? How much fish oil?

I was reading a 7 year old article recommending 30-40 g of fish oil a day. I was curious how much everyone uses.
 
I think that dosing scheme originates from a Charles Poliquin article. Stick with what The Solution suggested and you're good.
 
2 to 3 g of EPA/DHA is the equivalent of 12 g of what I have. The 30 to 40 g was, indeed, a CP recommendation. I realize he's been known to be a bit of a flake.
 
I take 2g of fish oil. 600mg EPA/DHA. My preferred fish oil is ON because I can get that dose with just 2 capsules and I do not get fish burps with them.
 
I take 3 grams of EPA and 1.5 grams of DHA per day usually. Sometimes more when joints are achy.
