\n ADHD
\n <\/a>
\n , commonly associated with children, is one of the most difficult conditions to be identified. With the advancement in the knowledge of this condition, it is now possible for doctors and the clinicians to diagnose this condition more precisely. However, there is no single test and the experts are working towards identifying a conclusive test for
\n
\n ADHD
\n <\/a>
\n . For
\n
\n
\n ADHD
\n <\/a>
\n treatment
\n <\/strong>
\n , doctors use a combination of medicines and behavior therapy. Nowadays, many parents are beginning to prefer
\n
\n natural medicines for ADHD
\n <\/strong>
\n treatment for their children.\n <\/p>\n

\n The Connection Between Omega 3s and ADHD
\n <\/h3>\n

\n There are many possible causes that have been linked to the occurrence of ADHD. One of such possible reasons is a low level of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in the body, especially
\n
\n omega-3
\n <\/a>
\n fatty acids. These fatty acids are called essential fatty acids since the human body cannot synthesize these and hence have to be taken in through the diet.\n <\/p>\n

\n Experts have linked this with different behavioral disorders including ADHD. Some clinical studies have also concluded that low levels of
\n
\n omega-3
\n <\/a>
\n fatty acids are linked to the occurrence of ADHD.\n <\/p>\n

\n Though the exact mechanism of this relation is not clear, it is postulated that these fatty acids, especially DHA, are a component of the membranes and hence these are crucial for maintenance of structural and functional integrity of the brain and central nervous system. Experts hold the opinion that at the time of birth, the brain weight is 70 percent of an adult brain, 15 percent brain growth happens during pregnancy and the remaining 15 percent grows during the preschool years.\n <\/p>\n

\n Hence, it is important that pregnant and nursing women consume the required amount of
\n
\n omega-3
\n <\/a>
\n fatty acids. It is also proposed that intake of these fatty acids during preschool years may have a beneficial effect in prevention of ADHD.\n <\/p>\n

\n The Benefits of Omega 3s on ADHD
\n <\/h3>\n

\n Scientists have conducted clinical trials with supplementation of
\n
\n omega-3 fatty acids
\n <\/a>
\n in the diet to study its benefits on neurological conditions including ADHD. The sources of omega-3 fatty acids used in these studies were flax oil, olive oil and
\n
\n fish oil
\n <\/a>
\n . All of these studies reported that
\n
\n supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids in the diet
\n <\/a>
\n resulted in an improvement in the ADHD condition. One clinical study compared the relative benefits of olive oil, flax oil and
\n
\n fish oil
\n <\/a>
\n . It was reported that
\n
\n fish oil
\n <\/a>
\n was most effective of these three options studied.\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n
