Guest guest Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 Hi Dana: Below you don't mention how much of what you are giving to your boys-- how many capsules/tsps are they on for ProEFA and ProEPA? Has it helped with speech? Your question was if you should drop the CLO and just try the ProEFA and ProEPA? Why do you give the CLO? If you could do without it, you could drop it and try just the ProEFA and ProEPA formula and see if it makes a difference. You could keep a diary of gains or losses and that might help you figure it out. If you decide to drop the CLO and do just the ProEFA and ProEPA, I suggest you to try to figure out how much EPA and DHA you will lose with the CLO and adjust the ProEFA or ProEPA so you don't lose ground in the beginning. Below are the amounts for EPA, DHA, and GLA based on formula of 2 ProEFA and 1 ProEPA. ProEFA Two 1000 mg Soft Gels Contain: EPA: 270 mg DHA: 180 mg Other Omega-3s: 115 mg GLA: 66 mg OA: 160 mg Vitamin E: 30 IU ProEPA One 1000 mg Soft Gels Contain: EPA: 425 mg DHA: 100 mg Other Omega-3s: 90 mg Vitamin E: 15 IU HTH, Tina > > > , > > I found this post very interesting. I introduced my two boys to CLO in May of 2007 with immediate results in increased eye contact. However, I did not introduced the Pro EFA and Pro EPA until November of 2007 and they were already on the CLO. So, that changes the whole formula and may have an impact on whether or not they repsond to the fish oil? I wonder if I need to try the ProEFA and ProEPA without the CLO for a time? Thanks for sharing this info. > > Dana > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" I was going to post a question about how to transition off of CLO and onto ProEFA and ProEPA. My son (21 months) is on 1 tsp of CLO and 1tsp of Complete Omega 3.6.9 with no increase in babbling. Ironically, MONTHS ago, I tried him on 1 capsule/day of ProEFA and he immediately (same day) started babbling. Since then, things have changed, supplements changed, doctors changed, and babbling stopped. I want to take him off Nordic Natural's CLO and put him on ProEFA and EPA. How do I figure out how much I'm " losing " in order to not lose ground? Would someone be able to help me with the formula? Thanks so much! I should have just stuck to my guns months ago with the ProEFA. Joanna http://drewsautismdiary.blogspot.com/ > > > > > > , > > > > I found this post very interesting.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Dear Joanna, I do not have much experience as of yet with fish oils. We have started our 17 yr old on them. Cold laser or low level laser is an awesome modality that could help stimulate your sons speech development. It helped our daughter a lot. She is dong great. Still has some issues, but overall is very functional. Check it out drstjernholmal.com is a website you can look at.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Also you may want to look at muscle testing from a qualified practitioner to help you find best dose and product. nne Dektor DC, mother of Lea and chiropractor On Tue, Mar 31, 2009 at 9:13 AM, nne Parimuha <huumom@...> wrote: > Dear Joanna, > I do not have much experience as of yet with fish oils.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 nne, Is a Dr.'s prescrption needed for using Cold laser or low level laser for speech improvements for children? I am definitely interested in learning more about this for my two four year old autistic kids who have developed almost no speech so far.
