9. Can I flavor my unflavored fermented cod liver oil or high vitamin butter oil?

Yes, you can. Add one teaspoon of sea salt to the FCLO to give it a “salty cod” flavor. You could add essential oils, safe for internal consumption, to either the FCLO or the BO. To test it first, use a small amount of FCLO or BO with the essential oil to find a combination that you like.

10. I find the taste intense. What should I do?

Some people like the taste of fermented oils, but others find it unusual or unpleasant. Try chasing the product with water, raw milk, apple sauce, or a small amount of juice. Some mothers use a small amount of raw honey with their children. My children like sucking on a wedge of lemon or lime after consuming fermented oils.

11. How much FCLO or FSLO should I take daily? How many servings will I get with each bottle?

Dose is adjusted by age. Children 3 months to 12 years need 1/2tsp (2.5mL) per day. This is 95 servings per bottle. Children over 12 years and adults need 1tsp (5.0mL) per day. This is 47 servings per bottle. Pregnant and nursing women need 2tsp (10mL) per day. This is 24 servings per bottle. Please go to Cod Liver Oil Basics for further information.

12. How much BO should I take each day?

Use the same amount of BO as FCLO or FSLO for your age.

Eatkamloops.org is Now a Distributor for Green Pasture’s Products

This month Green Pastures offered all Weston A. Price Foundation chapter leaders the option of making wholesale purchases for the benefit of chapter members. This means we can all benefit from these excellent products. Eatkamloops.org is now a distributor for Green Pastures. We will carry fermented cod liver oil, fermented skate liver oil, high vitamin butter oil, and extra virgin coconut oil.

Fermented Cod Liver Oil

High Vitamin Butter Oil

Green Pastures high-vitamin butter oil.

In Dr. Weston A. Price’s book Nutrition and Physical Degeneration, he did studies with children from mill families during a severe industrial depression. These children were chosen because they had developed severe tooth decay. He fed the children one nourishing meal a day and supplemented their diets with cod liver oil and high vitamin butter oil. After seven months on the supplemental diet, the children’s teeth had re-mineralized and the teeth were saved. The health and behavior of the children had improved. Below is a description of the supplemental meal from Nutrition and Physical Degeneration:
The diet provided these children in the supplemental meal was as follows: About four ounces of tomato juice or orange juice and a teaspoonful of a mixture of equal parts of very high-vitamin, natural cod liver oil and an especially high-vitamin butter oil was given at the beginning of the meal. The child then received a bowl containing approximately a pint of a very rich vegetable and meat stew, made largely from bone marrow and fine cuts of tender meats. The meat was usually broiled separately to retain its juice and then chopped very fine and added to the bone-marrow meat soup, which always contained finely chopped vegetables and plenty of very yellow carrots. The next course consisted of cooked fruit, with very little sweetening, and rolls made from freshly ground whole wheat and spread with high vitamin butter. The wheat for the rolls was ground fresh every day in a motor-driven coffee mill. Each child was given also two glasses of fresh whole milk. The menu was varied from day to day by substituting for the meat stew fish chowder or organs of animals.

Fermented Skate Liver Oil

Unfortunately, the cod liver oil produced today is not the same product used by Dr. Weston A. Price in his study. Most modern cod liver oil is refined to such a point that the natural vitamins are removed. Some processors add back synthetic vitamins.

Undated December 27, 2009: Need some more proof? I have just found a very informative blog by Stephan Guyenet called Whole Health Source. This is a link to his writings about Dental Health. There are many very good photos and references for further reading on the topic.
