Fish oil is supposed to help.Health Question & Answer

Hi Debbie. There is a growing body of scientific research that indicates that the omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil (EPA and DHA) may be helpful in managing the symptoms associated with ADD. Here are a few quotes from the medical literature:

1) "In double-blind, randomized, controlled trials, DHA and EPA combinations have been shown to benefit attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD)..."

2) "Increasing evidence supports n-3 fatty acid (omega-3 fats) supplementation for patients with psychiatric disorders, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder."

3) "The findings of this small pilot study suggest supplementation with high-dose EPA/DHA concentrates may improve behavior in children with ADHD."

I hope you find this information helpful. Best wishes and good luck.Health Question & Answer
