Give me the low down on this supplement. Googled it and got some positive studies but also stories discrediting the benefits.

Also, how much should I take? I have a container that says, "1000 mg" but on the back says 300mg.
>>
just a handful
>>
>>42180459
What?
>>
>>42180316
Two pills daily
>>
>>42180316
Take as much as you deserve, but not how much you need right now
>>
>>42180518
just take a bunch of them, what's going to happen?
>>
>>42180533
These bitches are expensive though, so how much is optimal?
>>
>>42180536
just stop being poor

>>42180536
1.5g epa and 1g dha should be enough. Each brand has different content in each pill so it usually comes down to 3 softgels
>>
>>42180570
The brand I have doesn't say how much EPA/DHA. Just says 300mg total omega-3

Just eat actual fish. Sardines and tuna are pretty good.
>>
>>42180580
No thanks. I don't like mercury.
>>
>>42180580
bad advice
>>42180583
good post
>>
>>42180583
>he thinks sardines and canned tuna have significant mercury content

Small fish are safe.
>>
read somewhere to take 2-3g of EPA/DHA combine.

so what im taking is equivalent to 4 pills a day
>>
>>42180604
Alright thanks.
>>
>>42180592
>sugar listed in ingredients

nty, that's worse than mercury.
>>
Did a literature review on Omega's for my Masters last year, basically there isn't much evidence that they do anything at all.
>>
>>42180316
I take around 2-4 pills daily (package says 5 a day) I do have way less joint pain, but that might be becauseI moved to lighter weight, percentage based program, also I rarely eat fish, except for tuna
>>
>>42182434
Contents say:
>1 Capsule 600mg
>450mg Natural Salmon oil/fat (not sure how to translate that)
>E422
>Gelatin
>Omega-3 25% (dunno what this mean)
>>
>>42182470
Not all the oil is omega 3
In one capsule, there's only 25% omega 3
>>
>>42180934

>>
I take 6 pills a day, which amounts to approximately 1 g of DHA and 1 g of EPA.
