Mass medication with Omega 3 would wipe out global fish stocks

Our children need their fatty acids, but after we have fed our stocks
to cattle and pigs there simply aren't enough left

The more it is tested, the more compelling the hypothesis becomes.
Dyslexia, ADHD, dyspraxia and other neurological problems seem to be
associated with a deficiency of Omega 3 fatty acids, especially in the
womb. The evidence of a link with depression, chronic fatigue syndrome
and dementia is less clear, but still suggestive. None of these
conditions is caused exclusively by a lack of these chemicals, or can
be entirely remedied by their application, but it's becoming pretty
obvious that some of our most persistent modern diseases are, at least
in part, diseases of deficiency.
