People take fish oil so they don't have to think about fish. Fair enough. But the numbers favor the dinner.
Omega-3s — specifically EPA and DHA, the two your heart and brain actually use — come almost entirely from fish. A salmon dinner like the one on our menu this week carries roughly two grams of them. A typical fish-oil capsule carries about 300 milligrams. So one plate of salmon is a handful of capsules, except it also brings 40 grams of protein and tastes like dinner instead of a supplement aisle.
Most guidelines land in the same place: fatty fish about twice a week. One salmon dinner gets you halfway there without doing any math at the pharmacy.
