Depression, what omega-3 dosage?
Dear Sirs , I suffer from a mild form of depression associated with anxious states . I do not take any antidepressant medication . can you tell me the daily dose of omega 3 to improve my health ? Thank you John
Dear John,
in cases of depression and in anxious states, omega-3 fatty acids can be useful adjuvants. In this case, in order to be effective, the recommended omega-3 dosage is about 1 g of EPA and DHA per day, the two omega-3 fatty acids with beneficial effects on our bodies.
In this regard, I recommend reading this overview of the observed correlations between omega-3, depression, and anxiety states.
Depression, tips for omega-3 dosage
- For your depression, you can potentially find support in Omegor Vitality 1000.
I recommend this product because 2 capsules of Omegor Vitality 1000 daily provide the recommended daily intake of 1 g of omega-3 EPA and DHA.
- You can manage your capsule intake as you see fit and according to your needs.
He can then choose whether in one administration or in two different administrations, whether just before or near a main meal-breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
- The supplementation period I recommend is at least 2-3 months.
This, because the effects of omega-3 supplementation are seen gradually over time. I recommend that you inform your physician of your intention to undertake this supplementation. I remain available for further information. Sincerely, Dr. Rosaria Ramondino Pharmacist and Pharmaceutical Chemist *For more information:
