    EFA malabsorption

    Other than taking Lipase enzyme, is there anything I can take or do to improve absorption of Omega 3s/EFAs?

    Fish oils. I have also been taking Omega 7s from Sea Buckthorn oil.

    I remember my doctor instructing me to take fish oil with a fatty meal to help absortion. Taking the oils on an empty stomach is not recommended.
