Guest guest Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 _Click here: Arctic Cod Liver Oil_ (http://www.nutritiongeeks.com/arctic-cod-liver-oil-nordic-16-orange/arctic-cod-\ liver-oil-nordic.html) Has anyone used this fish oil? I am thinking about buying it. No matter how hard I try to get my daughter to eat salmon, she just picks at it and I worry about her not getting her omega-3. , I remember you telling us how to test fish oil but I forgot how you said to do it. Can you tell me? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Hi , Copied below is the information you requested. This is a crude test for heavy metals in fish oil harvested from the flesh of fish. I'm not sure that it will ensure the safety of cod liver oil, since liver oils can have other issues besides heavy metals. I would recommend doing additional research on cod liver oil specifically to ensure its safe use. Here you go: " Dr. Sears, the doctor who wrote The Zone Diet, also recommends a home test to see if there are heavy metals in the oil. He suggests emptying several capsules into a small container...like a lid or thimble...then freezing it for five hours. If a toothpick goes through it easily, then it doesn't have serious levels of contamination. In addition, he recommends using your nose to detect if it's rancid or oxidized.
