Mainly cod liver was a natural source of vitamin D, that is how vikings managed to thrive in Northern Europe when in Central Europe people were suffering from rickets. But like they said in the clip, the modern processing destroys some of the vitamins and they get added on later. Smoked cod liver spread on rye bread is lovely, if you like liver, fish and smoke flavour.

@Æsa It's a strange recurring theme (or maybe not so strange if you're conspiracy theorist). Many articles of "best cities to move to" often cite questionable destinations. Montreal is a common example that often top charts, but if you've ever lived there for longer than 3 (summer) months, there's no way you'll list it as a top spot.

First, Most of what has been said here is rubbish, How do I know? well in the early 70's before the Common Market destroyed the British fish industry, I did a couple of trips on a deep sea trawler out of Hull. On the deck there were two big vats which were fired up as soon as we started trawling, These Vats were tended by the Apprentices/Decky learners and the proceeds were shared by those lads, sort of as a bonus to make up for the small size of their share of the main catch. It was Cod Liver Oil vats, But any fish liver went in, Cod, Herring, Skate, even Coley liver went in. It was bought by Seven Seas usually, purified, bottled and sold as Cod Liver Oil. If we only caught Cod it was Cod liver Oil, BUT When other livers went in you couldn't tell the difference, But the lads prefered Cod because it gave the biggest yield. One trip we didn't catch any Cod at all, but the Vats of liver oil was still sold as Cod Liver Oil.

My babci used to drink a shot of cod liver oil every day. In recent decades here in the US cod liver oil has gone down in popularity. It has been replaced by fish body oil from small fish. Usually, sardines, anchovies and mackerel are used. Supposedly, the smaller fish haven't bioaccumulated as much mercury and PCB's as the larger fish. There are processes to remove those toxins from larger fish. Yet, if you have to put vitamins back in why not just take the fish body oil?
@ph0ib0s1

It has a much higher DHA content than fish oil (good for your brain).
By the way, the other fish waste oil is also fit for human consumption if it went through the same process as the cod liver oil. I use salmon oil I purify myself. I think It's quite good with additional nutrients.
I'd rather have the fishy oil over the processed one if it has more vitamins.

The best thing I ever did was start taking a teaspoon of the liquid Cod Liver Oil once a day starting about 4 years ago. I can sure tell the difference in my health. Great video. I always wondered how Cod Liver Oil was produced. Definitely have some great health benefits. When I first started taking CLO I don't think it was going through all of those processes to make it taste better because it was really strong, fishy and really nasty tasty. But I learned how to choke it down. However for the past 2 years I've been taking it, it has been very mild and I don't mind the taste at all though I detect a very slight fish taste.

every nutritionist can tell you the benefits of liver. you could practically live on it. A, D, Magnesium, Potassium, Omega 3 without all the extra omega 6. All very difficult to get from any other source. The heat treating unfortunately destroys most of the vitamin A and D. Sometimes they use liver based vitamin A to supplement it, but often it's a more artificial, less absorbable source. Even without the added A and D, cod liver is a great nutritional supplement.

@@niellalien Honestly, they all taste good to me. The cod liver itself is delicious. The cod liver oil, on the other hand, is definitely an unpleasant gulp but palatable enough when mixing with other food as part of a meal. Recently, I've just been taking cod liver oil as a supplement because the amount of oil in a single can is just a lot. I'm curious how much of the vitamin A and D are in the oil versus the liver itself. I wanted to compare the cost effectiveness of canned cod liver in its own oil versus cod liver oil supplement, but the nutrition labels for the canned cod liver are all over the place despite basically being the same product, so I'm not sure how comparable they all really are. It probably wouldn't hurt to just calculate vitamin A and D per dollar and just go with whatever is cheapest, but, then again, I wouldn't want to reward a manufacturer who inflates the nutritional values, so I'll probably just continue to buy from different companies since they're all essentially the same product. If you're curious, these are the ones I've purchased and enjoyed: Threeline (currently $33 for a 12-pack of 4.3 oz cans-I paid $36) Belveder (currently $39 for a 12-pack of 4.2 oz cans-I paid $38) Sanniti (currently $40 for a 12-pack of 4.3 oz cans-I paid $40) iCan (currently $61 for a 12-pack of 4 oz cans-I paid just $43)
It stands for call of duty...the fish is a veteran 😂
Wonder if unprocessed oil would sell ?
I love cod, especially warzone
thanks
When add the vitamins back in after processing are they synthetic vitamins? Thats not so good!
americans when they find out fish have oil in then: T H E O C E A N K N O W S N O B O U N D S
My Gran used to make me take JELLIED cod liver oil stirred into milk, possibly the most horrible thing I've ever had!
Australian Jade Perch (Barcoo Grunter) has the highest Omega 3 content.
Idk what is this but it seems interesting
my first question when i first knew about fish oil
was it a serious question why they didn´t use herring liver oil? a herring got 30x less liver than a cod! same goes with spawn, we eat cod spawn because even a medium size cod produces 3-4dl of spawn. a herrings spawn can barely fill a teaspoon
do you guys see her skin? it’s that cod liver oil. purrr, off to the market babes 💅👜
Oh My Cod!
I accidentally bit into one of those capsules. The vomit came up immediately. Nastiest experience of my life.
Why would you process it further and diminish the vitamins only to add it back, I bet they add synthetic Vit D to an otherwise already great organic product

Hope chinese guys will invent lab made liver oil. Cheaper.
I wish I was more into fish. I gag walking pass the sea food section at the grocer. :(
