Are these soft gels the same size as the Nordic Naturals Children's DHA 250 mg?

No, the junior ones are larger, and my kids claim they don't taste as good as the children's ones. So I've gone back to the children's DHA for both my 2 and 7 yr olds.

The size is different - the ultimate is more of a football shape, while the children's is a sphere - so it affects the amount of dha in each capsule.The children's DHA is arctic cod liver oil, while the ultimate omega junior is from anchovies and sardines.My kids also say the taste is a little different, even though they're both strawberry flavored. They prefer the children's flavor.

They're about double or triple the size of a vitamin E or D soft gel. I haven't had any problems.

They are medium to large in size, but definitely not large like fish oil caps. I use a trinket case I purchased at Michaels to carry my vits when traveling. definitely better than the pill case

They are medium size, but I would not advise buying this particular product as it does not have the same potency I expected.

They aren't softgels but they are time release. They are small. Smaller than an asprin. About the size of a claritin or a bit bigger.

They are fairly large. Definitely bigger than an ibuprofen, but they are smooth and I find them easy to swallow. I take four at a time (I need the extra DHA for my brain) and swallow them easily.

They are tablets not soft gel. They are larger than baby asprin but smaller than the standard sized ibuprofen. Really a good size if you have any issues swallowing pills.

They've been a consistent size the last two times I have ordered from them. As for size=quality, I'm not sure nor have ever read anything. I hope you get the chia product you invision.

To figure out the size, I took the fact that three of them contain 2600mg of flax and fish oils, divide that by three and you get each gelcap at about 850mg. That size is a bit smaller than the average 1000mg fish oil gelcap, so that's a plus.

They are a decent adult size at 1,000mg each (as it says on the front of the bottle), so it depends on how big your "kid" is. :) Personally, I give my kids Vital Choice wild sockeye salmon oil. It's a pure, natural form product and tastes fresh. They can chew them up, get the oil out, and discard the softgel casing. Works great!

This softgel is approximately 7/8" in length and 5/16" in diameter. It is considerably smaller than a 1000 mg. fish oil capsule.

Not large at all. I would say they're comparable to Advil liquid gels or maybe smaller.

A little smaller than a shelled peanut or maybe twice as big as a Tic Tac. They are smaller than other DHA pills because they are only 125mg, not 200mg like all the other ones I've taken.

When you want to know the size so you can compare it with other softgels you may have, just look at the total oil contained in the softgel. The label here says 1.3grams, which is 1300mg. The average fish oil is about 1,000-1200, so these are pretty big. BUT, as has been said, they are squishy and go down easy.

Great question! As Nordic Naturals is slowing changing the labels on their products, they are indicating the total amount of Omega-3's per serving in the product. As you can see on the bottom of the image of the product, each softgel is still 1,000 mg, which is the amount of fish oil per softgel. The 690 mg above that refers to the total amount of Omega-3s per SERVING (of 2 softgels), since this is more concentrated than many other brands. We hope this helps.

According to the label on the container I bought- 1 soft gel contains 150 mg EPA /90 mg DHA / 310 mg total omega-3 fatty acids, 1 soft gel=1500 mg / 1 soft gel contains 1000 mg fish oil Hope this helps
