In reply to question about SJW and Fish oil, posted by spriggy on July 22, 2006, at 23:37:19
This page has a nice summary and some discussion of current fish oil studies: http://www.psycheducation.org/depression/meds/Omega-3.htm
Another summary: http://www.biovita.fi/suomi/terveyssivut/e-epa_table.html
Nothing very definitive there and the studies are small.
I currently try to take 1 gm EPA, which has been 6 capsules/day of 180 EPA and 120 DHA capsules. I just recently started taking Natural Factors where the capsules are 400 EPA and 200 DHA per capsule.
Some day I'd like to try 4 grams of EPA, which would mean 10 capsules a day. That wouldn't bother me, but the price does.
