Question: What are the health benefits of taking Cod Liver Oil!?
I have a bad Vit D deficiency, I take a Vit D tablet every day and try to get sunlight, but it's still not real good - will Cod Liver Oil help!? Are there side effects to taking too much Cod Liver Oil and/or Vitamin D!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Perhaps you need fortified cod liver oil that has been fortified with extra vitamin D and vitamin A!. The capsules contain 4,000 IU of vitamin A and 400 IU of vitamin D!. One capsule a day is fine!. Two a day is perhaps overdoing it!. Vitamin D is very good for your bones but you need calcium (dairy products) as well!. Vitamin A is good for your skin and eye health!.
Plain unfortified cod liver oil capsules only contain about 10% or even less vitamin A and D than the fortified capsules!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Cod Liver Oil contains Vit A and D---only a teaspoonful is required to be taken every day--unlike Vit B and C , Vit A&D gets accumulated in the body and can cause serious side effects!.The health benefits are that it protects the body from coughs and colds and is mostly given to growing children!.
