Effectiveness Rating: Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) vs Fish Protein Hydrolysate

The effectiveness rating is a measure of the supplements' ability to improve glucose control. This rating answers the question of whether or not a supplement does what it claims. The evidence shows fish protein hydrolysate is better than eicosapentaenoic acid (epa) in its ability to improve glucose control. Fish Protein Hydrolysate should provide some positive results while eicosapentaenoic acid (epa) will not.

Confidence Rating: Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) vs Fish Protein Hydrolysate

Another factor to take into account when comparing supplements is the confidence rating. This rating is a measure of how valid each supplement's effectiveness rating is. Remember, the confidence rating is a measure of how much you can trust the effectiveness rating. This rating is based on how many studies are included in the database on a supplement's claims. Ideally, you want a high effectiveness AND confidence rating.

Both eicosapentaenoic acid (epa) and fish protein hydrolysate have low confidence ratings. This means neither supplement has an adequate amount of research to back up this claim. A low confidence rating questions the validity of the effectiveness rating.
