Guest guest Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Don't forget.... Trans Fats block the absorbtion of Good fats..... I have indeed learned this the hard way and that is why I do know how aweful transfats are for our kids. They just prevent the body from getting the good fats into their system. In addition, our children have a really tough time getting rid of the transfats and it takes a long time (as much as a year) to excrete them from the body. Janice [sPAM][ ] Re: Fish Oil and Weight Gain Oil is all fat, so this may be why. BUT, humans (especially kids) need fat in their diet at the brain is made of it...) Before taking her off of fish oils, I would seriously cut sugars and unnecessary fats from her diet. Here is a good link: http://www.keepkidshealthy.com/toddler/feeding_your_toddler.html You say she has always been a little chubby... I would look into what you are feeding her to see what caused it in the first place. Hope that helps, Aubrey > > Hello, > > I have a 19 month old girl.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 If you are talking to me my son does not have a heavy gut. He had belly problems, we believe from an allergy. The fish oil had nothing to do with that and he had no weight issues on it. > > > > Please understand something,I reply to these not to be > disrespectful. > > I know my child is different but what he has is actually milder > than > > apraxia but he does share symptom overlap.
