Every time I give my child fish oil he becomes aggressive and hard to manage. What should I do?
A worsening of behaviors when administering the fish oil or olive oil to your child indicates their “leaky gut” is not fully healed. If treating with inulin or rifaximin, stop the offending oil and wait an additional 2 weeks to let the leaky gut heal. If the same reaction occurs after starting the oil, I’ll recommend changing the inulin dose to monthly rifaximin or monthly rifaximin to continuous rifaximin.
