“My son is talking now; he’s able to hold a pencil and write his name!” This is the story of a mother’s 9-year-old autistic son.

In July of this year, his mom reached out to one of our coaches, Susy Lopez, asking about the BalanceOil+ (Omega-3 with Polyphenols) that we make available. She had started doing research on the benefits of Omega-3 on children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) but had not found a product she could trust. We first tested her son with our Balance Test to see if he had adequate omega-3 levels. Optimal levels in children should be anywhere from 6 -12%, he tested at 1.7%. Clearly, he was deficient but he’s not alone. Most children and adults in the United States and Canada are below 4%. We started him on the Balance Oil+, a unique blend of Omega-3 and Polyphenols. This pairing enhances the absorption and stability of omega-3s, making sure they reach the cellular level where it’s needed.

After one month on the Balance Oil+, he was able to start making out some words going from non-verbal to verbal. After 2 months, he was putting sentences together, he was even able to alert his mom he had fallen by saying “I’m hurt”. In this last month, he began holding a pencil for the first time and was able to write his name! The family and teachers are overjoyed and impressed with the progress he’s making, simply by supplementing with the Balance Oil+.

If you’re looking to support your child’s cognitive health, focus and emotional well-being, Balance Oil+ is a powerful solution to meet their nutritional needs. This is THE #1 supplement everyone can benefit from; the testimonials continue to amaze me! We will be doing a seminar soon on the role of Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Polyphenols on Brain Health, Focus, Behavior, and overall cognitive function. Stay tuned for more!

The following is an article/blog I wrote on the BalanceOil+. Enjoy and email me to learn more about the BalanceOil+ which is helping so many. My email is robert@dietfreelife.com

BalanceOil+, a supplement combining omega-3 fatty acids and polyphenols, offers a unique approach to supporting children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Known for their roles in brain health, these nutrients may help improve focus, behavior, and emotional regulation—making BalanceOil+ a practical solution for addressing symptoms common to these neurodevelopmental conditions.

The Role of Omega-3 Fatty Acids in Brain Health

Omega-3 fatty acids, especially DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), are essential for brain function and development. DHA, which is highly concentrated in brain cells, supports membrane fluidity and neuron communication, vital for cognitive function. Children with ASD and ADHD often have lower levels of omega-3s, which can lead to inflammation and hindered mental performance. Research suggests that increasing omega-3 levels can improve attention, reduce hyperactivity, and support mood regulation (Richardson et al., 2000; Sinn et al., 2008).

Polyphenols and Neuroprotection

Polyphenols, natural antioxidants found in plant-based foods, protect the brain by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation—factors associated with ASD and ADHD (Kennedy et al., 2014). Found in foods like berries, tea, and cocoa, polyphenols contribute to cognition, mood stabilization, and decreased anxiety, all beneficial for children with autism and ADHD (Hoge et al., 2012).

The Synergy of Omega-3s and Polyphenols in BalanceOil+

BalanceOil+ combines omega-3 fatty acids and polyphenols in a unique, science-backed formula that promotes brain health. This pairing enhances the absorption and stability of omega-3s, maximizing their effectiveness. Omega-3s in BalanceOil+ reinforce cell structure and neuron signaling, while polyphenols protect against oxidative damage and support neurotransmitter function. Together, they offer a balanced approach that can improve emotional regulation, reduce impulsivity, and boost cognitive focus (Martins et al., 2021).

Additionally, BalanceOil+ stands out because it pairs omega-3s and polyphenols in one product—a combination not commonly found in other supplements. This formula is designed for bioavailability and efficacy, helping families access the benefits of these nutrients with ease.

The Importance of the BalanceTest

To know if your child has adequate omega-3 levels, consider using the BalanceTest. This at-home test measures omega-3 percentage in the red blood cell membrane, indicating how much these essential fats are supporting brain and cellular function. Optimal levels should fall between 8-12 percent, yet most children and adults in the United States and Canada are below 4 percent. Knowing your child’s omega-3 percentage can provide a starting point for adjusting their intake, whether through dietary changes or supplementation with BalanceOil+.

Call to Action

If you’re looking for a way to support your child’s cognitive health, focus, and emotional well-being, BalanceOil+ may be a powerful addition to their routine. By offering a unique blend of omega-3s and polyphenols, BalanceOil+ delivers these nutrients in a form designed for optimal absorption and effectiveness. Start with a BalanceTest to determine your child’s omega-3 levels and then consider BalanceOil+ as a solution to help meet their nutritional needs.
