How much Omega-3 EPA+DHA (combined) should you take?

  2. Zone 263 to 188 mg per dayGeneral maintenance dose
  3. Zone 3188 to 313 mg per dayFor deficiency or elevated need

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.
