The body needs vitamins A and D to support its bones, eyes and liver, as well as cardiovascular and immune health. Considering the insufficient intake of these vitamins in the United States, people may want to consider talking with a health care professional about the benefits of adding cod liver oil containing naturally occurring vitamins A and D to a diet.

Whole food supplement manufacturer Standard Process Inc. now offers a new option for supplementing with natural vitamin A and vitamin D: Cod Liver Oil. Available in convenient natural lemon-flavored perles, Cod Liver Oil is minimally processed to retain cod liver’s naturally occurring profile of vitamins A and D, omega-3 fatty acids like EPA and DHA, and coenzyme Q10 to aid health.

Standard Process spent years assessing suppliers in order to find top quality suppliers to meet its exacting standards: no added vitamin A or vitamin D; minimally processed to provide an oil with as many of the beneficial factors (like coenzyme Q10) as possible; and safe for daily consumption.

“The result of this persistence is a pure oil,” says David Barnes, Ph.D., director of research and development for Standard Process. “By pure we mean each step of the process was evaluated. Of the 10 most common processing steps, we were able to remove four, allowing us to provide a safe, clean product while maintaining the naturally occurring vitamin A, vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, and at least one synergistic factor, coenzyme Q10.”
