Hi, I was checking out the info on CLO for both of these companies.

Accoridng to their websites, 1 tsp of Carlsons CLO provides 400 IU vitamin

D and 1 tsp of NN provides 1-20 IU vitamin D. That's a big difference !

anyone else notice this and have any idea why ? The vitamin A content is

similiar.

Do many here give their kids CLO? And if so, how do you get your kids to

swallow it? I take it daily, but my kids don't like it. Any ideas?

We use a syringe for our Fish Oil. One son takes it no problem, the other one we

need to force him to take it. He used to take it and then stopped.

He also has an aversion to eating utensils, so we don't think it's the taste.

Same for brushing his teeth.

Hello,

Check into Green pastures CLO also; we switched to it about 2 months ago from

Kirkman's with great results.

What I do note here is that Nordic tests their oils for heavy metals

independently and will furnish you with testing. Carlson's...there was some

dilemma about the quality of their oil and whether or not it was metal free or

pcb free.

As a result of the lack or Carlson's willingness to furnish us with an

independent metal assay test, we use either Nordic or Green Pasture's CLO only.

We take it like a religion, no offenses, just a phrase.

My son takes his right from the spoon or syringe, but it is cinnamon flavor.

Don't ask me, he won't take the stuff I think tastes good, but he eats this

without a problem.

Nordic has ones that kids can chew or swallow in strawberry. My older one will

only take caps of CLO. She hates the liquid.

Try finding flavored ones from Nordic or Green Pastures. They are more palatable

usually. Barlean's also sells a clo that is lemon flavor that my daughter liked.

We got a sample size one and she loved that one.

I put the results in the files section here :

/files/%20Fish%20Oil%20Test%2\

0Results/

anyone know if the detection limits are sufficiently low so that we dont

introduce apreciable nasites into the kids ?
