Dear Patient,

The exact dose depends on the amount of Omega 3 in your capsule not the power of fish oil. A 1000mg fish oil capsule is the amount of fish oil, not the amount of omega 3 in it, which is why you are eating the capsule.
If you have no health problems you should take 1000mg of fish oil capsule which should give you 300-500mg of omega 3 in it.
