NOW L-Glutamine 500mg

Cardiovascular and cognitive support. Standard fish oils are often mostly filler fat. This version provides 750mg of actual EPA and DHA in a single softgel. It's a solid choice for heart health, though you'll need two capsules to hit clinical targets for mood or heavy inflammation.

7.9/10
VERY GOOD

High active omega-3 content makes this a step above your typical drugstore fish oil.
