no, it helps u lots of ways: * healthy skin * stronge bone and teeth * healthy joints * healthy cardiovascular systems * healthy nervous system and prevention of depression and other mood disorders * A healthy lining for your digestive tract DHA is a fatty acid that is essential to the health of your nervous system and eyes. It is vital to preventing depression. If you suffer from intermittent or chronic depression, this is one nutrient that you want to get every single day. If you want to get pregnant or are pregnant, you need to eat foods with DHA on a regular basis in order to support proper development of your baby's nervous system and prevent depression during pregnancy and after the baby arrives. I am convinced that the vast majority of cases of post partum (after delivery) depression can be avoided just by taking cod liver oil each day.

EPA is a fatty acid that promotes a healthy cardiovascular system and decreases inflammation throughout your body. Its anti-inflammatory properties makes EPA especially helpful to people who suffer with arthritis. EPA is also closely linked with your emotional health, with many studies showing that it plays a strong role in preventing depression.

Vitamin A is necessary for proper vision, healthy skin, and strong mucosal linings, including the lining of your digestive tract. Many skin and digestive disorders cannot fully heal without a reliable supply of vitamin A.

Vitamin D is essential to maintaining strong bones and teeth. It enhances the strength and efficiency of your immune system, which decreases your risk of developing autoimmune conditions. Vitamin D helps your body regulate its blood sugar levels, playing an important role in preventing type II diabetes. Finally, vitamin D is one of several nutrients that are necessary for preventing high blood pressure.

Is fish liver oil the same as cod liver oil?

"Pretty much. Cod liver oil has to come from the cod fish, whereas fish liver oil can come from any sort of fish."Well, not really. Cod liver oil, as the name suggests, is usually extracted from cod fish livers. But fish oil is obtained by heating flesh or by-products (i.e., leftovers) of fish processing, leading to differences in quality of the oil.Another major distinction - cod liver oil provides resources of vitamin A and vitamin D, in addition to Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), which are widely known as Omega 3 fatty acids. Fish oil is a basic source of Omega 3.Each have their own benefits, and choice should be made accordingly.
