Concentrated EPA and DHA supplement 2 Weeks, 5 Days ago Karma: 0  
I'm unable to build an accurate description of my fish oil supplement with my personal plus software. I was wondering if someone else could with the clinical software. Here is the information.

Nordic Naturals
Ultimate Omega Liquid
Highly concentrated EPA and DHA

1 Tsp (5ml)
Calories 45
Calories from fat 45
Total Fat 5g
Saturated fat .2
Trans fat 0
Vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol) 30 I.U.)
Omega 3s
EPA 1626 mg (20:5 (n-3))
DHA 1126 mg (22:6 (n-3))
Other Omega-3 450
Total Omega-3 3202
Oleic Acid (Omega 9) 140 mg (18:1 (n-9))

Monounsaturated Fat line should probably also read .14 g because the Oleic is monounsaturated.


Information on chemical and lipid names http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega-3_fatty_acid#List_of_n.E2.88.923_fatty_acids http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega-9_fatty_acid

I can put in all the epa and dha as omega-3 but it grossly misstates what is actually being taken since most omega-3 added to food is alpha-Linolenic acid (ALA).
