The American Heart Association recommends 300 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid per day for healthy adults and about 1 g for patients with coronary heart disease. The Association also recommends a daily intake of at least 1 g of omega-3 for the prevention of nervous disorders and mental illness.
