How much Omega-3 ALA should you take?

SuppScore grades doses across evidence zones rather than against a single recommended figure. Scored information, not a recommendation.

1. Zone 10 to 275 mg per dayLow dose
2. Zone 2275 to 825 mg per dayGeneral maintenance dose
3. Zone 3825 to 1100 mg per dayFor deficiency or elevated need
4. Zone 41100 to 1600 mg per dayTherapeutic dose
5. Zone 41600 to 3000 mg per dayTherapeutic dose

Zones describe what the evidence supports at a dose. They are not advice on what to take, and they do not replace a conversation with a doctor or pharmacist.
