Dyspraxy, dyslexy and hyperactivity are behavioural disorders commonly unknown by the average people. These disorders affect 7% of school-aged children around the world with much more frequency among boys. ADHD(Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) or DDA in Spanish, is seen in the child as the hyperactivity, inattentiveness, impulsiveness, and restlessness. Briefly,. ADHD children often do not do well in school. Therefore, the way the child responds to his academic difficulties can contribute to inappropriate social behavior.
Dyslexy presents a real problem for the young student. In fact, he often finds difficulty in learning how to read, write, make out letters and words, memorize multiplication tables and the alphabet. Phonetics and hearing are sometimes very poor and the dyslexian child has a difficulty to express himself. In serious cases, we can also see a deafness and a reduction in sight accutness.
Dyspraxy constitutes a supplementary disability of dyslexy. The child with dyspraxy has real problems of motor coordination. Simple daily movements like catching a ball or keep the balance are practically impossible.
Scientific studies show that O-3 can be revealed as benefitial for children who suffer ADHD. DHA-based (decosahexaenoic) supplements have clearly shown that this fatty acid improves motor disorders, school learning and correct the vision significantly, particularly to the adaptation to darkness since it´s a constituent part of the eye retina and the nervous cell membranes, the neurons.
