Ds has had cold after cold after tonsilitis after cold after tonsilitis and finally has had a week off with d&v which was mainly d and was a tummy bug that seemed to go around all of us. He has also got clicky joints like his father.

I wanted to get him Omega but lots of them have Vitamin A in. Ds eats loads of veggies etc and I am worried about Vitamin A overdose.

Can anyone recommend a good Omega supplement that isn't also a mulitivitamin?

Hiya, My favourites are:
Biocare Omegaberry
Eskimo 3 little cubs.
Hope that helps.
I would also think about probiotics to replace bowel flora after the diarrhoea, especially if he's had antibiotics at all for the tonsillitis?
I hope that helps.

carolinementzer - thank you, that is really helpful.

I'll try and get some probiotics in him as he has had a few doses of antibiotics.

I really appreciate you posting.
