Finally started to take fish oil.
After listening to the Ben Greenfield podcast, I made the decision to go with Kion. 3 days in and my knee pain is disappearing. This is after years of constant pain following 8 years in the Marine Corps.

Good alternative to Nordic Naturals
When it comes to fish oil, I had been consuming Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega for quite some time until exploring quality alternatives that provide a better price point. A lot of different opinions exist as to how much and at what ratio EPA and DHA should be consumed daily, so fish oil supplements are typically differentiated by these attributes, as well as the types of fish used and how these are processed. The aforementioned Nordic Naturals product uses a 1.44:1 EPA to DHA ratio, and contains other Omega-3s not providing either of these, and this product from Kion uses a 1.22:1 EPA to DHA ratio alongside other Omega-3s not providing either of these. While Nordic Naturals is created from anchovies and sardines, this Kion product doesn’t specify the types of fish, only stating that this product is from “purified cold water fish oil”. EPA to DHA ratio recommendations are all over the map, but since the ratios provided by these two products are similar, apart from this factor my choice will largely come down to cost. Unfortunately, the quantity of fish oil per capsule for these two products also differs, so in order to compare costs a common denominator needs to be used. At current prices, Nordic Naturals costs about $0.06 per 100mg, and Kion costs about $.05 per 100mg, which means the costs are about the same. While sometimes capsule size can also be a differentiator, Nordic Naturals capsules are 640mg each and Kion capsules are 605mg each, essentially the same. Nordic Naturals additionally claims a “great lemon taste”, but capsules are intended to be consumed whole, not broken apart, so it doesn’t seem like this would provide any benefit. The bottom line is that Kion appears to provide a good alternative to Nordic Naturals, but it would be helpful if Kion improved its product labeling.
