At this time there is no official RDA for both omega 3 and omega 6.
Experts agree however that one should be getting a minimum of 500mg of omega 3 daily, especially in the form of EPA and DHA, however 1 g is what most are leaning more towards.
In terms of omega 6, the answer is not how much we should consume, but in order to make that fat beneficial it has to be consumed in a proper ratio with the omega 3.
The best ratio for health has been listed as 3 parts omega 6: 1 part omega 3. Some other experts waiver anywhere between a 1:1 ratio to a 4:1 ratio.
