GloryFeel Omega 3 Fish Oil Review #gloryfeelOmega3


** I received this product for free in exchange of my unbiased review. My findings are 100% mine and may vary from yours. (This review is also available in my Amazon profile)



I have been drinking omega fish oil for sometime now. I have tried many brands already, as prescribed by my doctor and some I have bought on my own. And so far, of all the brands I have tried, this one does not give off that fishy smell and taste. I also noticed that my burp didn't have that fishy after-taste which I have experienced with the other brands.

The size is almost similar with the other brands I have taken. The one thing that I noticed right away from Gloryfeel's Omega 3 Fish Oil is that it is not glossy. It still comes in a gel-like capsule but it has matte texture so it does not stick with the other capsules inside the bottle. That is a plus factor for me because the one I am taking (Vitamin World Omega 3 Fish oil) before I tried this brand, the capsules stick to each other so I have to shake the bottle to loosen the contents.

Each capsule contains 2000mg fish oil, 800g EPA and 600mg DHA. And it contains fish oils from herring, anchovy, sardine, salmon and mackerel which is clearly indicated in the bottle label so those with allergic reactions are informed.



Omega 3 fish oil is beneficial to one's health. It improved good cholesterol level, healthy heart and joints, brain functions and skin texture. According to the label of this product, it also supports weight loss. So far, I have not noticed any remarkable change in my weight since I am not dieting nor exercising. So I cannot provide any input in that aspect.

I do recommend this product. However, like any other precautions to take when ingesting supplements, please check your physician especially if your are taking medications for known conditions.

Ways To Prevent Loss of Vision

Our sense of seeing is probably one of the most important senses we are trying to protect and preserve as much as we can. However, not everyone has been blessed with a good eyesight. I am really lucky (and much of it must be credited for eating the right food and not straining my eyes) to have 20/20 even in my early 40s. My daughter who is only 15 is already wearing a prescription glasses which goes higher and higher each year.

So, how do we prevent the degeneration of healthy cells in our eyes? Take note of these tips and prevent  vision loss and macular degeneration.


  • Take multi-vitamin with B6, folic acid, and B12, Vitamin C and E and zinc.
  • Take DHA omega-3 fatty acids supplement. If not, include omega-3 fatty acid rich food in your daily meal like salmon and avocado.
  • If you are on the heavy side, loss weight as people with high LDL cholesterol, high triglycerides and those with high blood pressure are linked to macular degeneration.
  • Eat plenty of green leafy vegetables and fresh fruits especially those rich in beta-carotene like carrots, lutein and zeaxanthin.
  • Quit smoking as smoker have higher risk of developing macular degeneration.
  • Exercise and be active as this help nourish your retina with enough intake of oxygen.
  • Do not stare on your computer's monitor, TV, portable game consoles or any small device that can strain your eyes.
  • If you have a desk job which involves long hours of computer usage, try to gaze away from your monitor every 20 minutes and look at greeneries or cool colors like pastel ones to sooth your eyes.

Essential Fats

My husband and I just bought a kilo of tilapia a while ago. We love eating fish specially the one I mentioned. My daughter asked why we always have to eat fish at least twice or thrice in a week. I told her it is because fish contains essential fatty acids which are good for human consumption. I also "educated" her slightly on the benefits of duet dha which is good for developing babies. I told her that when she was still a baby, I always fed her and at the same time, consumed fish meat for brain and eyes development.

She was amazed. I think she will not mind having fish like salmon, herring, trout and other oily fish in her added on her regular meals.

Health Nut - Walnuts

Walnuts are one of the super foods. Walnuts are rich in fibre and this fibre stimulates the production of bile which draws out unwanted cholesterol in the liver. Walnuts also contain omega-3 fatty acids which are vital in the making of the positive type of cholesterol. This positive cholesterol aids in breaking down the bad cholesterol in our system.

Three oz. of walnuts a day can lessen the bad cholesterol. However, people with normal cholesterol level can take only as much as a handful the day before they plan to have a rich meal. Reason for that is because the fibre helps prevent the saturated fat from turning into unwanted cholesterol.
