Dear DSK0564,

All this is indeed fascinating. is going to place an introduction to

EFAs on the http://www.apraxia.cc Web site and many of your questions should be

answered there.

Please keep in touch.

Subject: Pro-EFA vs. Flax Oil

I haven't spent much time on this list, but I'm interested in all the

discussion about ProEFA. My daughter was diagnosed with apraxia when

she was 2 yrs. old. She just turned 3 and is doing fairly well - she

has a vocabulary of 200+ words, puts 3-4 words together and is 6

months behind her age in expressive language. Of course her

articulation is what is holding her back. Anyway - I've been giving

her Flax oil since she was 22 months old because she needed extra fat

in her diet. I didn't know anything about the connections people are

seeing between EFAs and speech. I'm curious to try ProEFA. Will it

provide different EFAs than Flax oil. Is there a specific brand that

is used and any recommendations on where to purchase it. What is a

recommended dosage for a 3 yr old? Thanks for your help, I'm finding

this all very fascinating!!
