Product verdict
- Cod Liver Oil, 1100 mg Omega-3s, Wild-Caught Norwegian Arctic Cod-Liver Oil, Sustainably Sourced Nordic Fish Oil Liquid, Unflavored, 500 ml
Product score
Verdict
Solid but basic
Gets the job done on basics (dose clarity, simple structure) but does not excel on form quality, transparency, or value - fine if price is right.
Strengths
- Serving size and count are explicit enough to sanity-check cost per dose.
- Few moving parts on the label - easier to audit than a proprietary stack.
- Tied to a high-scoring ingredient hub in our model.
Watch-outs
- Transparency lane scored low - expect to verify certs and COAs yourself.
- Missing reliable price data - value score is a neutral placeholder.
- Limited brand digital footprint in our file (e.g., no website on record).

Score summary
Total score
69/100
Gets the job done on basics (dose clarity, simple structure) but does not excel on form quality, transparency, or value - fine if price is right.
Scores are editorial heuristics from label structure, ingredient hub signal, transparency cues, rough value math, and conservative safety - not lab assays or prescriptions. Value uses a neutral baseline when price or servings are missing.
Computed with the v1 product rubric on each page load when DB scores are incomplete.
Score breakdown
Seven fixed lanes. Each is scored 0-100 and weighted into the total. Interpretations are plain-language, not clinical endpoints.
- Ingredient quality / fit
Strong fit with a solid published hub signal - or a clean single-ingredient SKU.
- Dosage plausibility
Parseable, but the dose line is vague, edge-case, or hard to map to common use.
- Formula quality
Neutral or partially specified - no strong bonus or penalty.
- Additives & label (combined lane)
Mixed or moderate: some fillers, flavors, or structure flags - read the label intelligence block below.
- Transparency
Sparse brand or label narrative in our file - treat marketing claims skeptically.
- Value
Weak price-per-serving versus peers we track, or value data was thin.
- Safety margin
Conservative lane: pulls from hub safety when available and avoids extreme label doses.
Label & additive intelligence
Structured excipient lines on file drive these scores - not lab testing. Burden tracks sweeteners, dyes, fillers, and similar add-ins; clarity tracks vague wording and proprietary structures. The combined lane is what feeds your total score.
