Holland and Barret fish oil capsules are useless, I've tried them before, pre-rpd diet. Only buy raw fermented cod liver oil from Green Pastures as it's one of the very few guaranteed to be raw. You can get that in UK sites such as red23.co.uk but it's cheaper, IMO, buying from the states.

They would seriously sell cooked fish-oil!? wtf... Why though, should it be fermented?

The stuff from H&B did taste so fresh and nice though, but the supermarket ones horrible. It was like the difference between raw carrot and cooked carrot...

The fermented version has higher nutrient-levels and lasts longer. I think if it's unfermented it needs antioxidants or other preservative.

That seems really bad that they are selling fish oils that are cooked...

I'm still eating grain-finished meats at the moment which is why I feel I need to take fish-oil. Are there any raw 'fish oil' sources that you would recommend Tyler, other than Cod Liver Oil? I'm not sure if it being CLO would limit the amount I could have because of the high A&D content..? There is also a site 'iherb.com' where I can get a reduction, can you see anything on that site which would be raw fish oil? Including CLO...

So I would appreciate it if you'd have a look there on iHerb for me, to see if there are any forms of raw fish oil(inc. CLO). Other than that I'd be interested in any non CLO sources of raw fish oil(unless you think there is not a risk of consuming too much Vit.A from CLO in reasonable, regular quantities). You also are confident that fermented fish oil is better than it having added antioxidants?

Krill oil, for those who do not trust the fermented fish oil that burns that back of the throat.

I don't think it matters too much if the cod liver oil is full of vitamins a and d. Just stick to the usual dosage and everything will be fine.

As for other brands of fish-oils, the only suitable one is from Green Pastures. All the others have some sort of heating process etc.

Like William said, you could try Mercola's Krill oil as it is even richer in omega-3s and has negligible amounts of vitamins A and D.

For raw Krill oil are there more options then? Or would I still be limited, for example, to Mercola's Krill oil?

As far as I know.

Good-quality fish organs are hard to find, so I understand why someone would want to take CLO.

But I don't understand why someone would want to take fish oil just for the omega-3 fats. Why not eat raw fatty fish instead?
