has anyone else seen the Daily Mail today? there is an article on page 7 about trials with eye q again this time with teenagers. DS8 is taking eye q and has really helped with concentration. my sister has a 14 year old who after being really good at school seems to be having a down patch to say the least. I know this is normal but its really stressing out my sister, has anyone else seen results from fish oil with terrible teens?

Not personally but I have been keeping an eye on the fish oil craze for a while now. Durham have a website with all their trials that have used fish oil on it. Have a look at \link{http://www.durhamtrial.org/default.aspx?pid=212\their site}as it does mention Greenfield school.

It's in the Mirror too. What is eye q smooth? Is it capsules or liquid as I don't think my son would like swallowing capsules and I think I should get some of this for him.
Thanks

my Ds takes the smooth. it looks a bit like frube yoghurts in a sachet. you snip off the end and they gobble it up. DS thinks its a treat that has been going on for a year now, even says thank you sometimes!! obviousy does not know its got anything to do with fish!

if you get them, get from boots as seem to always be on 3 for 2
