Re: Not hearing from doc to confirm start of ProEFA

[Guest guest]

Hey Amber!

If you go to http://www.apraxia.cc there is a link to order it from. It was

$22 and included shipping. It came to us in Hawaii in 2 days! It is

a bottle of 90 (1 a day). Nordic Naturals is the company. I would

not order any other brand. Sorry about the doctor - you just have to

keep calling and bugging. The squeaky wheel gets the oil!

If you call the toll free number, there is a formula especially for kids. It is

called " Ultimate Omega; Children's DHA formula " The capsules are very small and

are strawberry flavored. My son thinks they are candy.

There is no magic cure but the EFA's certainly help. Our SLP is so excited

about my son's progress (he went from no sounds at all to full sentences with

correct grammar, syntax, verb tense, in two months) that I am not sure if I will

tell her or not. I know that many professionals feel that using supplements is

a big hoax. Even if your child doesn't make progress developmentally with EFAs,

it is a great nutritional supplement.

Is there any specific brand of ProEFA or is there only one or what?

Any suggestions would be nice. You guys have got me excited about

starting this. I will of course not get my hopes too high, I know

there is no magic cure.

I saw these tablets and wondered if i could use those instead of the

oil capsules. I did see that the formula was not the same (less

DHA). How old is your son Tricia? Do you only give him one/day? Does

anyone have any thoughts on which one to use?

Thanks, Traci mom to Kennedy

I would tell her. Think of all the other children who would benefit if she

became a 'fan'. Don't forget to compliment her on her effective therapy

though!

Well I finally got the ok from her doc. I ordered two bottles of

Nordic Naturals. That was before I got the post about the Strawberry

pills. No turning back now. Thanks for the input. I really

appreciate it!

God Bless,

Amber
