Someone asked me about AdvoCare OmegaPlex recently.
And honestly? I get asked a lot about fish oils.
"Is this one good?" "Will this one work?" "Why do some fish oils cost $15 and others cost $45?"
Here's the truth: Most fish oils are fine.
But fine doesn't cut it when you're dealing with chronic bloating, inflammation, or hormonal chaos that feels like it has its own zip code.
You deserve something better than fine.
You deserve one that actually works.
The Problem with Most Fish Oils
Your gut can't absorb them properly.
[This is exactly why I felt nothing from fish oils for YEARS before I understood what to look for.]
The difference between a mediocre fish oil and a truly effective one comes down to 5 things:
✔ Form (triglyceride wins every time for absorption)
✔ Potency (1000-1500 mg EPA+DHA is therapeutic)
✔ Source (small fish = cleaner)
✔ Purity (third-party testing is non-negotiable)
✔ Clean ingredients (no mystery additives)
[And I put this into checklist format so you can save it HERE.]
So What About AdvoCare OmegaPlex?
Is it bad? No.
Is it the best option for women with gut issues? Probably not.
Here's why:
OmegaPlex doesn't emphasize the triglyceride form (which your gut absorbs more easily), doesn't highlight small-fish sourcing, and doesn't match the high-potency EPA + DHA levels found in gold-standard formulas.
It's fine. But you need more than fine.
What About More Omega?
Yes, I know you still ask about it. Yes, it was a community favorite. Yes, it sold out over and over again.
[And yes, after doing all this research, I'm seriously considering bringing it back.]
More Omega was designed specifically for women who:
- tried fish oil before but felt nothing
- react to additives, flavors, or heavy oils
- need clean, concentrated EPA + DHA
- want strong absorption without digestive upset
It checked every single box on that list above.
But since it's not currently available, I did the next best thing: I researched the market and found the closest possible replacements.

Here's What You Need to Know
I wrote an entire article breaking down:
- The 5 non-negotiables for choosing a gut-friendly fish oil
- Why form matters more than you think (and what TG vs. rTG vs. EE actually means)
- A full comparison table of OmegaPlex vs. More Omega vs. all the best alternatives
- Exact specifications and ratings for each brand

The Bottom Line
Fish oil quality matters — especially when your gut is already struggling.
OmegaPlex is fine — but for women with gut issues, you need more than fine. You need clean, potent, absorbable, trustworthy.
And you don't have to guess your way through the supplement aisle anymore.
If your healing feels slow… if inflammation feels stubborn… if hormones feel off… omega-3s can be part of your foundation.
Just choose the form your gut actually uses.

P.S. [Most] of the fish oils I recommend are available on my Fullscript Dispensary with 20-25% off. I've done the research so you don't have to waste money on supplements that won't work.
P.P.S. If you found this helpful, forward it to a friend who's also standing in the supplement aisle completely overwhelmed. [They'll thank you.]
