How does cod liver oil differ from fish oil that is high in EPA and DHA?
Cod liver oil is not a good source of EPA and DHA. Cod liver oil in liquid and supplement form has been around for many years. While cod liver oil is beneficial for overall health, it is not high in eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). In particular, these two polyunsaturated fats are associated with health promotion particularly cardiovascular and brain health. If you are looking for these health benefits, then you should supplement your diet with a supplement like VitaMedica’s Super EPA/DHA Fish Oil.
