Nordic Naturals Cod Liver Oil

I have read from many online sources that Nordic Naturals is one of the best fish oils to use and many mamas I know swear by it. It is made from 100% cod liver oil and not only is it tested for any contaniments but it is also derived from some of the purest waters. My lovely naturopath gave me a bunch of samples of orange and lemon flavored cod liver oil and I used them all. The fact that my naturopath recommends this stuff means a lot to me too because she really does her homework on supplements and we have certainly seen the effectiveness of many of the supplements recommended by her.

My kids would not take it even though it was flavored (there is a strawberry flavor too) because there is still a definite fish taste behind the flavor. The oil is thick just like any other oil and I find it a bit hard to swallow but I know the health benefits outweigh the moment of discomfort. I didn’t experience any bad aftertastes or burps but I usually kept a glass of water on the counter for drinking right after taking my spoonful of the Nordic Naturals Cod Liver Oil.

Would I buy it or recommend it to a friend? Most certainly. It does have a clear, pure taste and I prefer spoonfuls over large horsepills. I also feel much better when I take fish oil from any source. My tendonitis inflammation is noticeably decreased which makes doing everyday things a whole lot easier.
