What is the best way to get my essential fatty acids?

[mr. jp]

It is a confusing area. One thing I wonder about is if I have to consume alpha-linoic acid and linoic acid, or if derivatives will do.

And no, I'm not going to eat fish. :)

You don't need to eat fish to get EFA's. There are plenty of vegetable and grain sources.

This is a great page from a vegan website. (http://www.vegansociety.com/html/food/nutrition/e_fatty_acids.php)

I know very little about supplements, I prefer to get nutrients from food, so I'll leave that to someone else.

I take two of the Atkins Essential Oils (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001X3F3K/ref=pd_rvi_gw_1/002-9440524-6285656?ie=UTF8) softgels daily.
