We are going to be doing this as soon as it arrives. I am also going to see what happens with Tom on them as he is dyslexic. I will post my results for anyone who's interested or has wondered about trying it themselves. I welcome any constructive, positive comments, questions, and / or additional info you may have on the topic.

The LCP Solution: The Remarkable Nutritional Treatment for ADHD, Dyslexia and Dyspraxia
(LCP, stands for long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids).
Authors: B. Jacqueline Stordy, PhD and Malcolm J. Nicholl. Publisher: Ballantine
Reviews:
Edward Hallowell, co-author with John T. Ratey of "Driven to Distraction," one of the best books ever written about ADHD:
"What higher praise can I offer than to say that this book got me to try the LCP solution on myself and my family members? Of course, we need more research into the whole topic of nutrition and the brain before we can draw definitive conclusions, but this book offers a most persuasive, and potentially dramatically helpful, approach to improving the lives of people who have ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia. This is an excellent book, presenting a fascinating idea."

Christiane Northrup, MD, author of the best-selling "Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom":
"Several years ago I began researching the effects of one of the LCPs known as DHA and was astounded by the well-documented link between this essential fat and brain health. Ever since, I've told every pregnant woman I've met to start taking this stuff ASAP! The LCP Solution contains everything you need to know about how to achieve brain health through proper dietary supplementation with LCPs. This book is must reading not only for those suffering from ADHD and related disorders, but also for everyone interested in optimal brain health at an age."

Available at Amazon.com in 90 caps.
I purchased 180 caps from webvitamins.com $29.14 Total with s/h.Amazon does carry the 250 ml liquid flavored with lemon / lime for children.
Just a little “googling” will give you TONS of info on these. Some other brands people have used are “Nordic Naturals” and “Carlson’s” but “Efamol” is the one formulated by Dr. Stordy, the author of the book.
