What It Means to Be a GOED Member
Members are part of a global community committed to making high-quality omega-3 products to improve public health.
GOED Membership Means Members Are:
Focused on Quality
Members follow GOED’s Monograph — the global benchmark for EPA and DHA omega-3 quality. That means their products are made to meet high standards for safety and integrity. GOED also randomly tests omega-3 member products sold around the world, providing an extra layer of confidence that what’s on the label matches what’s in the bottle.
Informed About Global Regulations and Technical Challenges
Global regulations and technical requirements for supplements and foods change constantly. Through GOED, members stay informed about new labeling or safety regulations and technical issues of importance — so they can keep offering products that meet the latest requirements.
A Part of a Trusted Global Network
Members are connected with companies across the entire omega-3 supply chain — from fisheries and ingredient manufacturers to contract manufacturers and brands — which gives them an understanding of supply chain dynamics, ensuring consumers have the highest quality products.
Up to Date on Omega-3 Science
GOED maintains the world’s largest compilation of clinical research on EPA and DHA omega-3s. That means members have direct access to the latest credible science, which guides their product development and helps them educate the public with accurate, science-based information.
Use the GOED Proud Member Logo
The GOED Proud Member logo represents their commitment to the GOED Monograph and the high-quality standards associated with it. The logo, on GOED member products and marketing, makes it easier for consumers to identify companies that have made such a commitment.
Care About Transparency and Consumer Protection
With GOED’s help, members know about misleading information in the news or on social media — and help correct it with accurate, science-based facts. This helps protect confidence in omega-3s and ensures public conversations reflect real evidence.
Being a GOED Member Reflects A Commitment to Consumers:
Members prioritize product integrity because we believe in and understand the health benefits of EPA and DHA omega-3s. They know the latest requirements for selling products globally. And they are working with others in the industry to build a better, more trustworthy future — for this category, and for your health.
