What is the deal with Cod Liver Oil capsules? I kept hearing references and reviews of Cod Liver Oil and was determined to get to the bottom of its uses, benefits and risks. Supplements are definitely the hot topic right now, but are all of them healthy, safe choices to add a normal diet? Do the benefits outweigh the risks? And what is the truth regarding usage? I don’t want to be a bandwagon follower so I decided to do my own research to gain some basic understanding about Cod Liver capsules. Here is a short list of condenses information that you might find useful if you find yourself in my same position. It is also very important that you always consult your doctor before adding or changing anything related to supplements or health issues.
Cod Liver Oil tablets is packed with several great vitamins, including vitamin A and D. First of all, vitamin A is great for immune health, vision and repair of tissue. You are able to get vitamin A naturally through foods such as eggs, dairy products, certain fruits and vegetables and of course, liver. (Cod Liver Oil capsules are easier to imagine consuming!) Vitamin D is naturally produced by the body when exposed to enough sunlight; however, due to environmental or diet issues – it might be necessary to add a vitamin D supplement to your diet. It is important to note that it is possible to overdose on vitamin D.
Cod Liver Oil also contains Omega 3 fatty acids which is a fat soluble, that is labeled as a “good fat”. It is important to have in a diet to help balance out the Omega 6 and 9 fatty acids that are so prevalent in western society’s average diet. It can also be used to reduce high levels of triglycerides.
