The Dietary Management of Fatty Acid Deficiency in ADHD, Dyslexia,
and Dyspraxia


Nearly 25 years ago, my son was part of a clinical study conducted at the University of Minnesota investigating the symptoms and possible treatment of ADD and ADHD. After the study was completed, it was suggested that he be put on the medication Ritalin. He was, and to our surprise it worked well in shaping him into a normal, young boy for the next couple of years.

I knew little then of the crucial role essential fatty acids (EFA’s) or long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCP’s) play in the proper development of nervous system structure and function. Had I known then what I know now, I would not have chosen the medication route that I did.



"a most persuasive, and
potentially dramatically helpful approach to improving the lives of people who have ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia"

While Ritalin seemed to work for my son, at least on the outside, it was not doing good things for him internally, on a molecular level. But it seemed to be the only “way out” of a very difficult situation at the time.

We had no idea that a better solution would come to the forefront some 20+ years later, and that that solution would be so simple and make so much common sense. But it did.

Essential fatty acids, or any good nutritional guidelines for that matter, were rarely discussed in those days. Everyone it seemed, wanted a “drug” solution. Now, that’s all changing. Studies are being done, individuals are educating themselves, even some doctors are beginning to see that proper nutrition (real food without all the engineered components) is essential to good health and vitality. And equally important, people are beginning to realize that most modern “medicines” do nothing to address causes of health problems, but only treat symptoms. Even in treating symptoms, these “medicines” often carry side effects that can cause other serious health challenges.

Today, a single class of essential nutrients are being investigated like none other, and for good reason. The essential fatty acids (linoleic acid or omega 6, and alpha linolinic acid or omega 3), and especially the omega 3’s are being hailed as modern day health warriors, preventing or working to prevent dozens of ailments ranging from diabetes to heart disease.
