Does anybody find a particular ratio helpful for them? I’m looking for something to dampen inflammation. I know some people say we should only have EPA. Do others agree?
I doubt that EPA/DHA ration can do anything noticeable for inflammation...

Hemp oil is better to use than fish oil which is often rancid, more expensive and worse for the environment.

This is also an interesting product:

There are a couple of other SPM products that exist. Maybe you can find one of those in the UK.Oh, I’d like to try that! The reviews are interesting. Doesn’t look like it’s available in the U.K. though.
