Fish Oil

What Does “1200 mg Fish Oil” Typically Mean?

• Content: A tablet or softgel labeled as 1200 mg fish oil usually contains that amount of total oil, but only a portion of this is the active Omega-3 fatty acids—mainly EPA and DHA

• Example: Nature Made Fish Oil 1200 mg softgel provides about 360 mg of total Omega-3s (EPA + DHA). A typical full serving (two softgels) would deliver around 720 mg Omega-3s 

Health Benefits of Omega-3 (EPA + DHA)

• Heart Health: May lower triglycerides, improve HDL (“good”) cholesterol, and support healthy blood pressure and heart rhythm 

• Brain & Cognitive Support: Aids brain development, attention, and memory; may improve mood and depressive symptoms 

• Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Can ease symptoms of inflammatory conditions like arthritis or IBD—possible benefits generally seen at higher doses (~1.5–4 g/day)

• Other Potential Benefits: Supports joint mobility, eye health, and skin appearance 

Safety & Dosage Guidelines

• Upper Intake Limit: The FDA recommends not exceeding 3 g/day of combined EPA + DHA, and no more than 2 g/day from supplements alone 

• Possible Risks:

  • High doses (over ~1 g/day) may raise the risk of atrial fibrillation or bleeding, especially in people without prior heart conditions 

  • Quality concerns: Over-the-counter supplements vary in purity. Choose products that are third-party tested for contaminants like mercury and PCBs
