Flaxseed oil contains the precursers to Omega 3 oil and Omega 6 too, I guess. As long as your enzymatic pathway is intact so that the Omega 3 is synthesized
from the precursers then you should be OK with it.  If not, then you need to
get the end result (Omega 3) from some other source. Anybody? Is there another
source for Omega 3?

What is wrong with flaxseed oil? I used to take both flaxseed and evening primrose oil, but looking at the primrose, it is mainly omega 6 with a little omega 9, so I can see not using that, but flaxseed is mainly omega 3 with some 6 and 9, according to the label on what I am using.

Reason I'm asking is being allergic to iodine, I can't take fish oil. (Also no seafood, no ocean fish, no sea salt or complete mineral supplements, no kelp, obviously, etc). I did purchase some molecularly distilled fish oil, as I was told that would not contain iodine, but I've been too scared to take it. The consequences of me getting too much iodine are not fun, and often require use of cortisone/prednisone to get stopped. Somehow, having to use steroids seems to me worse than not getting enough omega 3, particularly as I already have some osteoporosis and a lot of osteopenia. I'm not sure how to deal with this.

Reducing inflammatory omega-6 oils and increasing EPA and DHA (not flax oil) reduces this kind of inflammation.
