Vitamin K Protocol/cod liver oil brand name?

[Guest guest]

Hello There to those of you familiar with the vitamin k protocol...I

would like to try adding the cod liver oil to my daughter's diet- I

wondered a few things:

1. Is there a brand I might find at a local health food store (whole

foods maybe), that is scd legal- I have already ordered 2 separate

online orders and I was hoping to find it locally

2. Should I start with one teaspoon..maybe I should look for that on

the groups message board ( I am just cross eyed with all of this!!!)

You are all so helpful!!!

The one she recommends most highly is Green Pastures... and you have to order

it online. www.greenpasture.org

I found one in my local health food store, made by Twinlab... their Norwegian

CLO. They make other CLOs that are " emulsified " , which are NOT legal, but the

regular Norwegian (the plain, unflavored one) is legal. You have to give twice

as much of it to get the vitamin levels recommended in the K protocol.... which

is a pain, if your child doesn't like the taste.... but it's readily available

and affordable. I pay $8.99 a bottle. It turns out to cost just about the same

as Green Pastures, b/c of having to give more of it, but sometimes I can only

afford the nine bucks at one time.

I doubled-checked with the company to make sure all the vitamin A & D was

natural and sourced from the cod liver (not synthetic, added later, like some

CLOs have)... and I got their assays for metals and toxins and ran it by

... she said it's fine.

Dosage-wise, you need to look at the protocol for how many IUs of A she needs to

be getting for her age.... and definitely go ahead and start with that much .

You don't need to slowly work up to the dosage on the CLO.... although you do

with the K2 itself.

The vitamin D in the CLO will automatically be in the right proportion to the A,

though depending on your child's test results, *might* suggest

additional D3... I don't give any extra to Katera. Any more questions about

stuff for the K protocol probably should be posted over there, not here.
