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

# Verdict **HealthKart HK Vitals edges ahead** with a 6.7/10 score versus NOW Foods' 6.5/10, primarily due to superior value despite a weaker formula. **The critical difference is EPA content**: NOW Foods delivers 500mg EPA per serving compared to HealthKart's 180mg—a massive 278% advantage. Both provide identical 120mg DHA. For cardiovascular health and inflammation reduction, EPA is the dominant omega-3, making NOW Foods significantly more potent where it matters most. **However, price tells another story**: HealthKart costs ₹9.98 per serving versus NOW Foods' ₹12.99—a ₹3 difference (30% cheaper). This explains HealthKart's 5.6 value score versus NOW's poor 4.5 rating. **Recommendation**: If you're targeting heart health, joint inflammation, or triglyceride management, **choose NOW Foods** despite the premium. The 500mg EPA justifies the extra cost for therapeutic benefits. If you're budget-conscious and seeking basic omega-3 supplementation without specific health goals, **HealthKart offers adequate coverage** at better value. Both show perfect transparency (10.0), so label accuracy isn't a concern. For serious supplementation, pay the ₹3 extra for NOW Foods' superior EPA content.

HealthKart HK Vitals Fish Oil 1000mg received a score of 6.3/10, making it an average choice primarily suited for budget-conscious shoppers due to its low price of ₹9.98 per serving; however, it falls short in key dosing of EPA and DHA, which may disappoint those seeking effective omega-3 benefits. While the supplement boasts excellent label transparency, the lack of third-party testing and underwhelming omega-3 levels suggest that it's best to skip for anyone needing more robust support.
