It is true.
Results can be seen within 1 week
(I have watched my ex-s youngest boy with what appeared to be impending ADHD improve over the course of a week with fish oil supplementation and deteriorate just as quickly without them).
Better attention
Better answers
Better memory
(oooh - reminds me! Time to oil my brain!)

I've looked into that a little bit because I'm bipolar. From what I found out, omega-3 (fish oil) can work as a natural mood stabilizer and is just as effective as lithium. I haven't tried it yet so I'm not really sure how long it takes to kick in.

I don't b/c it depends on how pure the fish is and if it has high Mercury levels in it and to be perfectly honest with you, too much of anything is bad for you whether than good for you...ever hear the old san too much of a good thing is bad, well it was true. It can cause your face to break out and some cases cause boils

It is true... It is rich in omega-3 oils, which keep the brain healthy and stimulate other areas.
