does cod liver oil causes weight gain?!


Question: Does cod liver oil causes weight gain?
i am a pure veg.. i have no chances of eating fish .but i have heard about the various benefits of cod liver oil. i want to know if it causes any weight gain.. what are the other health benefits or side effects

Answers:

Fats do not cause weight gain, only carbs trigger insulin, the fat storage hormone.

Cod liver oil is high in vit.A & vit.D with a bit of DHA/EPA. I highly recommend cod liver oil but you can't get enough vit.D because of the vit.A - too much vit.A can be toxic. I would recommend you add in fish oil also for the DHA/EPA.

DHA is the most abundant omega-3 fatty acid in the brain and retina. Low levels of DHA have been associated with Alzheimer's disease. DHA is depleted in the cerebral cortex of severely depressed patients.
