Amazing Health Benefits of Norwegian Cod Liver Oil
So here is a little plug for Cod Liver Oil. Yes, that's right. Its the horrible stuff that your grandmother used to force down your throat on the proviser that 'its good for you!" And it almost made you hurl! Well modern times have improved a lot of things and this is one of them.
I went down the street to the Rainbow Health Food shop and was going to buy regular fish oil, for its Omega 3 content, may as well
feed the brain, but decided to go with the Cod Liver Oil because it has certain benefits that the pharmacist pointed out which regular fish oil doesn't have.
Norwegian cod liver oil is a super food that is harvested from Norwegian cod that dwell in the north Atlantic off the coast of Norway. This oil is rich in quantities of vitamins and nutrients that you can't get from eating the fish alone. There is no other food source that provides all the health benefits that Norwegian cod liver oil provides.
There is some concern that eating fresh cod can subject yourself to contamination of metals, specifically mercury, lead, cadmium. This problem is removed with the extraction of liver oil from the Norwegian cod. The oil is separated from the liver without the use of chemicals or other artificial means.
All cod liver oils in the U.S. are subject to the strict protocols of the Association of Analytical Communities. They will ensure each imported batch is free of 32 contaminates before they are accepted into the country. This allows you to enjoy all the health advantages of Norwegian cod without having to eat a ton of it or worry about the possibility of ingesting too much mercury or other dangerous metals.
Here is a quick summary of the numerous benefits of Norwegian cod liver oil:
* Treats chronic and infectious diseases
* Improves heart health and prevents of cardio-related diseases
* Can alleviate or reverse diabetes
* Reduces risk of juvenile diabetes for newborns during pregnancy
* Lowers blood pressure

* Has the ability to heal wounds quickly
* Improves skin quality - minimizes wrinkles

* Strengthens the immune system - less susceptibility to illnesses
As you can see, there is a great amount of areas of your health that can be improved by taking daily doses of Norwegian cod liver oil. It is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin A, and vitamin D. Omega-3 fats are the good type of fat that keeps cholesterol levels low and arteries free of plaque. Those who have suffered from heart attacks or other heart diseases will benefit immensely from this fish oil, as it has been shown to greatly improve heart functionality. Omega-3 fats improve your immune system, your memory and your ability to deal with stress.
Norwegian cod liver oil has been shown to maintain soft skin and reduce wrinkles. Thus it acts as a great anti-aging agent. When applied topically it works well for quickly healing wounds and treating rashes.
This oil also provides a decent amount of vitamin D which helps protect your teeth from cavities. You would have to consume of a half pound of fish to get the same amount of vitamin D as you would from just one teaspoon of fish oil. Vitamin D also helps maintain bone health and muscle health. It reduces the symptoms of age-related diseases like osteomalacia and arthritis.
This superfood will have you looking great, feeling great and aging well. If you are looking to provide optimal health for yourself, norwegian cod liver oil should be a must as part of your routine diet plan. http://www.norwegiancodliveroil.net/
For me the main difference I noticed was clarity of thinking, especially after having Cod Liver Oil with dinner and getting a decent nights sleep. Another thing I noticed was far less joint pain. My office and bedroom is on the second floor so I am constantly up and down the stairs, so the knees need to be nimble. When I went out for a jog I breezed along. I have a lot of agility knowing that my bones are strong and my joints are flexible. And when I have to climb up on a scaffold to paint a mural there is nothing worse than feeling like a rusted up robot.
Just beware with fish oil, never take it on an empty stomach. I was once fool enough to have a couple of fish oil capsules on an empty stomach and followed it with a coffee. Let just say there was a violent upheaval. It wasn't pleasant.
The main difference that Cod Liver Oil has that other fish oil do not have is that it contains Vitamin A and D, not just the Omega 3s. Hence it has less Omega 3 content, no problem, just take more of it. A table spoon a day is fine. I find that in general we don't hear much about vitamin A. What is it? What does it do? One thing to remember is that it is toxic in large doses which is why pregnant women should avoid Cod Liver Oil.
Vitamin A plays a role in a variety of functions throughout the body, such as:
- Vision
- Gene transcription
- Immune function
- Embryonic development and reproduction
- Bone metabolism
- Haematopoiesis
- Skin and cellular health
- Antioxidant activity
So before I risk pretending to be a doctor I will say, that Calson's Norwegian Cod Liver Oil is the best I have sampled and they are not paying me to say it. It comes in a glass bottle ( I don't trust those rubbery capsules) and it has a nice lemon flavor which erases the fishy flavor.
Paint a mural the smart way with Cod Liver Oil!
