Reading notes

  • Multi-ingredient product. Amounts are per ingredient per serving; the product is assessed as one bundle, not as a recommendation for each ingredient.
  • EPA/DHA split not stored for this product. The omega-3 figure is the label's omega-3 line, not the softgel weight and not EPA+DHA.
  • Vitamin amounts shown in µg/mg. Labels may use IU.

What to check on the label

  • Find EPA and DHA as separate milligram lines. A large 'fish oil 1,200 mg' number is the oil weight, not the omega-3 content.
  • Check how many softgels make one serving. The amounts here are per label serving.
  • Look for the oil form (triglyceride, re-esterified triglyceride, ethyl ester) and for a batch report on oxidation (TOTOX). The catalog stores these only when the brand publishes them.
  • Algal oils list DHA and EPA the same way. Source species and sustainability marks are stored when listed.

Catalog verification record (reviewed 2026-08-07)

  • Source checked Species and region verified from manufacturer pages. No named third-party sustainability certification.
  • No public batch report No independent IFOS or Nutrasource batch report found.
  • Repeated consumer theme Same tolerability, complaint, or praise pattern found across multiple public consumer discussions.

Status as recorded in the catalog from brand materials; not independently verified by NO1GEVITY.

Amounts are per label serving as recorded in the catalog and are not a recommendation. Testing status reflects what the brand lists. Nothing here is medical advice.

Evidence gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Safety caps applied after weighting.

This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Why this scored this way

This Rosita Extra Virgin Cod Liver Oil (Liquid) scores 7.6, making it a strong scorer. It delivers 1210mg of Omega-3 (EPA/DHA), inside the studied range of 1000–4000mg with grade A evidence (strong human trial data). At $2.64/day it's among the more expensive options in Omega.

What drives the score up

  • Dose-evidence score of 8.6 reflects good alignment with trial doses.
  • Tested by independent lab (transparency 7.0).
  • Community score of 8.6 with positive consumer feedback.
  • Omega-3 (EPA/DHA) is dosed at the full research level with grade A evidence (strong human trial data).
  • Vitamin A is dosed at the full research level with grade A evidence (strong human trial data).

What drags it down

  • Vitamin D3 (0.01mg is 20% of the 0.05mg trial dose) is significantly under-dosed.
  • Vitamin A (3.0mg is 333% of the 0.9mg trial dose) is well above the trial dose. More is not always better.
  • No public lab certificate available for independent verification.
  • At $2.64/day it's on the expensive side.

Why you'd choose it

  • You want Omega-3 (EPA/DHA) from a Rosita product.
  • You want a tested by independent lab product.
  • You want doses that align with published research.

Why you might skip it

  • You want a product with a publicly available CoA.
  • You need a full trial dose of vitamin d3 (this product under-doses it).
  • You want a standard dose of vitamin a (this product is well above it).
Question 1

Does the molecule work?

The science behind each active ingredient, independent of which brand sells it.

Omega-3 (EPA/DHA)

The single best-supported longevity supplement most people don't take enough of.

8 landmark RCTs · US: Dietary supplement + Rx (Vascepa/Lovaza) · EU: Food supplement, health claims authorised
Vitamin A

Fat-soluble vitamin; toxicity concerns at high doses.

No landmark RCTs listed · US: Dietary supplement · EU: Food supplement (limit 800 μg RE)
Vitamin D3

Cheap, safe, and correcting a deficiency you probably have.

1 landmark RCT · US: Dietary supplement · EU: Food supplement (upper limit 100 μg/day)

Full ingredient breakdown

Every active in this formula, its declared dose per serving, the dose used in the primary human trial, how much of that trial dose this product delivers, and the evidence grade for the ingredient itself.

IngredientDose / servingResearch dose% of researchEvidence grade
Omega-3 (EPA/DHA)1210 mg2000 mg60%A
Vitamin A3 mg0.9 mg333%A
Vitamin D30.01 mg0.05 mg20%A

Percentages are dose per serving ÷ primary trial dose. Below 50% means the formula is unlikely to reproduce the trial outcome for that active. Grade A = multiple large human RCTs. Grade F = no human evidence. How grades work. Full glossary →

Question 3

What's the catch?

Safety flags, transparency gaps, dosing concerns, and recurring buyer complaints.

Safety signals
Exceeds upper intake limit — vitamin-a
3.0 mg per serving exceeds the tolerable upper intake level of 3.0 mg/day. UL is 3,000 μg RAE/day (3 mg/day) for adults from preformed vitamin A (retinol/retinyl esters). Chronic excess intake is associated with hip fracture, liver toxicity, and teratogenic effects. Beta-carotene is not subject to this UL.
Read more
Atrial fibrillation signal — omega-3
A meta-analysis of RCTs found that high-dose EPA-dominated omega-3 supplementation (≥1 g/day) was associated with a 25% relative increase in atrial fibrillation risk. Risk appears dose-dependent and higher with pure EPA formulations.
Read more
Drug interaction risk — omega-3
High doses (2-15 g/day) may increase bleeding time; caution with anticoagulants/antiplatelet drugs.
Read more
Drug interaction risk — vitamin-a
Retinoids may interact with oral contraceptives (reduced effectiveness), tetracyclines (increased intracranial pressure risk), and anticoagulants. Avoid high-dose preformed vitamin A during pregnancy.
Read more
Safety flag
vitamin-a dose 3.0 mg exceeds UL (3 mg); omega 3: bleeding risk with anticoagulants; vitamin a: bleeding risk with anticoagulants
Dose or interaction risk detected. See ingredient page for details.

Evidence, claims & regulation

Published evidence, claim checks, regulatory status and what could not be verified.

Important to know
Omega-3 (EPA/DHA)Ethyl ester (cheaper) absorbs worse than triglyceride form unless taken with fatty meal. Check third-party oxidation testing (TOTOX <10).
Vitamin ADo not exceed 10,000 IU/day. Pregnancy hazard.
Vitamin D3Taking without fat = poor absorption. High-dose D3 without K2 can drive calcium into arteries. D2 form (ergocalciferol) is inferior for raising blood levels.
Vitamin D3High doses (>4000 IU/day) may cause hypercalcemia. Do not exceed upper intake limits without medical supervision.
