when people learn that odin loves to start his day with a serving of cod liver oil mixed with juice, we usually get quizzical looks – people still give their kids that icky stuff that grandmothers used to force down the gullets of their kids?

maybe grandma was on to something. cod liver oil is a fantastic source of omega fatty acids which research has shown to be important for brain development.

and even more interestingly for us, babies born before 33 weeks gestation have insufficient levels of DHA and fish oil for preemies may boost cognition.

carlson makes odin’s con liver oil of choice and is tested to be free of detectable levels of mercury, cadmium, lead and PCB’s.

if you ask him, he really will tell you that it tastes pretty darned good.

and, of course, it’s perfectly perfect that odin’s favorite cod liver oil would be norwegian 🙂
