For those who do not know, the FCLO and related products we make 'taste horrible'.... or is it , 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder' :).
We do not control what the fish eat. The fish are wild caught. As a result there are wide swings in taste, odor, color, texture.
Our products are the real deal. There is a reason why Cod Liver oil has had a historical imprint in our memories as being something we needed but dreaded to take.
We have posted this previously but it has been some time. People do have a variety of reactions or observations taking oils. Here is one of my Email replies to this question. This person indicated that she feels sluggish or in general does not do as well taking the fclo.
"All are different, many get the opposite reaction. Strength stamina, euphoria etc...are common traits when taking FCLO.
I want to share a short family experience as it relates to FCLO.
As many in our community know Barb and I have 6 children ages 18 to 3 years. The youngest (Basil) is our pickiest when it comes to FCLO. He will not take the FCLO even hidden in food if he can detect it. He is too young to use discipline for the task so it has been either on the skin or hidden in foods.
Dale Alexander (The King of Cod). discussed in one of his books ('How to End Dry Skin' i think is the name of the book) how ear wax production can be stimulated by taking clo. ' take 1 tablespoon of clo per day until your ear wax is flowing then stop or cut back'.
Take 1 cup Yogurt, 1 tsp FCLO ( or Blended FCLO/BO), and Fruit of your liking. Blend. Pour into ice cube trays and put sticks into each cube then Freeze.
You can mix stronger FCLO if the fruit selection has a stronger flavor.... Trial and error rule
Share this with others, Post on different blog sights. This is a great/easy way to take the FCLO.
Wow, this one is a great idea. i just recvd this comment and have not asked for permission to display name so i will give as she has shared less the name. What a great idea.... Peanut Butter.
Our family includes 6 children from the age of 2 to 18. My oldest 3 girls take the Mediterranean and chase with water. They will take other flavors, as it is a requirement in our house, but the Mediterranean is the one they grumble the least.
The two year old boy (Basil) is the picky one. He is too young to discipline so we either hide the FCLO and Butter Oil in food or when we change his diaper we lube his buns with fclo/bo.
As far as dosing goes, I have been asking patients to take 3ml or 3 capsules of fclo along with 2.5ml or 3 capsules of bo. What I have found is that for people in good health this works pretty well to raise vit D levels from the 10's-20's up to 40's-80's.
SPRING 2009 Wise Traditions 26 When I began to import cod liver oil, in order to sell it along with the high-vitamin butter oil I was manufacturing, I felt it imperative to go to Iceland and Norway to visit the various cod liver oil factories there. At that time, most cod liver oil in America was imported from Scandinavia, with a small amount coming from China. What I learned is described in an article published in the Fall, 2005 issue of Wise Traditions and posted at westonaprice.org: "Update on Cod Liver Oil Manufacture Returning to Traditional Production Techniques for the Quintessential Sacred Food By David Wetzel"
It was brought to my attention that a chef uses the fermented clo on salads. I think this is a great way to add deep nutrition to your family and guests dinning experience. Food should not only have a great taste experience but offer the connoisseur a deep and broad range of nutrients. There is not a better way to capture both taste and nutrition if you find the right application for the fermented clo.
You can try to use Fermented clo in place of anchovies on your favorite Caesar Salad or simply sprinkle over the top of any salad.
Here is a collection both old and new ways to take 'Real' clo and bo. If you have some of your family's dosing success stories to share with the community please forward using the contact link on this web page and i will consider adding to the list.
1. Melt the butter oil in 1-2 ounces of warm water and mix with fermented clo and maybe a tea or lemon juice. down the hatch
2. take on a spoon with a little honey or maple syrup.
3. melt on oatmeal or similar
4. take straight up and enjoy the wake up energy the fermented clo provides to your senses
