In reply to Any research on ADHD and fish oil?, posted by hok on December 5, 2002, at 21:40:38
> I have atypical depression that's comorbid with moderate ADD symptoms. Anybody know of any substantial research on fatty acids for ADD?
Dr Basant Puri who is a lecturer in Psychiatry in London University and the author of several books has done work on this topic.I met him at the Association of European Psychiatrists meeting in Sweden in May.He said that high EPA versions of omega-3 can be useful in ADHD.That would suggest the use of a version such as Omegabrite.Incidentally he told me he prescribes fish oil every day in his clinic for different conditions becase it really works.
