Effectiveness Rating: Fish Oil vs Green Tea Extract

The effectiveness rating is a measure of the supplements' ability to reduce muscle soreness. This rating answers the question of whether or not a supplement does what it claims. The evidence backing up fish oil to reduce muscle soreness is much better than the evidence backing up green tea extract. Fish Oil should provide positive results while green tea extract will not.

Confidence Rating: Fish Oil vs Green Tea Extract

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.

Fish Oil's confidence rating is higher than green tea extract's. This means fish oil's effectiveness rating from above is more valid. This does not necessarily mean that fish oil works better, it simply means the evidence (included in this database) backing up fish oil is more established.
