Optimizing Omega 3 Intake with Fish Oil Supplements

To achieve a high Omega 3 index, it is recommended to supplement with fish oil, consuming around two grams daily. This can increase the Omega 3 index from 4% to 8%. It is crucial to ensure sufficient EPA and DHA intake while avoiding contaminants like mercury and PCBs. Additionally, choosing fish oil supplements with low oxidation levels is essential, as oxidation can compromise the effectiveness of Omega 3 fatty acids. Third-party testing sites such as Consumer Lab provide valuable information on affordable brands with optimal Omega 3, EPA, DHA levels, along with low oxidation and contaminant levels.
