Omega 3s…Are YOU taking them?

"As a rule of thumb you should be taking 1/2 gram of EPA/DHA for every 10lbs. body weight...so follow my math for a person who weighs 140 lbs:
140 lbs/10= 14 X .5 grams = 7 grams = 7000 mg of epa/dha....
Costco (Kirkland Brand) capsules are 1000mg, but only 300 mg of EPA/DHA.... so that means 7000mg /300mg = 24 capsules....
If that seems like a lot...it is! Start with 3 at each meal (3X per day)....and work up to your prescribed amount."
When it comes to Omega-3 it's going to pay to be a pill popper.
