I hope this doesn't turn into another miracle cure. Fish oil doesn't sound too appitizing.
Fish oil is good for quite a range of stuff anyway, whether it "cures" neurological conditions is questionable, but it certainly won't do any harm, and if they start prescribing it on the NHS well, bonza  :wink:
Fish oil is availabe in pill form, and is good for many things such as depression and reducing the risk of heart disease. I don't think it's a "cure" for neurological conditions at all, even if it has other health benefits.
I take fish oil as well as CoQ10 and multivitamins - great for general health but i'm still an aspie.
EFAs in fish oil can be very helpful in stimulating/speech language development in children with speech disorders like apraxia. I can say this because Dylan went from severe apraxia to now mild apraxia due to it.
That's marvellous, Mish  :smile: - thank goodness it's too late for the pharmaceutical industry to patent Cod Liver Oil and sell it back to us at $100 a spoonful.
