Gamma linolenic acid (GLA) works well in combination with fish oil. Most people take way too much of it. Barry Sears (author of The Zone diet books) recommends taking tiny amounts of GLA -- only a few milligrams a week. (A capsule of evening primrose oil typically contains 90 mg of GLA.) What I do is prick a capsule with a pin, squeeze out a drop or two, and then keep the capsule in a sandwich bag in the refrigerator to use again in a few days. Also, you might want to try krill oil instead of fish oil. Krill oil has much more of an effect on my brain than fish oil.
