>and omegas?
Omega-3 to -6 ratio is very important. Dietary omega fatty acids are both precursors to longer chained omega acids but they compete for the same enzyme. Meaning if you eat too much of one, you can create a deficiency of the other.

Most people already overdose on omega-6s daily thanks to seed oils (both in relation with omega-3s and in absolute amounts). Like the average person in the west is already eating so much omega-6's that it's impossible to correct it by supplementing omega-3s. The only way is to remove seed oils from the diet completely. And even if you were to chug down fish oil, you'd probably be doing more harm than good since they're still highly unsaturated and prone to oxidation (even more so than omega-6)

So yes. You're completely negating any omega-3 benefits you think you're getting. In fact, you're probably making it worse.
Just get them plain, or in tomato sauce or olive oil (read the label since they still like sneak some in as a "blend")
