Cod Liver Oil

An excellent source of preformed vitamins A and D. It is especially useful for individuals with digestive problems since they may have difficulty converting Beta Carotene (provitamin A) into vitamin A. Cod and halibut liver oils have been used as nutritional supplements for many years. These liver oils decrease inflammation, and thereby, prevent and treat heart disease. A component of the liver oil, EPA, is an important fatty acid in the maintenance of cardiovascular health and the regulation of inflammation. EPA is a precursor to a series of chemicals whose job it is to regulate the inflammatory effects of arachidonic acid. Arachidonic acid causes inflammation in arteries and leads to the development of atherosclerotic plaques. Fish liver oils contain the vitamins D and K which improve bone health by regulating the uptake of minerals in the intestine and modulating bone building.

The essential fatty acid, DHA, in fish liver oils is an essential component of the brain and central nervous system. It seems to concentrate in areas where there is lots of electrical activity, such as the synaptosomes, where nerve cells communicate, and the photoreceptors of the eye. This is why a deficiency of DHA can result in poor brain development, attention/deficit hyperactivity disorder, learning disorders, memory problems and poor visual development.

Cod/halibut liver oil contains more vitamin A and more vitamin D per unit weight than any other common food. In addition, they contain 7 percent each of the essential omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, and small amounts of vitamin K. Some fish liver oil supplements are altered from their normal nutrient ratios to provide more or less of the above mentioned nutrients. Children, and pregnant or nursing women, should use caution when using fish liver oils because of their fat-soluble vitamin content.

Vitamin A
Vitamin A is an important vitamin for boosting the immune system and protecting the mucus membranes from infection via its ability enhance the integrity of epithelial tissue. It is an antioxidant that protects cells from damage by neutralizing free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that in their bid to become more stable must bump into healthy cells and cause damage. This can cause cell death, alterations in genetic material, and ultimately lead to the aging of an organism. Vitamin A has also been shown to decrease the risk of heart disease, stroke and high cholesterol.

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning that it is transported into the body by tagging along with a fat molecule. The major body storage area is the liver, where several months’ supply is held. Vitamin A has many functions in the body. It prevents night blindness by helping the recycling of pigments in the eye’s rod cells.
