Healthy Minute- Cod Liver Oil

I know you probably just wrinkled up your nose, but cod liver oil is an amazing powerhouse! It contains omega fatty acids along with Vitamins A and D. These three things are seriously lacking in American diets. We can't safely get all the Vitamin D our bodies need from sunlight alone! And many people are deficient in Vitamin D without knowing it. Vitamin A is so good for our eyes and our skin, and omega fatty acids help our brains. Sounds like an anti-anging potion!
There are many different sources out there, but the best ones are fermented. The fermenting process exracts the nutrients without the use of heat- so you get more of the nutrients. Plus, it makes it easier for our bodies to digest and absorb.
Personally, I use Green Pastures Fermented Cod Liver Oil and Butter Oil. The Butter Oil adds a whole new host of nutrients for your body.
The price looks mighty steep, but you only take 1/4 tsp a day! The jar lasts forever! And they come in these flavors- cinnamon is my favorite.
