before and after delivery, it is important
for you and your child"


Answer:

Brain is about 60% fat by weight, DHA(one of the two essential fatty acids that form the fish oil omega 3, for more see my page What is Omega 3 ) is the most abundant fat in the brain.

A lot of the fat found in brain is in the cell membranes of the neurons and in the protective myelin sheath that covers them. The types and proportions of fats in the cell membranes determine how effectively the brain cells communicate. If an adult is deficient in the right fats, his brain does not function optimally, and if a child is deficient, the brain does not develop nor function optimally.

Imagine a child learning math. The act of learning makes the brain to form new neural connections. DHA is needed, especially for the delicate neural synapses which are composed entirely of DHA. This child, like the vast majority of U.S. children, eats almost no Omega-3 fatty acids. What does the brain do? Again, it struggles and finally uses other types of fats, which are the wrong shape: Trans Fats or omega 6.

In order to reach full neurological development, a child’s brain needs lots of omega 3 fats. 60 % of the brain is fat and most of that is DHA, a fat that is a component of omega 3.

If your child doesn’t get enough omega 3 it may never develop its full intelligence and may get some brain disorders like ADHD, depression, bipolarity, etc.

Your child needs omega 3 even before delivery and every day after that. Your best bet is to supplement with fish oil.

If you supply adequate amounts of fish oil for kids, they will react soon to better nutrition. Special care should be taken decreasing the amounts of omega 6. That is, grains in all forms and cereals, for more see my page on Diet, eliminating most junk foods, and increasing the amounts of omega 3 supplements, fruits, vegetables, healthy meat with omega 3, eggs with omega 3, etc.
