Omega 3’s???? | ADHD Information

Okay, I know I am happy with the postings today but I have lots of questions.  You can tell with this forum when someone has had a bad day!!!LOL~  I have heard lots about the Omega 3's.  Can someone give me some information on these and do they really work.  I've been told that even a non ADD person can benefit intellectually from these.  I won't go into all of it here but you can read my other post today to hear my story lately (Roller Coaster).  I will try anything, Omega 3's , caffeine, Attend, anything.  Does anyone have any suggestions and what is the best Omega's to buy.  I am stupid about this.  What am I looking for? eg.mg's,EPA,DHA?  I have a bottle that I purchased at Sams Club that says 1 capsule contains 1000 mg of Natual Fish OIl Concentrate, 180mg of EPA, 120 MG DHA. It says to take it 3 times a day.  Is this good?  All it talks about is vascular health?  Please advise this ignorant person!!!  

Lynn, you might want to check over in the alternatives forum.  There is a ton of info over there about Omega's.  Good luck.

 

 

We buy Nordic Naturals omega 3 from the organic food store.
My son is 9 and he gets about 1 1/2 tsp. a day.  It took several months for us to see a difference in him.  But he has been taking it for almost 6 months and we believe it has really helped.  We also don't allow him to have red dye and limit many of the foods with lots of perservatives and additives.

Did you check over on the alternatives board?  There is a really long thread on Omega's.

 

anyone else have any suggestions?
