Nordic Naturals. Inc.. a leading supplier offish oil and essential fatty acid nutritional supplements, announced today the results of a successful pilot trial that showed beneficial effects of essential fatty acids (EFAs) on language and learning skills in cliildren with autism and Asperger's syndrome. The study, completed in 2004. was conducted by Louise Patrick, a licensed speech and language pathologist, and Ronald Salik. MD at a pediatric clinic in Arizona. A report of the pilot trial can be found in the Januan /February 2005 issue of Aufism-Asperger 's Digest.
The 3-month open-label study provided 18 children, ranging from 3 to 10 years of age. with daily supplemental EFAs in the form of Complete Omega™, a fish oil-based EFA product from Nordic Naturals. Complete Omega (ProEFA™ in the professional line) is a combination of omega-3 EFAs from purified fish oil and omega-6 EFAs from purified borage oil. The children were evaluated for increases in language ability by stud}- investigators on day "0" and day "90" of supplementation: an adult who was familiar with the child also conducted an evaluation at day "45." Language and learning skills were assessed using the Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills.
All of the children displayed significant increases in their language and learning skills after supplementation with Complete Omega. Statistical analysis, which was completed at the University of Arizona, demonstrated that the increase in scores from day 0 to day 90 in each of the 8 areas measured had high statistical significance. The investigators also noted the importance offish oil purity and of beginning with the lowest possible dose for this population.
Ms. Patrick observed. "We feel that the impressive results of this study support the importance for design and implementation of future studies using larger sample size and placebo-controlled formats."
Patrick is a clinician and researcher focusing on children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Salik is the Medical Director of the Children's Emergency Center at Tucson Medical Center in Tucson.
Nordic Naturals, founded by husband-and-wife team Joar and Michele Opheim. is working to set exacting standards for freshness, purity, and taste in omega EFA supplements.

He serves as the founding editor of NaturalNews.com and the lab science director of an internationally accredited (ISO 17025) analytical laboratory known as CWC Labs. There, he was awarded a Certificate of Excellence for achieving extremely high accuracy in the analysis of toxic elements in unknown water samples using ICP-MS instrumentation. Adams is also highly proficient in running liquid chromatography, ion chromatography and mass spectrometry time-of-flight analytical instrumentation.

Adams is the founder and publisher of the open source science journal Natural Science Journal, the author of numerous peer-reviewed science papers published by the journal, and the author of the world's first book that published ICP-MS heavy metals analysis results for foods, dietary supplements, pet food, spices and fast food. The book is entitled Food Forensics and is published by BenBella Books.
In his laboratory research, Adams has made numerous food safety breakthroughs such as revealing rice protein products imported from Asia to be contaminated with toxic heavy metals like lead, cadmium and tungsten. Adams was the first food science researcher to document high levels of tungsten in superfoods. He also discovered over 11 ppm lead in imported mangosteen powder, and led an industry-wide voluntary agreement to limit heavy metals in rice protein products.
In addition to his lab work, Adams is also the (non-paid) executive director of the non-profit Consumer Wellness Center (CWC), an organization that redirects 100% of its donations receipts to grant programs that teach children and women how to grow their own food or vastly improve their nutrition.
