As you can see there are many benefits to taking CLO and people have known this for centuries! Note the old sign in the back from 1935 advertising that the vitamin A content in a teaspoon CLO is equivalent to 5.5 quarts of milk, a pound of butter or 9 eggs! They actually used CLO as a topping for horses and cattle on the top of the food they were eating because they saw great benefits even for the animals

Why Do I Need Cod Liver Oil? Cod Liver Oil contains Omega 3 fatty acids, which includes DHA and EPA – they support many areas of the body including the heart, brain, healthy cholesterol levels, inflammation, and the list goes on… Most people do not eat enough cold water fish, such as salmon, cod, sardines, mackerel…and are probably not getting enough of these Omega-3 fatty acids to adequately support your body systems We need our bodies to withstand the stress of our busy everyday lives. If you’ve heard of Omega 3 fats (or DHA and EPA), you are aware that the body needs these nutrients to function properly. If you are not eating plentiful amounts of cold water fish like the ones listed here you are probably not getting enough of the Omega 3 fats in your diet to support all the different systems of the body that rely on DHA & EPA. If you read the health magazines and watch TV, you are probably seeing many ads that promote these omega 3 fats. Unfortunately the quality of these products may not be the best.

Why take Cod Liver Oil as opposed to other fish oils? Most fish oils that are high in the Omega-3 fatty acids do not contain any vitamins CLO has the added benefit of not only the Omega 3s, but also the naturally occurring vitamin A & D complex Vitamin A supports the immune system, eyes, liver, nervous system, etc. Vitamin D supports our bones, cardiovascular system, endocrine system, teeth, immune system, etc. Nature provides these two vitamins in a natural way; therefore, there are many systems supported beyond what you would get from other fish oils CLO is unique compared to other oils by containing not only the omega 3s but also the vitamin A & D complex.

Vitamin A Vitamin D Immune System Epithelial Tissue Vision Liver Vitamin A & D support so many vital systems of the body. Recent research shows that almost 50% of the population is vitamin A deficient and 90% of the population is vitamin D deficient. We need to supplement our diet with these vital nutrients, and thankfully, Cod Liver Oil can supply those! Immune System Endocrine Cardiovascular Vitamin D Teeth Bone

Where does Cod Liver Oil come from? Standard Process has gone to the crystal clear waters of Norway to find the premium Cod Liver Oil that they are proud to put their name on. The people of Norway have fished these waters for centuries, enjoying the benefits of natures bounty! Norway is the Cod Liver capital of the world and even though much of the CLO may come from there, that doesn’t always mean it is of the best quality. For this reason, Standard Process went to Norway to inspect the facilities to be sure they had the superior quality oil and processing procedures in place.

Why Should I Use Standard Process Cod Liver Oil? The CLO from Standard Process keeps the naturally occurring vitamin A and D in tact through their gentle processing In fact, many Cod Liver Oils on the market are stripped of their natural vitamins and synthetic vitamins are added back in Many oils sold in the market today are not natural oils, they have been heavily processed and have added synthetic vitamins added to make the labels look better but they lost the qualities of a natural oil.

High Quality Cod Liver Oil Standard Process Cod Liver Oil goes through a process which removes all chlorinated hydrocarbons, PCBs, heavy metals, etc. It is not bleached with clays and does not go through the harsh processing that most other oils are exposed to during manufacturing Every batch is tested to maintain the highest quality standards It is important that fish liver oils are free from contaminants that could have been consumed by the fish. For this reason Standard Process goes to great lengths to ensure the highest quality Cod Liver Oil available, yet still keeping the naturally occurring vitamins in tact.

How Much Should I Take? The recommended dosage is 3 perles per day, which supplies: 300 mg of DHA 210 mg of EPA 30% of your Vitamin D needs 20% of your Vitamin A needs This dosage is a great addition to the vitamins and the essential fatty acids that are not provided in the daily diet Remember that all of the vitamins and essential fats that are contained in this natural Cod Liver Oil are there naturally, no synthetic substitutes have been added. In fact being a product from nature there are probably many more benefits to Cod Liver Oil than have even been discovered.

Cod Liver Oil & Kids Cod Liver Oil is an excellent supplement for kids of any age to support many areas such as bones, teeth, immune system, etc. For younger kids who can’t swallow the perle, you can puncture it and they will experience the delicious lemon flavor Dosage: 3-6 perles per day If you look at what most kids are eating these days giving them Cod Liver Oil every morning would be a HUGE addition to their daily diet. Often kids are eating way too many carbohydrates which has a negative impact on blood sugar. Cod Liver Oil has been shown in clinical studies to help balance insulin levels. Many kids and adults are deficient in both vitamins A & D, in fact in most everybody has less than normal vitamin D levels, so CLO is a great addition to their diet.
