Summary
BellaOnline's Nutrition editor Moss Greene says a healthy balance of omega-3 and omegs-6 fatty acids may aid in the treatment of ADHD and other behavioral problems, claiming children's overconsumption of the wrong kinds of fats, like trans-fats, may contribute to the development of behavioral problems in the first place.

Details
- Most American kids get far too many unhealthy trans fatty acid oils in their diet and not nearly enough healthy omega-3 fish oils and omega-6 oils from whole grains.
- A recent study in England reported that children with behavioral, social and learning difficulties who took a high quality omega-3 fish oil supplement for only six months tested more than a year higher in reading skills and six months higher in spelling.
- For the cleanest, most comprehensive fish oil supplement, I recommend www.omega-3.us.
- CHILD ADHD TREATMENTThe same researchers, in a previous study, found that omega-3 supplementation helped in the management of ADHD and dyslexia.
- And studies are now being conducted to test if an optimum dietary omega-6/omega-3 ratio would have a positive effect on dyspraxia and autism conditions as well as being an effective child ADHD treatment.
- My recommendation for healthy Omega 6 supplementation can be found at www.feel-better.info.
- These fatty acids are the structural component of all cell membranes and healthy cell membranes are necessary for optimum cellular absorption of nutrients as well as the efficient elimination of cellular toxins.
- Without a healthy balance of omega-3 and omega-6 oils in their diet, children can end up with trillions of starved, constipated cells and the complications that go along with that condition.
- Tiredness, by the way, is the first symptom of all chronic diseases.
- In recent years, much scientific research links the imbalance of healthy omega-3 and omega-6 oils to a wide range of learning and behavior problems in children, including ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia and autistic spectrum disorders.
- To prevent problems, start by eliminating from your child's diet the major source of trans fats, which is processed foods made with partially hydrogenated vegetable oils.
