Giving children organic milk can help their concentration and behaviour.
According to the researchers from Aberystwyth, Wales, organic milk contains 64% more Omega 3 fatty acids than non-organic milk. In some cases organic milk contains 240% more Omega 3 acids.
The researchers also say that behaviour problems often improve if you switch your child to organic milk.
Another bonus is that organic milk consumption, compared to non-organic milk, can reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's.
When cows are fed clover, their organic milk is much richer, they say.
The downside in all this is that organic milk is much more expensive than non-organic.
