Most people taking fish oil supplements are getting a small percentage of an optimal dose because they just take what is indicated on the bottles label. For food grade fish oil supplements you want to take anywhere from five to ten softgels of fish oil daily to achieve the recommended dosage.

Pharmaceutical grade fish oil products such as those by Doctor's Holistic Rx contain a higher amount of omega 3 fats. You need to take just two 1000 mg capsules of pharmaceutical grade fish oil daily to get the recommended dosage of omega 3 fats.
