How much omega-3 supplement (DHA+EPA) should you take a day?

Why does an omega-3 supplement (DHA+EPA) cause fishy burps?
An omega-3 supplement (DHA+EPA) can cause fishy-tasting burps when fish oil comes back up from the stomach. Taking it with food may help; a strong rancid smell or taste is different and can signal that the oil has oxidized.
Can an omega-3 supplement (DHA+EPA) help lower triglycerides?

Is an omega-3 supplement (DHA+EPA) safe during pregnancy?

How can you tell if an omega-3 supplement (DHA+EPA) has gone rancid?

Can you open an omega-3 supplement (DHA+EPA) capsule?
Yes, you can open an omega-3 supplement (DHA+EPA) capsule, but the oil may taste and smell strongly of fish. Once opened, it is exposed to air, so consume the oil promptly rather than leaving it out.
Does an omega-3 supplement (DHA+EPA) come from fish or algae?
