Optimal Fish Oil Dosage and Usage

The recommended daily dosage of fish oil is contingent upon its concentration, particularly favoring products that derive from smaller fish such as mackerel and sardines. It is suggested that a quality fish oil should have a two-to-one ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids. To prevent unpleasant fish burps, freezing fish oil capsules before consumption allows them to thaw in the stomach, thus mitigating this side effect. Trusted sources for methylated B vitamins include Thorne and Pure Encapsulations, which provide forms necessary for proper absorption and bodily function.
