> Great question! I want to understand this too. I have thought about giving my daughter fish oil. She`s a teen, and her diet is really not very healthy. Nordic Naturals.. the straight oil variety, would be my first choice.. but now I`m wondering...

From what I have read, some people react badly to pure DHA by becoming more depressed. However, pure EPA has been shown to reduce depression. OmegaBrite is the only product I know of that is composed to increase the ratio of EPA/DHA to 7/1. Most other fish oil products have, at most, a 3/2 ratio. DHA makes its way into the brain more readily than EPA and can be derived from conversion of EPA, so the ratio in the brain is skewed towards DHA when compared to blood levels. It is my belief that the less DHA in the fish oil, the better.

Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega fish oil contains EPA 650mg and DHA 450mg

OmegaBrite contains 350mg of EPA and 50mg of DHA.
