Guest guest Posted February 20, 2003 Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 Someone asked what should we replace cod liver oil with since cod are becoming endangered. The best alternative to cod liver oil is shark liver oil. In fact, if from the appropriate shark, SLO is superior to CLO. This is because it is not only high (in fact, higher) in Vitamins A & D and EPA & DHA, but it has the added benefit of a very high alkylglycerol (AKG) content, which is potent immune system enhancer, anti-cancer, etc. The highest content of AKGs is in the Emoptherus shark from near New Zealand, the second highest is the Greenland Shark. If anyone is interested, search the archives of this list for " shark liver oil " and they will find probably only a few emails, one of which has a link I gave to a website that you can mail order shark liver oil. I can't afford shark liver oil, but have not found a source of liquid, only capsulized. I imagine for any of you who might use capsulized cod liver oil the price is similar.
