you know, I haven't been taking the Omega 3 since I got pregnant - they make me nauseous. I just take my prenatals daily. I try to eat healthy(doesn't always happen) but i do try. I didnt take any Omega 3 with my other kids and their fine, so oh well.
While all children with ADHD are not deficient in omega-3 fatty acids, we believe that the addition of omega-3 fatty acids to the diet may be important for some ADHD children.
In fact, studies show that children whose treatment program includes only medication, educational and psychological therapy continue to be at high risk for vandalism, petty crime, frequency of alcoholic intoxication, and possession of marijuana.
I did a quick search of the literature, and there is little proof that Omega-3 helps with myelin repair, although there is research in this area. Omega-3 and Omega-6 seem to be very important for the DEVELOPING BRAIN AND NERVOUS SYSTEM. Much of the evidence to date has to do with prenatal and children's diets and consumption of to little Omgega-3 and excess Omega-6. The body can produce Omega-9 given a balanced diet.
Cooked garlic has no medicinal effect whatsoever -- it must be used raw. And again, a recommendation has been made to use an unapproved pharmaceutical product, piracetam, that's illegal to sell in the US except by buying it illegally over the internet. In fact, none of the supplements mentioned so far will help with cholesterol except guggul. Now, shopping at GNC is your first no-no, mammo.
I currently bought some kids gummy omega 3 vitimins that I take daily and I take prenatal for the childs health in the future. Oh that would be great a cookbook to follow. I also think my hormones all all out of wack but I can see a different by taken the fish oil for a month. I am less stressed cut out the caffien whic is hard for me cuz I love pepsi.
I take one to fight babybrain. Omegas are stripped from myelin shealths during pregnancy and since they act as lubricant in the conduction of, essentially thoughts, our thought process is slowed.
I didn't ask my doc about it yet but it does clear up fog in my brain.
Rather, we want to increase long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (from fish oils) to reduce the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids in the food. So, rather than add a supplement to a food, you are better served to feed a food that already has increased omega-3 fatty acids (specifically, EPA and DHA), and has a ratio of n-6 to n-3 of between 10:1 and 5:1.
At the suggestion of a friend, I recently started taking Omega 3 fish oil capsules. I am also taking high blood pressure medication. Over the past six months my medication has been changed four times as I've had a host of side effects from each medication. Unfortunately, each side effect would occur in conjunction with some other change in my health/lifestyle so it was hard to detect or pinpoint what the cause of my problem was. This recent condition is no exception.
What brand of Omega 3's are you using? I have been taking just the Kroger brand Omega 3's with fish oil concentrate. Should I maybe look at the health food store for some that are especially for pregnancy? Thanks!
