In reply to fish oil vitamin A, posted by pseudoname on October 11, 2006, at 17:16:38
Hey...
Just to clarify....there are two types of fish oil, the oil that comes from the liver (eg cod liver oil) and the oil that comes from elsewhere in the fish.... you know, like the flesh etc.
Its the fish oil from the liver thats problematic - or at least, in large quantities.
It'd be fine taking the ultrahigh fish oil, as long as it doesn't say it contains vitamin A on the label...which it should do, I think there are laws on it and stuff.....I would expect that the fish oil you're using comes from the non-liver parts of the fish, as is most 'omega 3 oil' these days.
beta carotine is the vegetable form of vit A and is found in carrots, mangoes, peaches etc - fruit which is orange.... whats what makes it orange! Its also found in some fruits/veggies that are dark green and leafy....
Anyway...
Well I don't hate you! Good to hear that you're depression free.....
Kind regards
Meri
