I found this flyer at the vitamin shoppe and here are some tips about EFAs that I didn't know that are very useful:

1. Take in a divided doses to assurea better absorption.
2. Avoiding taking with fluids-water and oil don't mix so take them with as little water as possible.
3.Take with a digestive enzyme lipase(reduces fish burp).
4. Take take with fiber supplements and high fiber foods(may bind with fiber and not be absorbed by the body).
5. And you can't get enough Omega-3 from just eating fish; this fat should be supplemented.
6. Some common supplements for EFAs are:Fish Oil, Flax Seed Oil, Evening Primrose Oil and Borage Oil.
