Dosage of Fish Oil – If You Are Going to Take it, Make Sure You Get the Dose Right

Taking fish oil omega 3 fatty acids is just about a no-brainer these days. However you have to make sure the dosage of fish oil you consume is the right amount.

There are three main issues you need to be aware of when it comes to taking these capsules — the dose, purity and the freshness.

So who do you believe when it comes to dosage of fish oil — each manufacturer has a different story?

There have been dozens if not hundreds of scientific studies and tests conducted over the last few years. Initially they figured out a high intake of EPA was preferable to a higher dosage of DHA.

However opinion has now changed and they tell us DHA is more beneficial for your system than EPA. Based on this information it appears that you should have a dosage per soft gel of at least twice as much DHA as EPA.

This new information now to hand makes it much easier to find a good brand of capsules. It seems most of the ones on the  RAD 140 testolone market still have more EPA in each soft gel than DHA.

The actual amount of fish oil in the capsule is of little interest to us because the ingredients that benefit us are the omega 3 fatty acids. Keep this fact in mind when you look for a product – make sure it contains at least 50% DHA, EPA and other omega-3 fatty acids in each capsule.

The other issue often confused by many people is the amount of capsules should you take each day. Here again most supplies of omega 3 fish oil products have different opinions on how many soft gels you should take daily.

Always keep in the back of your mind, if you consume too much of a specific substance including fish oil — it may do you more harm than good.
