Hi, Can I take 1000 mg fish oil omega 3 my age is 29 and I am a female.

Question

Here is how much Omega-3 you need per day:
For depression, you need: 1000 mg per day
For heart disease, you need: 1000 mg per day
For skin disorders, you need: 1000 mg per day
For blood pressure, you need: 2000 mg per day
For arthritis, you need: 2000 mg per day
For asthma, you need: 2000 mg per day
For diabetes, you need: 2000 mg per day
For high triglycerides, you need: 3000 mg per day
If you’re 35 and fit as a fiddle, (I’m a little jealous) to stay fit, you may only need 500 mg to 1000 mg a day.
Again, don’t confuse 1000 mg fish oil with 1000 mg Omega-3. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME!
Fish oil CONTAINS Omega-3. Cheap fish oil usually has 30% Omega-3. 30% of 1000 mg is 300 mg. That’s why you need 3 pills per day to get 1000 mg.
