Tracey111 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 When I first read about fish/flax oil, I saw benefit in the Omega 3s. I THINK I RECALL reading something about Americans taking in too much of the other omegas???? Is there a specific balance that I need to keep for my son? He gets a lot of flax oil. I am actually writing b/c his ADHD is acting up more than ever before...but tics remain under control. Does anyone know if there is a delicate balance I need to keep with these Omegas? Thanks.

crazy Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Tracey~ I wish I could help with your question, but I have no idea. I was wondering if you can share what the benefits are of using Omega 3? Does it help for tic reduction or just the ADD? I read all the time that it is beneficial to take but never read why.

Chemar Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Tracey it really varies depending on diet as to what others are being taken in. Flaxseed has some 6 and 9 in it so not just pure omega 3 we used to balance as much as possible but since my son's autoimmune dx with the Crohn's we keep the omega 3 highest as it is anti-inflammatory and limit 6 as it promotes the inflammatory response Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
