GLA already looks like something beneficial to take...
is a product like this the best way to go about things?
ALA, SDA and GLA all seem to make EPA. i'm not sure how they are calculating their EPA number, only from the SDA in the oil initially or the SDA that will also derive from the ALA (possibly GLA as well, or maybe the cycle is totally different?) they reference something, more stuff that will probably confuse me.
i guess i would end up taking a tablespoon...
if this is at all legit...
lots of other "lost nutrients" i have to handle:
-carnitine
-creatine
-lipoic acid
-carnosine (possibly?)
-b vitamins in general, vegans seem to have high homocysteine if i remember (and there's lots to remember)
