> Hi Larry,

> Thanks for that info! : )You're welcome.

> Also for each capsule that says its 1000mg (on different brands i noticed this too) the levels of EPA and DEA would only work out to be maybe 300 EPA and 200 DHA per 1000mg capsule...which is a little misleading and confusing!Well, it's just that fish oil is a mixture of different fatty acids, and the ones we're interested in aren't all that's in fish oil.
> So I choose bottled Oil, the brand is Seven Seas which one of the best here in the UK.

> Per 10ml (2 teaspoons)

> Omega 3 nutrients - 2800mg
> of which EPA & DHA - 2300mg

> As well as all the other Vitamins A D & E etc..

> 2300mg of EPA and DHA sounds quite enough doesn't it? Would you say the recommended 2 teaspoons per day is about right or should i take any more?Perfect. I think it's just right. The vitamin D might do you a world of good, too.
> Many thanks Larry : )
