EFALEX liquid 150 ml liquid, 150 ml

For the dietary treatment of attention deficit disorder (ADHS) and the associated difficulty concentrating and learning disorders

Efalex contains a balanced, special combination of fish and evening primrose oil, which are rich in long-chain, polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids).
There is evidence that patients with ADHS and the associated difficulty in learning and concentrating may have a deficiency in polyunsaturated fatty acids. This deficiency can arise from reduced activity of the enzyme required for the conversion of dietary fatty acids into the specific long-chain fatty acids. In addition, our diet, even through the consumption of sufficient amounts of fatty sea fish and vegetable oils, does not provide enough omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids to compensate for this deficiency.

Efalex provides:
Specific long-chain, polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are important building blocks of nerve cell membranes and fatty acids that influence the transmission of information between nerve cells.

The evening primrose oil in Efalex is extracted from special evening primrose seeds, which, through years of careful selection and cultivation, have a naturally elevated gamma-linolenic acid content (33% more than conventional evening primrose oil). This precious oil is extracted from the seeds of the evening primrose using a particularly gentle process, preserving the long-chain, polyunsaturated fatty acids in their natural form. The fish oil contained in Efalex is carefully selected for its docosahexaenoic acid content. It comes from natural fish stocks and, due to its origin and gentle processing, guarantees the highest quality and purity.

Recommended dosage:
Children aged 2-5 years: 2 teaspoons (10 ml) daily
Adults and children aged 5 and over: 4 teaspoons (20 ml) daily

Depending on the intensity of the symptoms, this dosage can be maintained or reduced by half after 3 months. Efalex liquid is taken with a meal and can be consumed half in the morning and half in the evening.
