Go to p10 table II

 

 

Table II. Potential indications for omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and

suggested doses.

 

Daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids (mg)

 

Condition

 

Psychiatric disorders

 

bipolar illness 9600 mg

 

But not sure what language the article is in to do a machine translation and

determine if this is the orginal source or if it referes to the orginal study.

Julia Ross in her book The Mood Cure mentions of a

study on bipolar cases for whom mixture of EPA and DHA

totalling 9,600mg daily ( over nine and half gms) was

used with excellent results and no side effects. In no

other study has such a high dose been used to my

knowledge. But Julia Ross did not give the reference

details of that study. Anybody knows the reference

please?
