Can 1g of flaxseed oil supplement harm an 9 year old child?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Flaxseed oil: There is no official recommended dose of flaxseed oil in children.Generally 1tsp is given to toddlers, 2 tspns to school age children and 1 tablespoon (3 tspns) once a child is over 75 lbs.However, as always it is very important to discuss alternative meds and dietary supplements with your md, before using them.Flaxseed could interfere with absorption of medications.
