+++Hi Helene,

I don't believe it was wrong to take 2 tablespoons of Garden of Life Cod Liver

Oil, but I'm being overly cautious now because I had

previously relied upon the Weston A. Price Foundation (WAPF) and Dr. Mercola as

reputable sources of information, that I'm finding aren't always correct.

WAPF recommends 4,800 omega 3 per day for people who aren't on this program or

on their program (??) who may be getting a few sources of Omega 6. However, some

people on this program won't be getting as much Omega 6 since not everyone is

eating " grass-fed " meats and eggs from chickens fed their natural diet, and some

people aren't having much extra virgin olive oil or any.

I can't cover all bases all of the time, but I think it is better to err on the

side of caution since " more is not better. "

You only need to take 1 tablespoon of Garden of Life plus 1 halibut liver oil

capsule, or as Adri pointed out this morning, you can take 4 teaspoons (1

tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon).
