Do You Have Concerns About Your Cholesterol Level And Maintaining A Healthy Heart? "American Heart Association (AHA)Endorses Fish Oil Supplements for Coronary Patients" 2003. Previously the AHA had recommended that patients with documented coronary heart disease (CHD) should consume 1g of omega-3 fatty acids (the daily fish oil fix) from a 3-ounce serving of fatty fish per day. For the first time the AHA has recommended that these individuals can derive this necessary nutrient from a fish oil capsule. Fish oil capsules are widely marketed containing 180 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid and 120 mg of docosahexaenoic acid. To get the necessary amounts patients should take 3 pills per day. Since 1999 AHA's nutrition committee reported that 1g of omega-3 fatty acids can significantly reduce the incidence of new coronary events in patients who already have heart disease.
