The majority of fish oil takers obtain only a fraction of an optimal dose because they take what is recommended on the label. With a low quality fish oil supplements you need to take anywhere from five to ten softgels of fish oil daily to achieve the recommended dosage.
Pharmaceutical grade fish oil products such as those by Doctor's Holistic Rx contain a higher amount of omega 3 fats. You can take just 2 1000 mg capsules of pharmaceutical grade fish oil daily to get the recommended dosage of omega 3 fats.
