Linoleic Acid Heals Gastritis?

Hey
There is scientific interest in free fatty acids such as linolenic acid (and not linoleic acid!) as an alternative therapy for the treatment of H. Pylori infections. The liposomal form has been shown to penetrate the cell wall of H. pylori and is therefore also interesting for the development of medicines since the liposomal form could transport medicines. However, I think we are still a long way from saying that linoleic acid cures gastritis. With that said, H. Pylori can be a cause of gastritis, but it’s not the only cause.
Food sources of linolenic acid are walnuts, chia seeds, hemp seeds and avocado. As you can see, these foods are rich in fats and might not be ideal. Fats can slow transit time and cause the stomach to produce more stomach acid.
Were you trying to replace salmon as a source of linolenic acid? Or would you like to replace salmon as an omega-3 source?

I would like to have both omega-3 and linoleic in other forms.
Is there such a thing as linoleic oil which I can see drink?
As I am struggling with salmon, can I have it in oil format?
