HealthKart HK Vitals Fish Oil vs NOW Foods Omega-3 1000mg

# Verdict NOW Foods Omega-3 edges ahead with a 6.5/10 overall score versus HealthKart's 6.0/10, though the ₹1.66 per serving price advantage makes it the clear winner. **Why NOW Foods scores higher:** Its formula rating of 6.2 beats HealthKart's 5.0, primarily due to better overall composition despite lower total omega-3 content. The dosing score of 5.9 versus 5.5 reflects more balanced EPA ratios for general health. **The trade-off:** HealthKart delivers significantly more omega-3s—900mg combined EPA/DHA from 1150mg fish oil versus NOW's 750mg combined from 1000mg concentrate. HealthKart's 525mg EPA and 375mg DHA totals are notably higher than NOW's 500mg EPA and 250mg DHA (using the higher DHA figure listed). **Recommendation:** Choose NOW Foods for budget-conscious daily omega-3 maintenance at ₹12.99 per serving. Choose HealthKart if you specifically need higher DHA doses (375mg vs 250mg) for cognitive or eye health support, despite paying ₹14.65 per serving. Both offer identical transparency scores (10.0), so ingredient disclosure isn't a differentiator. For most Indian consumers, NOW's combination of better scoring and lower cost makes it the smarter purchase.
