What Complete Omegas 3:6:7:9 Does
Complete Omegas 3:6:7:9 helps your heart, your brain and your vision keep working the way they should, with 551 mg of EPA and 389 mg of DHA in a three-capsule daily dose.
Most omega supplements on a Kenyan shelf are a single fish oil. This one carries four cold-pressed oils in every capsule: fish oil for the long-chain omega-3s, starflower oil for omega-6, virgin olive oil for omega-9 and sea buckthorn oil for omega-7, with 16 mg of vitamin E holding the whole blend steady. It is the formula to reach for when you would rather take one capsule family than keep four separate bottles going on the same shelf.
The Four Oils, and What Each One Brings
Fish oil, 1,620 mg across three capsules. This is the working heart of the formula and it comes from wild sardines, anchovies and mackerel — small, short-lived fish that sit low in the food chain. It yields 551 mg of EPA and 389 mg of DHA, which is 940 mg of long-chain omega-3 a day. Higher Nature screen the oil for PCBs and other pollutants before it goes into the capsule.
Starflower oil, 654 mg, giving 144 mg of GLA. Starflower is also sold as borage, and it is one of the richest plant sources of gamma-linolenic acid, the omega-6 your body makes from linoleic acid. Higher Nature source theirs free from pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which matters with this particular plant.
Virgin olive oil, 253 mg, giving 142 mg of oleic acid. Oleic acid is the omega-9 that makes up most of the fat in the olive oil already in your kitchen, and it is here in its unrefined, cold-pressed form.
Sea buckthorn oil, 147 mg, giving 44 mg of palmitoleic acid. Omega-7 is the family you will almost never find in a Kenyan pharmacy, and sea buckthorn berry is the classic source for it. This is the ingredient that makes the formula a 3:6:7:9 rather than a 3:6:9.
Heart, Brain and Vision at the Dose on the Box
Three claims in the European register apply to this product at the amount Higher Nature actually put in it, and they are the three worth knowing.
Your heart. EPA and DHA together contribute to the normal function of the heart from 250 mg a day upwards. Three capsules give 940 mg, so you clear that threshold almost four times over. This is the claim with the widest dose cushion in the formula.
Your brain. DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function from 250 mg a day. You get 389 mg, so the labelled dose carries it on its own. DHA is a structural fat: it sits in the membranes of your nerve cells rather than acting on them from outside, which is why steady intake over months matters more here than any single dose.
Your vision. DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal vision at the same 250 mg a day, and the 389 mg does that job too. If your interest is specifically the macula at the back of the eye rather than general vision, a dedicated macular formula is built around a different set of nutrients and is worth looking at alongside this.
Vitamin E, the Quiet Part of This Formula
Each three-capsule dose carries 16 mg of vitamin E as d-alpha tocopherol, which is 133% of the nutrient reference value. Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, and at 133% NRV this product clears the threshold for that claim comfortably.
There is a second reason it is in there. Polyunsaturated oils oxidise, and a natural vitamin E keeps the four oils in the capsule stable until you swallow them. So the same ingredient earns a claim for you and protects the product on the shelf at the same time. It is the cleanest single claim in the whole formula, and worth knowing about before you compare this bottle with a cheaper plain fish oil.
How to Take It
Adults: three capsules a day, with meals. Splitting them across the day suits most people better than taking all three together, and taking them with food helps the oils absorb. Higher Nature set two capsules a day with meals for children aged 8 and over.
At three capsules a day a 90-capsule bottle covers a full 30 days, a 180 covers 60 days and a 240 covers 80 days. Tell us which pack you are holding or which one you want and we will work out exactly how many months it covers before you order.
Give it time. A structural fat works by being incorporated into your cell membranes, and that happens over weeks rather than days. Three months of steady use is a fair trial for an omega blend, and buying the larger pack makes that easier to see through.
If what you want is simply the highest EPA and DHA per shilling, a plain high-strength fish oil will get you there more cheaply, because you are paying here for the three extra oil families and the vitamin E. If your main interest is memory and concentration, have a look at a brain-focused formula as well.
Is Complete Omegas 3:6:7:9 Right for You?
- If you take a blood thinner, or you have surgery or a dental extraction booked. Omega-3 at this sort of dose can add to the effect of warfarin and similar medicines. Bring your prescription to the counter and let our pharmacist check it, or speak to our doctor before you start.
- If you are allergic to fish, or you avoid beef or pork gelatine. The oil is fish-derived and the capsule shell is bovine gelatine, so this one is not suitable for vegetarians, vegans, or anyone who needs a halal-certified capsule. Ask us and we will show you the plant-based omega options instead.
- If this is for a child. Higher Nature’s own instruction is 8 years and over at two capsules daily, and nothing below that age. For younger children we stock omega-3 syrups and chewables made for them.
- If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking any medication or managing a diagnosed condition. Higher Nature ask you to check with a healthcare professional first, and we would rather you did that with us than guess. Our doctor is at the pharmacy if you want the whole question looked at properly.
- If you came here because of your blood pressure or your cholesterol. Please talk to us before you buy. Those are numbers worth measuring and treating properly, and our doctor can tell you where a supplement fits and where it does not.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much EPA and DHA do I actually get?
Three capsules give 551 mg of EPA and 389 mg of DHA, which is 940 mg of long-chain omega-3 a day, from 1,620 mg of fish oil. The authorised heart claim needs 250 mg a day and the brain and vision claims need 250 mg of DHA, so the labelled dose carries all three.
What are the omega-6, omega-7 and omega-9 actually for?
They are there to make the blend complete across all four families: 144 mg of GLA from starflower oil, 44 mg of palmitoleic acid from sea buckthorn and 142 mg of oleic acid from virgin olive oil. The European register holds approved health claims for EPA, DHA and vitamin E, and none for those three families, so we describe them as ingredients rather than attaching benefits to them. Omega-7 in particular is very hard to find in Kenya at all.
Is this suitable for children?
For children aged 8 and over, yes — Higher Nature set the dose at two capsules daily with meals. Below 8 years this product is not suitable, and we stock omega-3 syrups and chewables made for younger children instead. Please ask us rather than halving an adult capsule.
Is it vegetarian or halal?
No. The oil is from wild sardines, anchovies and mackerel, and the capsule shell is bovine gelatine with glycerine. If you need a plant-based or certified-halal omega, tell us and we will show you what we carry.
Can I take it with my blood pressure or cholesterol medicine?
Bring the prescription to the counter first. Omega-3 at this dose is generally taken alongside those medicines without trouble, but it is worth a pharmacist looking at your actual list, and our doctor is at the pharmacy if you want the whole picture reviewed. Keep taking what you have been prescribed.
Does it interact with warfarin or aspirin?
It can add to the blood-thinning effect, so please speak to our pharmacist before you start, and tell your surgeon or dentist you are taking it if you have a procedure booked.
How is this different from an ordinary fish oil capsule?
An ordinary fish oil gives you EPA and DHA and nothing else. This gives you those plus the three other omega families and 16 mg of vitamin E at 133% NRV. If your only goal is maximum EPA and DHA per shilling, a straightforward omega-3 softgel is the cheaper route and we will say so.
Will it smell or repeat on me?
Taking the capsules with meals and splitting them across the day is what helps most. Keep the bottle somewhere cool and dry rather than on a sunny windowsill, which is also what keeps the oils fresh.
How long before I notice anything?
Treat three months as a fair trial. These fats work by being built into your cell membranes, which happens over weeks, so the larger pack is usually the better buy if you are serious about it.
