Ok,

I saw this thread and I thought-what they hey, I will just get all three bottles out and list what is on each one of them of the stuff I have anyway which isn't that fancy:

1) Flaxseed Oil 1G containing:

Alpha-Linolenic Acid 500mg
Linoleic Acid 200mg
Oleic Acid 200mg
Palmitic Acid 60mg
Stearic Acid 40mg

2) Fish Oil Concentrate 2G containing:

(EPA) Eicosapentaneoic Acid 360mg
(DHA) Docosahexaenoic Acid 240mg

3) Evening Primrose Oil .5G containing:

(LA) Cis-Linoleic Acid 350mg
(GLA)Gama-Linoleic Acid 45mg


From what I understand the "good stuff" is the DHA in the fish oil and the GLA in the primrose, and the ALA in the flax. Anybody, jump in and add and correct as necessary! I took all three today for the first time. I used my old non-enteric fish oil, and I didn't get any fishy burps (probably because my Celexa dose is at rock bottom and SSRI's give me acid reflux big time).
