At True Grace, we believe that caring for your health should also mean caring for the health of our planet. From what you choose to put in your body to the informed decisions you make that have a ripple affect on the environment – these aren’t lifestyle choices. They’re an expression of your values.
That’s why we’re proud to share that True Grace Omega-3 Fish Oil and Prenatal DHA are now certified by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC)—one of the most respected global standards for sustainable seafood.
This certification represents a meaningful step forward in our commitment to responsible sourcing, transparency, and environmental stewardship.
What Is MSC Certification?
The Marine Stewardship Council is an international nonprofit organization that works to protect ocean ecosystems and ensure seafood is sourced responsibly. Its certification program recognizes fisheries that meet rigorous, science-based standards for sustainable fishing.
Products that carry the MSC blue fish label come from fisheries that have been independently assessed to confirm they:
- Harvest fish from sustainable populations
- Minimize environmental impact on marine ecosystems
- Operate with effective and responsible fishery management
In other words, MSC certification ensures that seafood—and marine-derived ingredients like fish oil—are sourced in a way that protects ocean life today and for future generations.
Why MSC Certification Matters
1. Protects Fish Populations
MSC-certified fisheries must demonstrate that fish stocks remain healthy and abundant. Fishing practices must allow enough fish to remain in the ocean to reproduce and maintain long-term population stability.
2. Safeguards Marine Ecosystems
Sustainable fisheries must actively reduce their environmental footprint, minimizing impacts on other marine species and ocean habitats.
3. Ensures Full Traceability
The MSC program includes a strict Chain of Custody standard, meaning every step in the supply chain—from fishery to finished product—is verified to ensure the ingredient truly comes from certified sustainable sources.
4. Encourages Responsible Fishing Worldwide
MSC certification incentivizes fisheries around the world to adopt better practices, helping drive global improvements in ocean stewardship and responsible seafood production.
Why This Matters for Omega-3 Supplements
Fish oil and DHA supplements are powerful tools for supporting health—especially for heart, brain, and prenatal development. But because they rely on marine resources, responsible sourcing is essential.
By choosing MSC-certified omega-3 ingredients, consumers can feel confident that their supplements support both personal health and the long-term health of the oceans.

In fact, the specific Alaskan fishery we source from has less than 1% bycatch and never bottom-trawls. We even know the captain personally. His name is Gus.
We believe the best supplements nourish both people and the planet—and MSC certification helps ensure we’re doing exactly that.
You’ll soon begin to see the MSC certification prominently displayed on our labels as part of a refreshed look—a more visible reflection of our intention and attention to detail. Of what has always been true: our dedication to protecting ocean ecosystems while delivering exceptional quality fish oil to deliver the highest nutritional value.
Keep an eye out for this updated packaging coming soon—we’re proud to share this important certification more clearly with you. From our captain to your capsule!
