Guest guest Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 I have used Carlson's CLO because I trust Dr. Mercola. However, I now question Carlson's CLO and also Dr.Mercola. I will call Carlson's this week and find out what is up. Please, I ask everyone to do the same and find out from Carlson's. Do not trust anyone's word, period. Document everything! Also, there must be third party testing done on this product! I know that the Norwegian's keep the BEST cod liver oil for themselves - they give us (USA) the inferior grade.

To my way of thinking, it is counterproductive for any company to hide information that would induce people to buy the product! Re: Carlson Cod Liver Oil Does Not Contain Synthetic Vitamins Until now, it has never been an option in Carlson's mind that cutomers might think the vitamins are synthetic. Because we use only natural cod liver oil that has no added synthetic ingredients, we never even considered that NOT STATING the vitamins are natural would indicate in some persons mind that this is an indication that they might be synthetic. I will bring this to the attention of our labeling manager and perhaps the labels can be changed. Eaxctly how would you like Carlson to prove no synthetic ingredients are added? Would a written letter on company letterhead suffice? ====================== Thanks for the reply, Tim. If it were ME in charge of making sure that customers felt confident about my product, I'd issue a report on the Carlson website and also on letterhead, in the printed media someplace, simply stating that contrary to recent rumors, Carlson does not put anything synthetic into its cod liver oil. Just to alleviate concerns. Best, Nenah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 30, 2005 Report Share Posted May 30, 2005 If you call Carlson you'll end up talking with me. That's how this all got started, with me taking phone calls from confused WAPF followers with false information. <I know that the Norwegian's keep the BEST cod liver oil for <themselves - they give us (USA) the inferior grade. Really, and where did you hear this from? The grapevine? Because, you know, the grapevine is ALWAYS right!

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2005 Report Share Posted May 30, 2005 You know what, I think you are right. If anyone has questions on Carlson Cod Liver Oil, just call Carlson. My statements here are clearly not effective. Perhaps they will hold more value after you reach me on the phone at Carlson or if they come on Carlson letterhead. In fact, I will leave this board to it's members and no longer post. If you want information just call. > > Tim, > > If Carlson's is free of artificial ingredients, I don't know why the company would want to keep this information confidential.
