How much Omega 3 do I need per day?

To obtain all of the fantastic health benefits of NothingFishy Omega 3, a consistent dosage amount is key. Each of our softgels contain 200mg of DHA, and we recommend taking 2 softgels a day which provides you with a total of 400mg of DHA.

Why should I take 2 NothingFishy Omega 3 softgels a day?

Studies have shown that higher levels of DHA intake can have numerous benefits for your overall well-being. DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is an essential Omega-3 fatty acid that plays a crucial role in supporting our brain, heart and vision. By taking 2 softgels daily, you can ensure you're getting an adequate amount of DHA to support these vital functions.

While the recommended daily intake of DHA can vary based on individual factors such as age, sex and specific health conditions, a common dosage often recommended for adults is around 250-500 mg per day, which is equal to 2 NothingFishy Omega 3 softgels.

What does the science say?

There is a significant body of research on the benefits of DHA supplementation, particularly in relation to brain health, cognitive function and cardiovascular health. Here are some key findings from studies investigating the benefits of DHA:

Cognitive Function and Brain Health

A study published in the journal Alzheimer's & Dementia showed that DHA supplementation improved cognitive performance in healthy older adults.

Another study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology found that DHA supplementation improved memory and learning in healthy young adults.

Cardiovascular Health:

Research has demonstrated that DHA supplementation can help reduce triglyceride levels, lower blood pressure, and improve overall cardiovascular health.

A systematic review and meta-analysis published in the journal Nutrition Reviews found that DHA supplementation significantly reduced the risk of cardiovascular disease and related mortality.

Eye Health:

DHA is essential for the development and maintenance of healthy eyes. Several studies have shown that DHA supplementation can benefit eye health and reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and dry eye syndrome.

Ready to jump on a fresh new wave of wellness?

By subscribing to a 30-day NothingFishy Omega 3 supply with 2 softgels a day, you'll have a more frequent and steadier intake of DHA, promoting long-term health benefits.

However, if you prefer a more extended supply, you can choose our 60-day subscription option which involves taking 1 softgel a day. While this will still provide you with a beneficial amount of DHA, keep in mind that the benefits may be more pronounced with a higher dosage.
