Fish oil supplements could help cool and control the anger of children with behavioural problems,says a new research.Researchers studied behavioural problems and emotional difficulties,including autism of 28(10 to 16 years old) studying at Eaton Hall Special School in Norwich and found that they had fewer violent outbursts while taking daily doses of the fatty acids.In the six months prior to the trial,students had 112 angry outbursts which required teachers to physically restrain them.This dropped to 36 during the six- month study,when they were given 'Eye q' supplements alongside healthier school meals.
These capsules,made by Equazen,contain omega-3 and omega-6 evening primrose oil.The biggest impact was on pupils who had been involved in the most violent incidents.The study suggests students become better able to control their anger ,as teachers were less likely to have to intervene to calm them.
Madeleine Portwood, an educational psychologists involved in a study in Durham,had earlier found the supplements significantly improved short-term memory among primary pupils and enhanced achievements in reading and spelling.
