The Daily Gleaner - London EnglandMonday November 4th 1901 “Two Hundred years of experience has proven that there is no substitute for Cod Liver Oil. The greatest scientists in the world have never been able to produce a substitute for it. The most eminent physicians in Europe and America have spent years in a vain attempt to produce artificially a preparation that would take the place of Cod Liver Oil.” SCOTT & BOWNE, Mfg chemist New York
Dr. Royal Lee on Cod Liver Oil “All natural vitamins are complexes. Natural vitamin A contains a special fat soluble synergist that physiologically lowers high blood pressure just as natural cod liver oil contains a synergist of vitamin D that promotes the assimilation of calcium by the body cells, whereas the pure vitamin D will rob the cells of calcium.” Address to the American Academy of Applied Nutrition Huntington Hotel, Pasadena, California. May 24, 1953
Vitamin News “It would seem that we are not justified in considering rat units of Vitamin D in irradiated ergosterol as being equivalent to the same number of rat units of Vitamin D in cod liver oil as a curative or prophylactic remedy for rickets.” Barnes, D. J., (Brady, M. J. and James, E. W., Comparative Value of Irradiated Ergosterol and Cod Liver Oil as a Prophylactic Antirachitic Agent When Given in Equivalent Dosage According to the Rat Unit of Vitamin D, American Journal of Diseases of Children, 39:45, 1930 Vitamin D factor in viosterol and cod liver oil are not identical. Ten times as many Vitamin D units in viosterol do not give as much protection as plain cod liver oil. (Abstract of DeSanctic, Rudolph and Craig, J. D., A Five-Year Clinical Study of the Prophylactic Value of Antirachitic Agents, New York State Journal of Medicine 34:16, 712-714, 1934).
Vitamin News (continued) Researchers have shown that the natural sources of Vitamin D such as cod-liver oil, butter and yeast also contain potent forms of Vitamin F. It is this Vitamin F of cod liver oil that, no doubt, is responsible for the vast difference between the clinical performance of the cod liver oil and purified or synthetic Vitamin D (such as Viosterol), that is so well known today.
Dr. Royal Lee – Vitamin D Conversations in NutritionApril 1955 What do you think of vitamin D preparations such as cod liver oil? Cod liver oil is the best form of all for vitamin D. If you get natural cod liver oil that has not been meddled with or altered or concentrated or enriched. It has been proven very emphatically because in treating surgical wounds they use cod liver oil to speed up healing and it won’t work if you don’t use the natural oil without any changes.
Dr. Royal Lee – Vitamin FConversations in NutritionApril 1955 What can you tell us about vitamin F? If you use natural cod liver oil, you get the two vitamins together ( D & F) and you never know they existed. But when you take them apart and take the synthetic D alone, then you are in trouble. Synthetic vitamin D has killed thousands of youngsters because it caused calcification of the kidneys and created a vitamin F deficiency.
Are Your Patients Getting Enough Vitamin A & D? National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data, at least 50 percent of people in the United States could be consuming less than the recommended daily allowance of vitamin A. NHANES data also suggests that almost all of us (90 percent) are deficient in vitamin D.Products like Cod Liver Oil, with or without additional supplementation, could help meet each patient’s individual need.
Dr. Royal Lee – Vitamin News Vitamin F, the fat-soluble growth principle found associated with E, and acting to oppose the action of Vitamin D in maintaining calcium balance in the blood, appears to be the specific antidote for D poisoning. It is apparently present in cod liver oil and this would account for the great difference in toxicity of cod-liver oil D as compared to irradiated ergosterol.
Dr. Royal Lee – Vitamin News (continued) Thus, if the diet is deficient in both fat-soluble vitamins A and D, as for instance when olive oil replaces cod liver oil, the following abnormalities develop… • Thickening of the gingival region • Hypertrophy of the sub-gingival epithelium, with the development of finger-like processes. • Irregular alignment of some of the teeth and tilting of the teeth in relation to the jaw • Irregular thickness of the periodontal membrane
The Process • Short path distillation is a method which removes metals, PCBs and other toxins to below detectable levels for human consumption. There are different levels of Molecular distillation. • Standard Process Cod Liver Oil is not bleached with clays and does not go through a deodorization or an esterification process which will denature and refine oil as well as break down triglycerides and separate the fatty acids from glycerine
Natural Unrefined Cod Liver Oil HasMore Than Just Retinyl Palmitate
Contains Naturally Occurring Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) CoQ10 is a fat-soluble substance used in the body’s energy-generating processes. The minimal processing selected for Standard ProcessCod Liver Oil has the beneficial effect of retaining CoQ10 from cod livers.
Ålesund Norway – Cod liver oil capital • 3 Cod species • No added vitamin A or D • Every batch tested for contaminants • Each serving is an excellent source of naturally occurring vitamins A and vitamin D complexes
General Recommendations for Vitamin D • Minimum blood levels of vitamin D should be above 29 ng/mL and optimal between 32-100 ng/mL • Supplementing with 2500-3000 IU’s of vitamin D daily for two months should increase to within normal levels (this is not including all the other sources of D in the diet or sunshine) • Consider three Cataplex D and three CLO daily for two months • A maintenance dose of 1000 IU’s daily of vitamin D from all sources
CLO during pregnancy Use of cod liver oil during pregnancy is associated with lower risk of Type I diabetes in the offspring. This effect was found only in mothers taking cod liver oil, not in mothers taking multivitamin supplements. Cod liver oil taken by nursing mothers improves the breast milk by increasing the amount of fatty acids, which promotes brain development, and the amount of vitamin A, which helps prevent infections, but the level of vitamin D is unchanged. Stene, L. C., et al. Use of cod liver oil during pregnancy associated with lower risk of Type I diabetes in the offspring. Diabetologia. 43(9):1093-1098, 2000
Use of cod liver oil during the first year of life is associated with lower risk of childhood-onset type 1 diabetes: a large, population-based, case-control study Use of cod liver oil in the first year of life was associated with a significantly lower risk of type 1 diabetes (adjusted odds ratio: 0.74; 95% CI: 0.56, 0.99). Cod liver oil may reduce the risk of type 1 diabetes, perhaps through the anti-inflammatory effects of long-chain n-3 fatty acids. American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. 78(6):1128-1134, 2003

Low vitamin D status linked to higher risk of diabetes Deficiency in vitamin D may be associated with an increased risk of developing type 1 diabetes, according to new research. The study published in Diabetologia finds a correlation between serum levels of vitamin D3 and subsequent incidence of Type 1 diabetes. Led by Dr. Cedric Garland and colleagues from the University of California, San Diego, USA, the team performed a six year analysis of nearly 2,000 people — finding higher levels of serum vitamin D3, known as 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], are associated with a lower incidence of the disease. Therefore a preventive roll of vitamin D is suggested Diabetologia volume 55, issue 12, pags 3224-3227, November 2012

The author reports that cod liver oil provides substantial relief for autism patients • I am using natural lipid soluble concentrated cis form of vitamin A in cod liver oil to bypass blocked G protein pathways and turn on these central retinoid receptors. In a few days, most of these children regain eye contact and some say their “box” of clear vision grows. After two months on vitamin-A treatment some of these children, when given a single dose of bethanechol [a drug related to acetlycholine, a substance that transmits nerve impulses] to stimulate pathways in the parasympathetic system in the gut, focus, laugh, concentrate, show a sense of humor and talk after 30 minutes, as if reconnected. This improves cognition, but they are still physically ill. When these children get the MMR vaccine, their vitamin A stores are depleted and they cannot compensate for blocked pathways. Lack of vitamin A, which has been called “the anti-infective agent,” leaves them immuno-suppressed. They lack cell-mediated immunity. T cell activation, important for long term immune memory, requires 14-hydroxy retro-retinol. On cod liver oil, the only natural source of this natural substance, the children get well. • One week ago my oldest son, who is gifted but dyslexic, had twelve neighborhood friends over for dinner. As I looked around the table, all of these children but one had dilated pupils. After two-and-one-half months of taking vitamin A and D in cod liver oil, my son announced, “I can read now! The letters don’t jump around on the page anymore!” He is able to focus and his handwriting has improved dramatically. Megson, Mary, MD. Autism and Vaccinations. Weston A. Price Foundation.
Cod Liver Oil and Breast Cancer In an on-going case-control study, researchers found that increased vitamin D, either through sun exposure or dietary intake, reduced a woman's risk of breast cancer. Thus far, the team has reviewed data from 576 breast cancer cases identified through the Ontario Cancer Registry and 813 controls identified through randomly selected residential telephone calls. The cases were diagnosed between July 1, 2003 and June 30, 2004 and were aged 20 to 58 years. Women who worked an outdoor job, which would increase sun exposure, had a 40% reduction in the risk of breast cancer relative to those who had not (95% CI, 0.48-0.75). Women who participated in outdoor activities had a reduced risk of breast cancer. Women who participated in more than 6 outdoor activities per week between the ages of 10 and 19 had a 45% risk reduction, relative to those who had fewer than four activities. Women who participated in more than 5 activities between the ages of 20 and 29 had a 28% reduced risk relative to those with fewer than 3 outdoor activities. Outdoor activities included both physically active and inactive ones, suggesting that it was a link to sun exposure rather than exercise. In terms of dietary intake, the researchers asked participants about cod liver oil. Women who took cod liver oil for 10 years or more had a 34% reduced risk, relative to those who did not (95% CI, 0.40-1.00).

Dear Standard Process, As a mother of two children and a personal trainer, I knew the importance of a quality omega 3 oil supplement, but your new Cod Liver Oil far surpassed my wildest expectations. My eighteen year old son has dealt with cystic acne for the last four years. Dealing with the discomfort and self-image issues have been a struggle for him. After speaking with a dermatologist, and against my better judgment, we had considered prescription medication for this condition. Although less than two weeks have passed since he first started taking 6 Cod Liver Oil perles per day, we noticed significant improvement within a few days. The inflammation and redness have since disappeared and his skin is well into the healing process. No other changes were made to my son’s daily routine which tells me the results we have seen in such a short time have come from Standard Process Cod Liver Oil. Thank you again for your commitment to providing another exceptional supplement…Cod Liver Oil! Lisa Bennett, BS, CPT
