The large amount of Vitamin A present in Cod Liver Oil aids vision, is vital for healthy growth and resistance, and is beneficial for the skin and mucous membranes. Vitamin D regulates blood levels of calcium and phosphorous – minerals which are vital for healthy bones and teeth.

The Omega-3 fatty acids found in Cod Liver Oil are a form of polyunsaturated fats, which, unlike saturated fats, are good for you and are increasingly recognised as important to human health. Researchers have found that without a good supply of Omega 3’s, the body will use saturated fat to construct cell membranes and as a result these cell membranes are not very elastic thus making it harder for the heart to return to a resting state. The polyunsaturated fats in Cod Liver Oil are thus not only good for the heart and circulation but are also thought to improve memory and cognitive function as a result. Above all, Cod Liver Oil is valued for its ability to help soothe the pain associated with Osteoarthritis by thickening the fluid in the joints.
