Fish oil can boost kids’ performance

Want your child to do better in exams? Well, a daily dose of fish oil could be of help, for a new study has revealed that it makes kids smarter.
Yes, researchers in Britain have carried out the study and found that children who take a dose of fish oil supplement on a regular basis could do better in their exams as it boosts their mind power.

They have based their findings on an analysis of over 3,000 students in Britain who took fish capsules everyday for a period of six months leading up to their exams. The results were compared with students who weren’t part of the program.

The research team found that pupils who took Omega-3 capsules in the year before their exams had better results than those who did not.

The children who continued taking the free supplements got two grades higher in their exams, an average of 17.7 points more, than those who did not take the pills. However, scientists have dismissed the experiment because it did not include a second group of children taking placebo pills.
