We started giving Charis Eye-Q sachets twice a day 2 months ago. They're brilliant. Her dry skin patches have disappeared. I read that the Government is to give them free to children of school age after the pilot scheme in Durham showed that the kids achieved higher grades than normal (omega oils are said to aid concentration too). My friend is a tutor for children with Aspergers and autism and the children she teaches take eye-Q too.

Think my nephew was taking some kind of Omega tablets, I'm sure my brother saw an improvement in his behaviour and concentration.

That's good to hear, Jo. I just worry that because we don't eat a lot of fish, that Charis isn't getting enough omega oils in her diet. Wouldn't mind taking them myself!

my youngest daughter has ADHD, her doctor recommended Omega 3, but it's not available on prescription even though the benefits are recognised.
It's so expensive that there's no way I can afford to buy the recommended monthly dose :?

Might not be easy for you where you live but we can buy very cheaply in supermarkets (their own brand) both me and hubby take it for arthritis we also take glucosamine and the swelling has disapeared from my finger joints :)

That's just it, it's too dear. Why is everything that's good for you so dear? :?
