Guest guest Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 > Can you provide a link? Blue Ice noted in previous post: http://www.drrons.com/cod-liver-oil.htm Hi , Seems like Nordic Naturals also has an Arctic Cod Liver Oil cap that has similar EPA and DHA content as the Blue Ice BUT very low vitamin A and D. Also a few other choices with varying amounts of A & D, I only noted some here. this info is from the Kirkman catalog dated 2005 Nordic Naturals Artic Cod Liver oil: 2 gel caps: Vitamin A 350-780 IU Vitamin D 0-16 IU Vitamin E 33 IU DHA 280 mg EPA 180 mg other omega 3 100 mg This two noted here are from the Nordic Naturals website: https://www.nordicnaturals.com/direct/prodsummary.asp?ID=8 Nordic Naturals Artic Cod Liver oil liquid Each teaspoon provides: DHA: 625 mg Vitamin A: 1500–2750 IU EPA: 410 mg Vitamin D: 5–40 IU Other Omega-3s: 225 mg Vitamin E (mixed tocopherols): 5 IU Nordic Naturals Artic Cod Liver oil: Each 2 soft gel serving provides: DHA: 250 mg Vitamin A: 600–1100 IU EPA: 164 mg Vitamin D: 2–16 IU Other Omega-3s: 90 mg Vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol): 30 IU Please post any info you find out.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Does Dr. Ron's have an assay for metal content that he/they share? That is the other piece of the puzzle. I am interested in this product. Can you provide a link?

Suze, If you find something with higher EPA/DHA than this please post. My kids really prefer the capsules. Robyn Dr. Ron's Ultra-Pure Cod Liver Oil contains no synthetic or soy- based antioxidants. Instead, we use the natural antioxidant rosemary oil. Add natural organic flavoring oils, and the result is our full- vitamin, premium quality, great tasting old-fashioned cod liver oil. Nutrition Information: One-half teaspoon provides: Vitamin A 5750 IUs EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) 145 - 375 mg Vitamin D 575 IUs DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) 150 - 360 mg One capsule provides: Vitamin A 2500 IUs EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) 150 mg Vitamin D 250 IUs DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) 100 mg Rosemary Oil is used in all Dr. Ron's cod liver oils as a natural antioxidant. We also carry Carlson's Lemon-Flavored Cod Liver Oil (500 ml) and soft gel capsules (1000 mg, 250 per bottle). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With such low A and D content, it seems kinda pointless to take this rather than simply taking fish oil. >This two noted here are from the Nordic Naturals website: >https://www.nordicnaturals.com/direct/prodsummary.asp?ID=8 >Nordic Naturals Artic Cod Liver oil liquid >Each teaspoon provides: >DHA: 625 mg Vitamin A: 1500–2750 IU >EPA: 410 mg Vitamin D: 5–40 IU >Other Omega-3s: 225 mg Vitamin E (mixed tocopherols): 5 IU > >Nordic Naturals Artic Cod Liver oil: >Each 2 soft gel serving provides: >DHA: 250 mg Vitamin A: 600–1100 IU >EPA: 164 mg Vitamin D: 2–16 IU >Other Omega-3s: 90 mg Vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol): 30 IU Same comment as above. Also, the ratio of A to D is not good. In this latter product the ratio of A to D ranges from 300:1 to 69:1. Vits A and D are antagonist, synergistic and additive. If there is too much A and neglibable D, it could have harmful effects. I will post more details about this when my friend's article is published, but I can't yet share the research he's shared with me until after publication, as it wouldn't be fair to him. In any event, they should be in a much lower ratio. Blue Ice has a ratio of 10:1 A to D. Some think this should be further lowered by eating vitamin D-rich foods. Or supplementing extra D. I haven't yet seen another CLO with a lower ratio, (AND that has reasonably high amounts of A and D AND contains natural vitamins, etc). Suze Fisher Lapdog Design, Inc.

But I can tell you it's as free of contaminats, if not more so than any other CLO on the market. I'm in contact with the North American distributor (I plan to distribute it myself - I think it's a grea product!) and will post more info soon. Suze Fisher Lapdog Design, Inc.
