does cod liver oil have omega 3 in it

Cod liver oil contains vitamin D! Are you then taking to much D? Cod liver is more likely to contain contaminants. Cod liver oil contains vitamin A and D they are fat soluble that being said they can cause toxicity in excessive amounts. Primrose oil contains omega 6 and if you google foods containing omega 6 then I will guess you are consuming way to much omega 6 to omega 3. You didn't state what your diet consists of. Your multi. might contain all the vitamins that you stated.

No, cod liver oil should be avoided. You can get fish oil (that's not from liver) which is great for you and baby.

Cod liver oil isn't the best fish oil for inflammation or for omega 3 oils. It comes in gel caps, which you don't taste at all. Nordic Naturals is a very good brand for omega 3 rich fish oil.

A good healthy diet is important for anybody. While studies have shown that some food dyes can cause ADHD like symptoms, I have never seen a study showing that cod liver oil would be helpful. If you wanted to try anything I would try and find some wild salmon fish oil pills. They are super high in Omega-3's.

Krill oil is very good for Omega 3 oils, but it's also environmentally not so good for humans to be using as it's the main source of food for so many endangered and threatened species. Something to think about. Nordic Naturals makes a fine fish oil not made of krill, with a dedicated fishery in clean waters off Scandanavia.

asp That explains why my Cod Liver Oil tablets cured my food, pet, and dust allergies. Omega 3 is fish oil, mainly. I'd still love to hear someone's herbal/alternative cure for hay fever.

1/2 cucumber - I take your advise and change the cod liver oil to omega 3 fish oil .

Standard cod liver oil is *extremely* high in vitamin A, and there is some chance that taking excess vitamin A--over a teaspoon per day--will increase the effectiveness of coumadin, putting patients at even greater risk for bleeding. Same goes for the Omega-3s in cod liver oil. You can read about it here (or wikipedia, etc): http://www.livestrong.

My best friend who already has a child told me the cod liver oil was the best so I decided to buy it. The pills arrived on a Saturday. I took them Sunday & became very nauseous about an hour later & it lasted all day. Took them Monday & was so sick all day that I missed worked. Took again today & still not feeling well even though this brand claims to not cause stomach upset.

Some people recommend a dose of between 1000mg of EPA with 500mg of DHA in Omega 3 and a dose of 1000mg of Cod liver oil. Vitamin C between 500mg and 1000mg. This should not only improve the depression but also help with the joints. However always consult with your doctor if you are currently taking medication or ask for advice with a local health store on recommended doses and drug interactions( if any).

I would take daily supplements of cod-liver oil (a teaspoon a day) and a teaspoon of an omega-3. These things often happen for simple reasons like sitting in an airplane seat for too many hours. Next time it happen's I'd go to an emergency room.

but read that cod liver oil is a no-no. Does any one have any insight into what is a good supplement?

I understand that Omega 3 fish oil is more for bones and cod liver oil is more for heart health. So I guess both would be good. D3 is one of the most important as we don't generally run around naked in the sun! At least, I don't! I live in Arizona where there is plenty of sunshine, but I don't get out in it much as it gets too hot here. I did not try the krill oil as it is quite costly. Hope this info was helpful.

yes - well i take cod liver oil... Thanks for the info...

Lutein is also good supplement for eyes. Blueberries. Beta carotene and vitamin A. Cod liver oil (omega 3). Stay away from processed foods. Eat organic when possible.

Do an elimination process. Shower without soap, shampoo, etc. Then vary the temperature of the water. check differences. Temperature seems to be key so check room temperature when exiting the shower. Hotter or colder. Try a bath instead of a shower. Try sodium bicarbonate (Baking soda) in the bath. Have a Dr. do a high histamine check (Consists of a simple scratch test on your arm) Someone else suggested to have a high red blood cell count test done.

Coincidently, around 12 years ago when my arrythmia took a turn for the worse, I was on a health kick, had decided to clean up my health and diet, and started taking fish oil with Omega 3-6-9 and borage oil because I had heard it was heart healthy and would lower my cholesterol. Never made the connection between the supplements and the worsening arrythmia. I was on several other self-prescribed vitamin and mineral supplements as well.

how old is your son? You can now get 'omega-3' oil which is basically cod liver oil with additives for more effectiveness and lemon meringue or other sweet flavors. A tsp a day would make his bowels more more smoothly and less painfully. What does the doctor say?

I recommend taking a multi-vitamin, Omega 3 Fish Oil, and Cod Liver Oil daily for starters. You can Google these are see what the benefits are. Best of luck!

I hope it doesn't seem too simple Karen. It does work believe it or not. Lots of us have calcium and vitamin D deficiencies due to chemo and estrogen blocker medications, let alone menopause! You're a good daughter to help her with simple solutions that work without causing new side effects. God bless you both.

Some people have issues with fish oil/Omega 3. It can cause anxiety/insomnia. It did in my case when I bought supplements. Also...D3 needs to be taken in the morning or early afternoon if you forget your dose. Taking at night can cause insomnia. *Take it in the morning. Vitamin D temporarily pauses the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone, so don’t take it at night. You can switch to over the counter Vitamin D3 supplements if the fish oil is causing issues.
