Product Description
Cod Liver Oil is excellent source of Omega 3, Omega 6 and Vitamins A, C and D.
Cod Liver Oil is an old fashioned product that continues to be a superior HEALTH BOOSTER.
FACT: NO OTHER product contains the most rapidly available Vitamin A in its natural form as Cod Liver Oil. Vitamin A, as we all know, is a powerful antioxidant and boosts our immune system.
Our unrefined Cod Liver Oil is a rich source of natural vitamin A, vitamin D, and the essential fatty acids: linoleic, linolenic, arachidonic, eicosapentaenoic (EPA), and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids. These nutrients are critical for normal metabolism, brain and nerve function, and protecting and building the immune system. EPA and DHA are long-chain, omega-3 fatty acids found in cold-water fish and marine mammals that support a healthy cardiovascular system. Nutritionists recommend supplementing the diet with a small amount of cod liver oil, especially during the winter months, to ensure adequate dietary intake of vitamin A and vitamin D.
From the Vitamin D Council: Vitamin D is not really a vitamin at all - it is a pre-hormone that's produced in your skin in response to sunlight exposure. As such, it is an integral part of human health and longevity.
The use of cod liver oil by human beings is a very old practice. Cod Liver Oil was used by doctors for the first half of the 20th century as a natural source of fat-soluble nutrients, before it was replaced by concentrated, synthetic sources. The famous dentist and nutrition researcher, Dr. Weston A. Price, was able to completely reverse rampant dental carries (and other physical and mental problems) by providing one supplemental meal daily, consisting of whole grains, fruit, vegetable and meat stew, high vitamin butter oil, and cod liver oil (Price, 1939). His study of 14 primitive races throughout the world demonstrated that the fat-soluble nutrients were the most rare and valuable elements of the diet. These same nutrients are essentially depleted from modern civilized diets. Dr. Price wrote, "There is a misapprehension with regard to the possibility that humans may obtain enough of the vitamin D group of activators from our modern plant foods or from sunshine. It will be noted that vitamin D, which the human does not readily synthesize in adequate amounts, must be provided by foods of animal tissues or animal products." A daily dose of Sonne Old Fashion Cod Liver Oil will help ensure a proper, natural supply. This is a daily vitamin supplement that can benefit everyone!
Our Sonne Cod Liver Oil uses natural Norwegian cod liver oil derived from fish caught in open waters in the North Atlantic Ocean – away from sites of industrial pollution. In order to ensure that our Cod Liver Oil is safe for consumption, we routinely use an independent laboratory to test for heavy metals and environmental contaminants (such as organochlorides). Our oil is processed without the use of chemicals or heat. We purposely leave it unrefined, so it retains the natural balance of vitamins and fatty acids. We are NOT interested in refining out its natural "fishy" taste and smell at the expense of the natural nutritional content and balance.
If you feel the sniffles, congestion, flu or a cold coming on this winter, its time to pull out the Cod Liver Oil.
People who smoke, drink caffeine, use steroids, or are under stress need higher amounts of these important vitamins in Cod Liver Oil.

Customer Question:
Has Sonne’s stopped adding synthetic vitamins a and d into this product?
Sonne Answer:
No we have not used synthetic vitamin additives.
Our Cod liver oil is by Molecular Distillation a process primarily used to concentrate omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) in fish oil, and remove contaminants. It is refined at a very low temperature. Our product is filled to the top so there is not enough area for oxygen to get in to make it rancid.
There is some natural A & D - however, we have had to add some, in order to keep up with the daily allowance.
The A is Retinyl Palmitate and the D is D3 Cholecaliferol.
