I'm just wondering if you have gotten any feed back on this.

For a very short time between when my daughter was diagnosed with ADD and when I started the prescribed medication I tried the Omega 3 supplements. I did see a subtle difference in her behavior.

We are currently in a trail period of the Medication Adderall, but I hope before I make the commitment to keep her on this drug to try the vitamins again.

When I asked my daughter if she felt any difference while on the adderall she said she could think clearer than in the past, but thought she had been thinking clearer for a couple of weeks now. I think the Omega 3 did help and maybe enough help for my daughter.

I'm still undecided and we will see.

Keep us posted on your search.
