those who use fish oil | ADHD Information

i've just been using efalex - so far so good.. I just started using Flaxseed oil for my son. salmon oil and Omega 3,6,9 didn't make much difference. I am hoping this will. He still takes his meds but won't now that summer is here.

My son's naturopathic docotr actually took him off the Flax Seed Oil that we had been put on by an acupuncturist....something about flax seed oil needing all the right co-factors for it to do anything...was very complicated.  We are now on borage seed oil, but most folks seem to use evening primrose oil.

How long did you try the omegas for?  It can take upwards of 12 weeks to see any improvement.....and as long as you are using the right doses.

Just get a bottle of fish oil from walmart or something and try the recomended dose. It works a little to calm me down.

I have listed the doses we were put on, by our ND, on the Alternative Board under the thread Omega.

Our ND recommends Oakmont Lab brand (This product contains no sugar, starch, artificial preservatives or colors. They also weed out all PAs)
