Total Omega-3 Fatty Acids 720 mg *

Yep. That's for two capsules, so you are getting 315 per capsule. We figured out on the Kirkland that the extra added is about 6.8% of the total. So multiplying 315 by 93.2% means the EPA/DHA in each capsule is 293.58. Means 10 capsules gets you close enough to 3K to qualify. I keep eleven of the Kirkland next to my computer and take them like jelly beans over the day.

The PHD Scientist type who leads QA for Costco's supplier told me Friday he would be right back to me. Not a peep so far.

The marketing people who came up with this scam; that is now speading around the industry; are real proud of themselves.

New labels without the EPA/DHA breakdowns that were on the old labels in my last batch.

There are so many brands out there that do specify exact EPA/DHA, that I would just stay away from this one.
