Cod Liver Oil Benefits

Synthetic vs. Real?What’s the difference?

Our fermented cod liver oil is a superfood that contains real vitamins that your body can use. Real vitamins found in food are made up of many different compounds that act together to deliver nutrients to your body in a way that your body can use. Synthetic vitamins that are made in a lab are often hard for your body to digest. Watch this video to learn more about real vs. synthetic.

“You know that Vitamin D is good for you. But, what’s up with synthetic vitamins? How are they different from real ones? Real vitamins found in food are made up of many different compounds that act together to deliver nutrients to your body in a way that your body can use. Synthetic vitamins, on the other hand, consist of a single compound that’s been made in a lab. Without the other compounds, your body has a hard time using these vitamins. That’s why Green Pasture Products’ Cod Liver Oil is so effective. It’s a superfood that contains real vitamins A and D in forms that your body can absorb and use. Explore our website to learn more or order your cod liver oil today! Remember oral to overall health starts with good nutrition.”

Science Backed Health Benefits of Cod Liver Oil

Cod liver oil contains essential nutrients, and has been used for generations to treat such things a inflammation and rickets. It also aids in bone health, digestion, and feeding the brain. These nutrients are also found in our Fermented Cod Liver Oil.

Our Fermented Cod Liver Oil contains a natural balance of omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins A & D. These nutrients are readily absorbed and used in the body, which lead to a variety of oral and overall health benefits.

Good Nutrition Leads to Oral Health

A pioneer in researching the link between oral health and nutrition, Dr.Weston A. Price argued that “fat-soluble vitamins have been deficient in practically every case of active tooth decay.” He also believed that “the combination of cod liver oil and butter oil works synergistically and is more potent when taken together than either one on its own.” 

What exactly is Fermented Cod Liver Oil?

Fermented Cod Liver Oil is simply cod liver oil extracted from cod livers using fermentation as the extraction method. Fermentation of cod livers has a long historical importance in human nutrition going back to biblical times. We named it Fermented Cod Liver Oil to pay homage to this traditional time-honored extraction method.

What makes our Fermented Cod Liver Oil different?

The extraction of cod liver oil from the cod livers using fermentation makes it truly unique. How? This process is so gentle that it shields the fragile nutrients, and keeps them in a natural form that your body recognizes as food.

We exclusively use Alaska Cod that is wild-caught by Alaskan Leader in the Aleutian Island region of Alaska. It is MSC certified, which means that it is traceable from ocean to bottle.

What are the levels of vitamin A and D in the Fermented Cod Liver Oil?

The natural levels of vitamins A and D will vary in cod liver oil depending on the source, season, diet, and age of the cod. Since our cod liver oil is all-natural and made in small batches, the levels will vary accordingly.
