For a standard 1g capsule, there is about 300mg of EPA/DHA.
Does anyone know what kind of fat the other 700mg is? I hope it isn't saturated fat :S

The remainder are other O-3 fatty acids like Docosapentaenoic, Stearidonic, Eicosatrienoic, Eicosatetraenoic, & Heneicosapentaenoic FAs. Still, it's 20 grams of fat though.
Why so many? You know that problems can arise with cumulative high tallies right? [Not saying it's inevitable, but something to be mindful of]Last edited by in10city; 12-13-2008 at 04:14 AM.
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Look up the profile of fish fat (it varies a bit, but not a whole lot). Some of that it other omega3's some in mono and some saturated fat.
Salmon fat naturally has some saturated fat in it, just like beef is not 100% sat fat - in fact it is loser to 50%.
Nature (generally) isn't as extremist as we are and natural (esp. wild) foods are likely to have some 'balance' to them.
