We've had quite a few discussions on the EFA's on the list(s) in the past.
:0)
It's esp important around here because we're not fish eaters.
The one we use is based on organic flax seed oil and organic borage seed
oil.
It contains Omega-3, Omega-6, Omega-9 and Gamma-Linolenic Acid.
(Hubby Jim is the supplement investigator around here and I'm happy to let
him be! lol)
Alex has been taking the above for years. I used to break open a capsule and
put it into his baby cereal/foods. When he got older it was a spread on
toast or mixed in pasta. Now he swallows the capsule.
Alex's regime also includes Co-Q10, vit C and B, beta -carotene, natural E,
Arginine. Those are the am pills.
Dinner time he gets what we call 'big green'. It's a whole food based
multiple vit that contains 63 ingredients: the general vits plus things like
Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Green tea leaf, sprirulina, barley and wheat
grass, bee pollen, Licopene etc. It's quite a list.
The directions call for 3 per day but we only give him one as his diet is
fairly good most of the time.
During illness we also include Echinacea root and increase the Vit C and B.
Which we are doing right now........Alex is fighting an upper respirator
infection. So far no lung involvement and I'm aiming to keep it that
way!!!!!!!
