Description: Halibut Liver Oil is an excellent source of preformed vitamins A and D. It is especially useful for individuals with digestive problems since they may have difficulty converting beta carotene into vitamin A. A fat soluble vitamin, vitamin A promotes healing and helps to boost the immune system. It benefits the eyes as well as soft tissue. Vitamin D, the sunshine vitamin, is also fat soluble and acts as a hormone to assist the body's absorption and utilization of calcium. It helps bones and teeth, stabilizes the nervous system and helps the blood and cardiac system, muscles and many body systems.
Although fish liver oils are excellent sources of preformed vitamin A, they should not be relied on as a source of essential fatty acids. You would consume to much vitamin A and D before getting the required amounts of essential fatty acids. Excellent sources of essential fatty acids are Omega Factors (omega-3, 6, 9), Learning Factors (omega-3, 6), Evening Primrose Oil (omega-6), Flaxseed Oil (primarily omega-3) and fish oils (omega-3), i.e. Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil, Tuna Oil. Natural Factors uses advanced molecular distillation processing methods to protect the Halibut Liver Oil while ensuring that there is no heavy metal or chemical contamination.
