New trial for ADHD sufferers
Some fatty acids could hold the answers for children suffering from learning
difficulties caused by ADHD - Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

A new study will trial the effects of OMEGA-3 fats on children with the
disability after reports of similar success overseas.

Doctor Natalie Sinn from the University of South Australia says the
year-long study is likely to produce some beneficial results.

"We know that children with ADHD, about a quarter of them have learning
difficulties.

"There is some evidence that they might be able to find benefits in their
reading and writing skills. So we want to assess this in the new trial,"
Doctor Sinn said.

When I appeared on that radio station a couple of years ago you
ridiculed me for some reason. Why is it an acceptable reference site
now, Jan?
