Customer Rating: Summary: Actually has 360 mg Comment: The true dose is only revealed by adding the EPA and the DHA. One softgel has 216 mg of EPA and 144 mg of DHA. So, one softgel has 360 mg of helpful fish oil and the remaining 840 mg is filler fish oil.
When comparing fish oil, look at the back panel supplement facts. Add the EPA and DHA to get the true MG and make sure you look at the serving size. Nature made has 2 softgels per serving size, so you must divide by 2 to get the per softgel info.
Twin Labs Mega appears to have the most. Customer Rating: Summary: Omega 3 Comment: I started taking Omega 3 Fish Oil capsuls to lower my chlosterol but am amazed at how wonderful it has me feeling in so many other ways. Customer Rating: Summary: A Great Supplement for a Number of Reasons Comment: More and more studies indicate that a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids promotes a variety of health benefits: cholesterol management, cardiovascular maintenance, and possibly even improved brain function. My doctor debunked a number of popular dietary supplements (e.g. flaxseed, soy) but unequivocably supported the addition of a fish oil supplement to my diet. Everyone's condition is different, so obviously consult with your physician before undertaking any change in your fitness routine.
Nature Made makes a very good supplement. They use only wild ocean fish so the concentration of omega-3 is much higher than in grain-fed farm-raised fish. My doctor also indicated that this was an important distinction. The capsules are large, but easy enough to take with a little water. I don't even get the "fish burps" that many others have complained about (but in case you do, they also make a slow-release capsule that is intended to further guard against that).
Finally, for those concerned about levels of mercury or other pollutants in the fish products that they consume, Nature Made is certified by the independent USP labs.

Customer Rating: Summary: Natrue Made IS tested for purity Comment: I called Nature Made and inquired about their procedures to test their product for mercury. Their Fish oil is USP tested for purity and potency. There isn't any "mercury-free" fish oil, however, NM contains only .01 mcg / g of mercury. Very low level and certainly not toxic. I'm keeping my bottle of it and will take it confidently. FYI: they have a great website that contains all this information.
