Hello Lois,

Thanks for your post. Cod liver oil is sourced from the Atlantic Cod fish from the North Atlantic Ocean. Blackmores Cod Liver Oil is extracted from the fresh livers of the cod. This oil is a natural source of vitamin A, vitamin D and also contains EPA and DHA.

All the best and please contact the Blackmores Advisory Service on advice@blackmores.com.au for further support.

Kindest,

Is this cod liver oil (CLO) concentrated or fortified in any way? An equivalent amount of liquid Melrose Cod Liver Oil (1ml) provides 187.5µg RE, 2µg cholecalciferol, as well as DHA/EPA in a typical 10:10-10:8 CLO ratio; 100mg and 97mg respectively. Blackmores does not list DHA/EPA, and its RE/cholecalciferol are 300µg and 2.5µg per 1ml respectively.

Where is the proof that the Vitamin A levels in your supplement are not excessive for western diets? I'm not convinced either way.
