colleenrn Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 What is the best dose of Omegas for children in treating ADD/ADHD? I know that I have read it must be a higher dose than what the "normal" supplement dose is, but I can't find out a dose. Thanks! Colleen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldchiro Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 the best source is oily fish. But the problem, as most parents know, is that children don't like it, so Omega-3 supplements are becoming a popular option. Traditional cod liver oil is not particularly rich in EPA and DHA; it also contains the fat-soluble vitamins A and D, that can be toxic in excess, so high doses are not advisable in the long-term. In a recent survey, it has been proved that About 450-500mg per day combined EPA/DHA is a reasonable target for both adults and children Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
