Doing a Karen disclaimer here:  I am not a doctor and suggest you check with
your health care professional before beginning any alternative therapy.

That said, don't know why not Jennifer.

 We started giving it to Molly a few years ago.  :-)  Jim has taken EFA as
long as Alex has (he's the guinea pig and has always taken a supplement for
3-4 months before we started giving it to Alex) and I take it occasionally.
Theory is if you well insulate those brain nerves they are protected against
damage from different diseases, perhaps aging deterioration etc. Of course,
those with poor myelination to begin with it will help shore up the gaps and
holes of coverage.
(think a live wire that loses it's protective plastic covering--not good.
the brain nerves are the wire and the plastic coating in the myelin. the EFA
adds to the covering of the brain wire).
