Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 Hi This is the first time I have posted a message to this group - although I read everything! My name is Alison and I am the mum of a three year old boy diagnosed with autism. His speech developed normally until he reached about eighteen months old. Then it stalled until he was about two and a half ( he had quite a large collection of single words but didn't string them together), at which time he regressed to saying virtually nothing. We have implemented various dietry interventions and supplements and his language is returning. Recently I started him on Ekimo 3 fish oil (5mls per day). Within a very short period his speech developed markedly - he was saying new words every day and once or twice even strung words together. I then read that Eye-Q was getting good results and changed him to this. he gets three 5 ml teaspoons per day. Since starting the Eye-Q I have noticed a marked decrease in his speech again. I cannot understand why this should be the case. Does anyone have any experience of these two fish oils or have any idea why using Eye-Q would appear to lead to less speech than using Eskimo 3? Is it the case that results take longer to see with Eye-Q? Any thoughts or advice is appreciated. Thanks. Alison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
