Jacqueline Stordy. She reports on the studies done in universities in 3 or 4 different countries in which they looked at LCPs which is short for "Long-Chain-Polyunsaturated something". These LCPs are also known as Omega-3 fatty acids. They found that dyspraxia is caused by a deficiency of these LCPs and the person can also have ADD, eczema, visual acuity problems, and asthma. It's a very important book and Barnes & Noble usually has it. Good luck! Tara 01-18-04, 01:45 PM It is a great book Dr Hallowell has his reccomendation on the front if the book too.

Jacqueline Stordy, explains some of the research at various universities around the world, using Omega-3 fatty acids. They found a strong connection between a deficiency of these fats and dyspraxia (or apraxia), dry skin, asthma, visual acuity problems, and ADD. Linda |
