Dosages of up to 2 g Omega-3 may be used, although long-term use of high doses is not recommended. Long-term intake of fish oils may reduce vitamin E absorption, so fish oil products should include vitamin E (preferably natural, full spectrum forms containing mixed tocopherols/tocotrienols) . Oily fish which naturally contain high levels of Omega-3 fatty acids include anchovy, black cod, bluefish, halibut, kipper, mackerel, mehaden, mullet, herring, pilchard, sable fish, salmon, sardine, seal blubber, sturgeon, trout, tuna, and whale blubber.

The ratio of EPA and DHA should reflect that which occurs naturally in oily fish. Must be accompanied by a statement to the effect that 3g must be consumed weekly, or 0.45g daily, as part of a healthy lifestyle. When a product is presented as a stand alone serving, then each serving must contain no less than 0.2g LC n-3 PUFA. When a product carries a recommendation for a number of portions per day or week then the total LC n-3 PUFA content of the daily JHCI Joint Health Claims Initiative, 2004 (http://www.jhci.org.uk/approv/JHCIDossier.pdf) 2,351 Page 1,417 of 3,931 Category Food Component Health Relationship Suggested Conditions of Use Nature of Evidence References Claim ID recommendation (daily serving) must be greater than 0.2g.

Clarify to consumers when products have been fortified with LC n-3 PUFA and make clear to consumers the origin of the oil.

Thus, products containing =45 mg phosphatidyl-serine per 100 g or 100 mL would qualify to carry the proposed claims. Studies demonstrating efficacy ranged in duration from 6 weeks to 6 months. While, in some studies, efficacy, improvements were noted after 3 weeks, the majority of studies reported improvement after 6 weeks; thus, an intake of 300 mg/day phosphatidyl-serine for a minimum of 6 weeks is recommended.
