Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Stacie, I heard an indepth discussion on this last weekend on NPR. The doctor stated that fish oil was safe for children however, he warned that some brands contain mercury based on the lack of purification of the fish oil. I think he mentioned a brand "Nordic Something or another" but being 46 I can't remember anything past two hours ago - smiles!!!!! Subject: Could someone give me some info on fish oilTo: AutismBehaviorProblems Date: Friday, January 9, 2009, 9:49 AM I think I seen somewhere that giving fish oil to children with Autism could help them? Is this true and can it be given to young kids? My son is 5! Thanks!StacieSent via BlackBerry by AT & T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I think it's Nordic Naturals CLO (Cod Liver Oil) or Green Pastures...

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Nordic naturals is the only oil that my OBGYN would allow me to take when pregnant. I have preterm labor and fish oil is supposed to help. He independly tested a wide variety of fish oils and the nordic naturals where the only one that contained no mercury or extremely small traces. The doctor only worked with preterm patients so fish oil was part of his standard practice so he had to make sure that it was pure or have a chance of getting sued.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Nordic narurals has their cod liver oil indipendantly tested by different labs for purity. Many company's test their products themselves. Also Nordic Naturals contains vitamin A and D sourced from the fish themsleves, not added in. Fish in the Arctic have these vitamins naturally. That is why they dont give an exact amount or either vitamin A or D but an approximate. Any CLO that gives an exact amount is adding these vitamins to their product. Krill oil is also becoming popular as a source of EFA's as they naturally contain very little contaminants. The bigger the fish the bigger the exposure. Thats why tuna is limited during pregancies.Shellfish is another one that is easily contaminated due to their way of filtering to eat. 39 and Mom to threeTasha 22 ooops..new Mommy ( Grammy to Kyri 18/m)Casey-Mae 14..sweet as pieElijah 2 1/2..

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Stacie, I would also make sure if your child is allergic, that the ingredients in the CLO do not contain something that your child shouldn't have, such as soy, etc. From: stacie <hawkie6aol (DOT) com>Subject: Could someone give me some info on fish oilTo: AutismBehaviorProbl emsyahoogroups (DOT) comDate: Friday, January 9, 2009, 9:49 AM I think I seen somewhere that giving fish oil to children with Autism could help them?
