100% Pure
Norwegian Cod Liver Oil
Research done by the
Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation of San Diego, California and others have
shown a renewed interest in Cod Liver Oil. From the first chapter of Weston Price, D.D.S.’s
book, “Nutrition and Physical Degeneration” ‘X-FACTOR,” or Animal
Protein Factor (A.P.F.), which Is found in butter from cows fed on green grass,
but with very little of It found in butter from cows on dry rations. This APF is necessary to the proper growth and
well being of many types of animals. This
same A.P.F factor was supposed to be in many oils.
The Price-Pottenger Nutrition
Foundation searched everywhere for something that contains this factor. They claim to have tried all types of oils but
in only one product did they find the necessary evidence of a rich X-Factor and
that was Cod Liver Oil. After testing
the varieties of Cod liver Oil available on the market, only one gave the
beautiful royal purple color that proved the presence of A.P.F. (X-Factor) upon
testing.
This Cod Liver Oil is the
crudest form on the market, purposely less refined so as to retain the unsaturated
fatty acids: linoleic, linolenic and arachidonic. The omega-3 fatty acid EPA (eicosapentaenoic
acid), found in cold water fish and marine mammals, nutritionally supports the
heart and cardiovascular function. One
of the primary mechanisms responsible for this is benefit is EPA’s ability to naturally
thin blood and discourage excess blood clotting. Additionally EPA nutritionally supports the
liver in regulating proper LDL and HDL levels (low and high density
lipoproteins). EPA has anti-inflammatory
properties that have positive effects on the immune system.
Cod liver Oil is an effective
source of Vitamin A and Vitamin D. Vitamin
A is critical to healthy tissues and immunity.
Vitamin D helps the body to utilize calcium and phosphorus in building
bone structure and healthy teeth.
