Eating a lot of fish also brings some risks from microplastic and other pollution, especially if you don't pay attention to where it comes from.

Fish are famous for spoiling quickly, but nuts are not.

You you can just buy cold pressed flax oil and supplement with that. ~30 USD for ~1L iirc and it has an absolute assload of ALA (omega3)

Hemp seed oil is a good one for omega6 but usually people get enough 6 from diet and 3 is the one we need to boost to get the 3:6 ratio up

ALA must be converted to EPA and DHA, which it does at less than 10% efficiency, so you'd need to consume an assload of it, too. Your best bet is still fish(oil).

I like flax oil, but it spoils very quickly. I have trouble going through 250ml before it goes rancid.
