Is it possible that fish oil make add worse (attention deficit disorder)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If rancid, maybe: If you use a fish oil product that has gone rancid, it will be pro-inflammatory and possible harmful. Also if it contains heavy metals, it could worsen the condition. Research the companies and choose a brand that is pure, fresh, potent, sustainably harvested, etc. Store yours in the freezer when you get it.
