Re: cod liver oil or fish oil?

[Guest guest]

I use cod liver oil in the winter and fish oil in the summer.

I just started using Codmega by Garden of Life, which mixes both Cod Liver

Oil and Fish oil in their capsules. So I'm getting the best of both worlds!

This company seems to offer high quality and toxin-free ingredients.

The details & benefits of this specific brand are at the following link:

I think the key is testing to know which to take, you can find clean

CLO. I lived in Florida for years and got tested for vitamin D and was

at the low end of the healthy range! I take CLO all year, with higher

doses in winter and lower or none when I have a nice long day out in

the sun. fish oil is needed pretty much all year because you can't

take enough CLO to get all your EFAs. Some will argue that point though...

You can get healthy CLO from a few sources, I believe Nordic Naturals

(not 100% sure about this source) and Blue Ice are the only

recommended sources, the rest aren't NT approved. The shopping guide

just came out, that should have them in there. I haven't read this

year's guide yet.

but I do think absorption is an individual thing and certainly

everyone's skin is a different color and makes differing amounts of

Vit. D so getting tested is all you can be sure about. if a doc orders

it, insurance usually covers it. they're not too hard to convince.

cod liver oil. Any insight? A friend of mine who sells fish oil

bashes the cod liver oil because of contaminates in it. So I am

confused since I see it is listed as a superfood by Price. I can't

afford both and want to oil to my children as well. Can you help me

decide?

What about the CLO that Dr. Mercola sells from Carlson?

We have Blue Ice CLO at the clinic. We always carry it so no need to

call ahead unless you want a case.

Fermented is $45/bottle but the dose is a smaller size b/c it is

more concentrated. Reg is $20/bottle. The fermented is a better buy

if cost is your only consideration.
