Most people taking fish oil supplements obtain just a fraction of an optimal dose because they just take what is shown on the label of the bottle. For food grade fish oil capsules you want to take between five to ten softgels of fish oil per day to achieve the recommended quantity.
Pharmaceutical grade fish oil supplements such as those by Doctor's Holistic Rx contain a higher amount of the omega 3 fats. You only have to take two capsules of pharmaceutical grade fish oil per day to get the recommended quantity of the omega 3 fats.
