What is omega-3 (epa + dha)?
EPA and DHA are omega-3 fats found mainly in oily fish. The body can't make enough of them on its own. They are part of every cell membrane and are especially concentrated in the brain and eyes. Algal oil is a vegetarian source of DHA (and some EPA) made from the same algae fish get it from.
Forms. Fish-oil softgels (look for EPA + DHA per serving, not just 'fish oil 1000 mg'), triglyceride-form concentrates, and algal oil for vegetarians.

Common questions
How much do I need?
Most people aim for 250–1,000 mg of EPA + DHA a day. Read the EPA and DHA amounts, not the total oil.
I'm vegetarian. What should I take?
Algal omega-3. Flaxseed alone doesn't raise EPA and DHA much.
Can I take it with aspirin or blood thinners?
Ask your doctor first, because omega-3 can add to the blood-thinning effect.
