You may have to continue experimenting with a brand that agrees with you.
I have posted a few time on the subject (in this forum) if you want to scroll back

Vitamin E is used to stabilize the fish oil because it is oxidizes very quickly.

First, I take Solgar 'Primrose Oil 500mg' softgels once a day and have been doing so for about 6 months now with no problem. Okay, so that's my source of GLA there.

Why are you supplementing with GLA? Do you have a special need? By eating a small amount of steel cut oatmeal per week, you will get all the GLA you need.

It would be best to find a product with EPA/DHA
