaller thing than most packaging implies.

Talk to a Doctor First

Speak to a doctor or pharmacist before you start, particularly if you:

• take any prescribed medicine — supplements interfere with medicines more often than people expect
• are being treated for a heart, liver, kidney, thyroid or blood condition
• have diabetes
• are pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding
• have surgery or a dental procedure coming up

Never stop or reduce a prescribed medicine in order to take a supplement instead. That is the single most dangerous thing anyone does with a product like this, and it is what the marketing language quietly invites.

Storage

• Keep the container tightly closed, somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sunlight.
• Do not store it in a bathroom. Heat and humidity break supplements down faster than anything else, and a Dhaka bathroom is the worst place in the house for them.
• Leave the desiccant sachet in the bottle. It is there to keep moisture out, not by mistake.
• Softgels and fish oils are best kept in a fridge in hot weather — they go rancid otherwise.
• Keep it out of reach of children.
• Do not use it after the expiry date, and throw it away if the capsules smell strongly off, have stuck together or changed colour.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many softgels are in the bottle?

The listing does not say, and the photos show both 120 and 30. Message us and we will confirm before you order.

Is it pure salmon oil?

The bottle says salmon and fish oil, so it is a blend. The panel gives 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA per softgel — those are the figures to compare.

Is it Halal?

No Halal certification is stated, and the softgel is beef gelatin. If you need Halal, do not rely on this listing.

Should I take it with food?

Follow the pack. As a general rule, fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) and oils absorb better with a meal that contains some fat, and they are gentler on the stomach that way.

How do I check the pack is in date?

The expiry date is printed on the bottle or the base of the box. Check it as soon as your order arrives. If it is unreadable or close to expiry, message us and we will replace it.
