In reply to Fish Oil - what is the monthly cost?, posted by btnd on April 3, 2003, at 5:45:18
If you have access to Costco (in the US) you can buy 300 capsules at reasonable dose for about $7-8. I take 6-8/day, for an EPA intake of about 1.2 g/day and DHA about 1 g/day. So the monthly cost is less than $7.
There are lots of other brands, and you can pay much more, but from what I can tell there's not much benefit to buying the more expensive brands. I suspect many come from the same source anyway. With many dietary supplements, there's a several-fold range of variation in price for the same thing, so you need to research it a bit to get the best deal.
