Someone else on another list checked it out and Carlson's does use vit E derived from soy. Also, 1 tsp of Carlson's has 1100 IU vitamin A. 1/2 tsp Blue Ice contains 5750 IU vitamin A. The WAP recommends 10,000 IU vitamin A per day, so if you want that dosage, you would have to take about 9 tsp of Carlson's to get the vitamin A in 1 tsp of Blue Ice. This feels like a Total Cereal commercial. Katy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 About a half year ago I contacted Mercola on the subject of Carlson's soy based vitamin E and the synthetic vitamin A and D used in the product.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 I'm interested in this discussion in part because I'm pretty sure that I saw Ron Schmid selling Carlson's along with Blue Ice CLO at his table at the 2004 WAP conference. I took that as a strong endorsement. Was I wrong?

I took that as a strong endorsement. Was I wrong? He sells it off his website too, as does Mercola. I wouldn't be *that* worried about the small soy content in the oil, as long as it is not GMO. Since it is manufactured in Europe, chances of it being GMO are lesser (almost all soy in North America is GMO). The bigger concern for me is whether the vitamins A and D are synthetic (as someone else suggested). The silence on the part of the manufacturer (Moeller) as well as Mercola on this issue is very disturbing, to say the least. -Pratick __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLO as a regulated product does not have to have any naturally occuring vitamins in it. Only thing that is regulated is the oil part - it has to be fish oil. Vitamins can be syntetic all the way. And you don't have to inform about it on the product. The processing plants of the big marine lipid companies produce purified fish oil (separating oil from liver and so on) in one big production line. This fish oil can be then sold as fish oil or used as a " base " to make CLO by adding back the lost vitamins as synthetics. It may sound silly but is actually the most cost-effective way to manufacture for a big business. Other way of making CLO is to try save most of the naturally occuring vitamins in processing and then standardize the CLO. In all of the medical product sheets I've seen this has been done with synthetics. Any product that reports having a fixed amount of vit. A or vit. D has to standardize the vitamins. According to a representative of Lysi (a marine lipid company), if you want to make unbleached and undeodorized cod liver oil with natural vitamins A and D, the vitamin content will fluctuate a lot. The vitamin A could be approximately 600 - 1.500 i.u./g and the D vitamin 100 - 250 i.u./g. I haven't seen many products that really claim having only natural vitamins and report the amounts in approximates. One such product reports having Vitamin A: 875-1950 IU Vitamin D: 5-40 IU.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2005 Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 Here's Mercola himself on soy derived vitamin E: " Many of my subscribers are probably familiar with the Carlson name as they are also my #1 choice for Fish Oil and Cod Liver Oil. Carlson All-Natural Vitamin E products are derived from soybean oil. However, there is no reason to be concerned that these are from soy – as all of the negative elements of soy have been removed and only the valuable vitamin E elements are provided.

I got my first set of Blue Ice CLO last week. It tastes better than the Carlson's - doesn't have the " fishy " taste. But if the idea about *all* CLO containing synthetic vitamins is true, then Carlson's is probably better than Blue Ice because it will contain less synthetic vitamins. Both the products say on the label that they don't use synthetic vitamins. Unlike Carlson's, Blue Ice has a range for the DHA and EPA, but the A and D is a single number. > I haven't seen many products that really claim having only natural > vitamins and report the amounts in approximates. One such product > reports having Vitamin A: 875-1950 IU Vitamin D: 5-40 IU. Which brand is that? Also, I am finding that the Carlson's being sold in grocery stores (at least here in Canda) is actually the " reduced " vitamin A and D version - I haven't been able to find the original Carlson's that has 1100 IU of Vitamin A as shown on their website. Maybe they plan to manufacture only the " reduced " vitmain version moving forward. -Pratick __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my. Pratick, what flavor did you get? I discovered that whoever said the " orange " flavor didn't do anything to disguise the straight fish oil flavor was absolutely right - that stuff is ... well, icky. To me at least.

I got the regular flavour, that is, no flavour at all. Even for the Carlson's I used the unflavoured one. And no, Blue Ice doesn't taste icky to me, but neither did Carlson. Carlson had the raw fish taste (which didn't bother us), but BI doesn't. -Pratick __________________________________ Mobile Take with you!

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2005 Report Share Posted April 9, 2005 I've got the Ice Blue CLO in mint flavor. It's got a slightly fishy smell and taste. It's not too bad, except I'd rather deal with a straight fish taste than a weird combination of mint & fish. The lemon Carlson's I've had is definitely superior in taste. To me, the Carlson's had no hint of fish smell or taste.

Actually, the Carlson's didn't really taste like lemon to me either, so it was basically okay except for how much of it I had to take. I'm told the Blue Ice kinda grows on ya. LOL.

Heh. > I'm beginning to wonder if how CLO and fish oil tastes to each person is an indicator as to whether or not your body needs it? I drink down the unflavored Blue Ice twice a day and can't get any strong taste at all after about 30 seconds, while my wife has about as much difficulty as you describe above getting her portion of the flavored oils down. My first thought was that it was simply mind over matter and once you make the decision that CLO is good for you you just do what it takes and adjust to the taste. I'm seeing so many reports here of people who never seem to adapt that I'm wondering if there isn't a larger mechanism at work. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are all sorts of different variables that will make something more or less palatable to me. With CLO, I object as much to the texture of " drinking " straight oil as I do to the taste. I blew off Carlson's because I didn't like 3 tbsp of oil going through my mouth. I don't have that problem with Blue Ice, as it's only 1 tbsp. Flavor sucks, but it's offset by 1/3 as much oil. Yada yada yada. Sort of like I always thought I hated sushi and sashimi. Tried again and realized it wasn't the taste, it was the texture of most fish I didn't like (with the exception of sometimes tuna and eel). So I discovered ceviche. Like I know liver is good for me. Doesn't mean I've eaten it again yet. Taste, texture, nuance .... art.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2005 Report Share Posted April 9, 2005 's Method for Eating Yucky Tasting Things, including CLO: 1. Plug nose by raising the back of your soft palate up. You should be able to breathe through your mouth. 2. Swallow the CLO (or other offensive substance). KEEP HOLDING YOUR NOSE. 3. Take a swig of something strong, like OJ, coffee, whatever. I usually follow CLO with VCO to clear the taste completely. 4. Release your nose after 30 seconds or so (you can breathe through your mouth, of course). Remember: if you can't smell, you can't taste (other than salty, sweet, sour, and bitter). HTH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See if you and your wife can describe the smell as different. BTW, metabolic protein types shouldn't use CLO for A, only palmitate. Never did get to CLO myself. Take fish oil and haven't got to palm oil or found a decent palmitate. has problems with CLO. You did mention your daughter relieved her IBD, constipation, iirc with a meat, potato, veggie diet. Could be your wife and daughter are stronger protein types than you. Certain smells get me long before hubby and daughter. Still owe you a answer I haven't got to look up and write yet.

I've been mostly using it for omega 3 supplementation. It's interesting that you mention this because I was actually planning to reduce my intake of CLO as I begin to implement raw liver into the diet. My plan was to take some high vit CLO and then add in regular fish oil to round out the omega 3 quotient. > > You did mention your daughter relieved her IBD, constipation, > iirc with a > meat, potato, veggie diet.
