Oh wait, are DHA and EPA types of Omega-3? If they are i'm an idiot, but i was thinking that Omega-3 oils were converted in the body to EPA and DHA. The reason i ask is cuz i'm mostly taking just flax oil now (not much fish oil) and it says the amount of omega-3 but not DHA and EPA (probably because there is none of that in it as such). So i was wondering how much omega-3 (what percentage or whatever) was converted into DHA and EPA. Thanks..
