RE: New here..have some questions about EFA's

[Guest guest]

,

I think you will find that most people use therapeutic doses. My son is 2.5

we give him 2 - caps of NN 3/6/9 and 1 TSP of Arctic Cod Liver Oil - by NN.

It works nicely.

[ ] New here..have some questions about EFA's

Hi. I'm new. My daughter is approx 2.5 and has been diagnoised

with apraxia by her SLP. She is having another evalutation by a

specialist on Monday.

I have started reading the Late Talker book and have some questions

on the supplements.

The book recommends the proEFA by Nordic Naturals. Because of her

age, I was wondering if anyone has tried the Omega 3-6-9 junior in

either softgels or liquid or if they are the same specs as the

ProEFAS...here are the specs for each:

soft gels:

Ingredients: purified deep sea fish oil (from anchovies and

sardines), soft gel capsule (gelatin, water, glycerin, natural lemon

oil), borage oil, natural lemon oil, d-alpha tocopherol, rosemary

extract

Each 2 soft gel serving provides:

EPA: 135 mg

DHA: 90 mg

Other Omega-3s: 58 mg

GLA: 33 mg

OA: 80 mg

Vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol): 15 IU

Liquid:Ingredients: purified deep sea fish oil (from anchovies and

sardines), borage oil, natural lemon oil, d-alpha tocopherol,

rosemary extract

Each 1/2 teaspoon provides:

EPA: 338 mg

DHA: 225 mg

Other Omega-3s: 143 mg

GLA: 83 mg

OA: 200 mg

Vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol): 15 IU

The liquid seems to be higher in everything and was wondering if I

went that route, should I give her 1/4 tea instead of the

recommended 1/2 tea.

Thanks for your help.

I use a safety pin and pick a hole in the cap. Then use a syrenge and dump

the liquid in it. Shoot it in his mouth and it works well for us. You could

also draw up some juice with it, so they wont taste it. They just think it

is a shot of juice.

I agree that you are looking for the right therapeutic dose for your

child. It's different for different kids. You want to find the dose

that provides the most positive reaction without negative side

effects. At VERY high doses (6 adult EFA and 3 adult EPA capsules

per day), my son got hyper and would repeat himself two or three

times in one breathe before we could respond to what he was saying.

Right now, he takes 2 EFA and 2 EPA per day to maintain his current,

excellent speech. My baby, 19 months old, is showing signs of

apraxia, and we are giving him 2 tsps. of the liquid Omega 3-6-9. He

hasn't had the same language spurt that did, but it could be

the age, too. ( was already 2-3/4 when we started the fish

oils.)
