Post I have one comment here, Sydney...

When you use cod liver oil, you are getting Vits A and D, with only "some"
EFAs. YOu cannot safely increase doses to get more EFAs with this, because
vits A and D are toxic if used in high doses. So if your goal is Vit D..then cod liver oil is a good source.

If your goal is to increase EPA and DHA from fish oil, then this is not a good
choice. Fish body oils are what are used for this purpose. Cod liver oil comes from the LIVER of the fish...and is different.

So since you are being supervised, please keep this in consideration.

Please keep us advised as to your progress!
