mg
Indications:
Eleven Seas Cod Liver Oil Capsules - It is a rich
natural source of vitamins A and D which help
maintain healthy skin, hair, nails, teeth and bones.
Description:
The omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil help to
balance the omega-6 fatty acids, which are found
mostly in vegetable oils. When these two groups of
fatty acids are out of balance, the body releases
chemicals that promote inflammation. People appear
to produce more of these inflammatory chemicals when
experiencing psychological stress (e.g., academic
examinations). With a fatty acid imbalance,
inflammatory response to stress appears to be
amplified.
Contraindications:
People with heart disease or diabetes should
consult their doctor before taking more than 3g of
cod oil a day as there is some evidence to suggest
that the supplement may raise cholesterol levels and
blood sugar levels
Side effects
While those with
heart disease
and
diabetes
have often been reported to benefit from
supplementation with fish oil, both groups should
check with their doctor before taking more than 3
grams of fish oil per day for several months.
Elevations in blood sugar and
cholesterol
levels may occur in some people who take fish oil.
The
increase in blood sugar appears to be related in
part to the amount of fish oil used. Some evidences
suggest that adding vitamin E to fish oil may
prevent the fish oil-induced increase in blood sugar
levels. While
supplementation with fish oil consistently lowers
triglycerides,
the effect of fish oil on LDL (“bad”) cholesterol
varies, and in some people, fish oil supplementation
has been reported to increase LDL levels. People who
took fish oil and who also took 15 grams of pectin
per day were reported to have reductions in LDL
cholesterol.
This suggests that pectin may overcome the
occasional problem of increased LDL cholesterol
reported in people who supplement with fish oil. The
LDL-cholesterol raising effect of EPA and
DHA has also
been reported to be prevented by taking
garlic
supplements (or presumably including garlic in the
diet) along with EPA and DHA.
Warnings
Exceeding the suggested intake is not
recommended. Women who are pregnant or planning a
pregnancy should consult their doctor before taking
vitamin or mineral supplements. Keep out of the
