  • Try Healthspan St Clements Cod Liver OIL it does not taste fishy at all especially if you keep it in the fridge,does'nt repeat either maybe because it contains pure orange oil and lemon oil.£4.89 300ml https://www.healthspan.co.uk also this is the ONLY UK oil not to have synthetic Vitamins A+D (also very important to your heatlh) added after refining.Also came best on tests for lowest pollutants by MAFF.

    *Stop press!*

    Results of road test just in. I think my fridge is not working properly. :(

    Seriously. I put the Zipvit stuff in the fridge when it arrived and I took it out this morning and it was lukewarm.

    Anyway, I had my cup of tea at the ready and took my 5ml spoonful....and yes it was definately lukewarm. :rotfl:

    As Ted says, it's really not that bad. Not nice exactly, but certainly not bad. It is repeating on me a little but that's ok as it's not like fish oil, more like Terry's Chocolate Orange. :D

  • Stop press from Ted too.
    Food Standards Agency fish consumption recommendations
    In a previous post I said the maximum fresh oily fish consumption was 4 portions a week. It is, but NOT for nursing mothers, or those pregnant or wishing to become pregnant and including ALL girls under 16 yrs old who should limit OILY fish to a MAXIMUM of 2 portions a week.
    This is why it is my considered opinion that fish oil supplements are useful as a way of ensuring an adequate amount of omega 3 is available.

    Those interested in knowing more about the importance of Vitamin D might like to read How Much Vitamin D Is Enough?In Boston, Detroit, and Chicago, for example, there’s enough sunshine only from April through October.
    You may be as surprised as I was to see how far North the UK is in comparision with those cities Multimap if you click the side arrow until you get to France you will see how much of the UK is deficient in Vit D in Winter.
    This explains to some extent why folk who have ops in the winter take longer to recover, and also possibly why MS is more prevalent the further north you go.

  • just to say to anyone with children with adhd or add like mine then please try the zipvit omega 3 juice, it has for me and my family a life saver.
    my ds was emotional all the time coulndn't concentrate at all, very hard work always playing up causing trouble and fighting. now after taking the omega 3 juice from zipvit he is a different child he still has his moments as all children do! but even school have noticed a difference in his concentration.
    just give it time to work it took a month before we saw a change. Now i wouldn't be without it. thanks ted for telling me about zipvit and the durham trials. :T

    I do agree with you but I realise that not everyone does agree with me so if shokadelika or anyone else prefers to pay extra and buy from Healthspan voucher CAR-LAU £3.00 off internet orders over £18 till 31-10-05 they may as well get £3.00 off the price.
    but perhaps fluffybunnyyou wasn't aware that my Zipvit Omega Juice was a link to WWW.ZIPVIT.COM

    Thanks everyone - esp Ted. My son has been having Eye-q for the past two years. Now I have ordered some Omega 3 juice from vitfit after reading all the threads on this. He is in year 9 at school now, so some additional concentration would be good. By the sounds of it, they deliver quite quickly, so we should be able to try it soon.

    Where can I find out how much a woman who is pregnant should take?

    Did a search on google and found this.

    http://www.babycentre.co.uk/expert/541094.html

    ""If you're not a big fish eater, you could take a fish oil supplement, but do make sure you choose one formulated specially for pregnant women."" This is because those that are not made especially for pregnant woman could be made from fish liver and would therefore contain vitamin A which of course you should not be taking when conceiving or pregant.

    Look like I will be using Eye Q's pregnant woman Omega brand .. and they are very expensive!!! Does anyone know of any other special Omega brands that are especially for pregnant woman?
