Will I benefit from taking evening primrose oil or flaxseed oil if I'm already taking Omega 3 supplements?!


Question: I already take fish oil supplements (Nordic Naturals ProOmega) which has 650 mg EPA & 450 mg DHA (Omega 3's) and also a tiny bit of Oleic acid (Omega 9).

Absolutely! Evening Primrose Oil has Omega-6 GLA, which is good for skin health and helping to balance out a woman's hormones (which helps a LOT of women with their "monthly issues"). Flaxseed Oil has Omega-3 ALA, which has some added benefits for cardiovascular and heart health among other things... it's similar benefits to Fish Oil, but you can take both for added effect.
If you are taking omega3 supplement in sufficient quantity. I don't think you need more of it but in my opinion to get omega 3 from flex seed oil or primrose is better than any supplement.
