  • Cod liver oil is very healthy but why does it taste so bad? Dr. Bryan has the answer and why it doesn't have to be that way.

    If you take 2 teaspoons daily of fresh cod liver oil from a glass bottle, it also has good taste, especially if lemon is added. You know its fresh because you must take note of the expiry date. Plus the cost is a bit lower in the bottle. Also it is important to keep the bottle in the fridge.

    My mum is almost 96 , and she eats cod liver every day. One tin , 120 grams , 4 oz. , lasts her 3 days. The brand is “ Officer “ , Smoked Cod Liver , from fresh ,wild cod. Here in Australia it is $ 5. I eat it too . On the first day it’s delicious, afterwards,I eat it with drinking a little milk to kill the taste …mum is still mentally ok , she walks short distances…blame it on years of cod liver.

    The problem is the cost. If you look at the label, cod liver oil as an oil provides 3-4 times more EPA/DHA per serving (for about the same cost) compared to the softgels.

    I love eating cod liver from a tin, by spreading it on a sourdough bread toast. It's yummy! The tin contains just about enough material for 3-4 toast slices, which is good enough for 1-2 days for one person. So, by the time I am craving for it again, there is not enough time for the oil to get rancid.

    When tested, many fish oil capsules are found to be already rancid...which offsets much of the health benefits. It might be that one has to buy PRESCRIPTION fish oil with its higher purity. Unfortunately, medical fish oil usually is expensive.

      Yes , I always swallow the pill , never chew it .
      The pill help to swallow . You only chew medicine tablet , because you can’t swalow it.
      For example : Apple Cider vinegar ( ACV) , If we use it in liquid form , we have to dilute it with water , but when drinking , it still causes hot in throat , so to avoid this uncomfortable feeling , we can buy ACV in the form of pill & swallow it .

      Cod liver oil in any container that you open and close soon becomes rancid. Soft gels remain fresh since the oil is not exposed to the air. If you are consuming it all when you open the container it is fine.
