to think MN should not be promoting discredited "intelligence pills"

Why is MN promoting advertising from sellers of omega-3 pills on a thread/advert titled something about how to support children in exams?

Omega-3 may be good for your heart, but does nothing for your ability to pass exams. Yet here it is being listed as things good parents should be providing for stressed teens.

This claim about omega-3 improving academic outcomes has now been so thoroughly discredited that is is used as a long standing classic "bad science" case study - although it is outdated even in that, as we have so many more recent examples.

Please don't take revenue from these charlatans, MN
