About Cod liver
Cod liver, harvested from Atlantic cod, is a nutrient-dense food prized for its exceptional health benefits. Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin A, and vitamin D, it supports brain function, immune health, and bone strength. This organ meat, with origins in Nordic and Scandinavian cuisines, has been a dietary staple for centuries, often consumed fresh, canned, or in oil form. Its robust, slightly buttery flavor makes it a unique addition to dishes like salads, pâtés, and spreads. Cod liver oil, derived from its processing, is widely recognized for its therapeutic properties. However, due to its high vitamin A content, moderation is key; excessive consumption may lead to toxicity. While cod liver provides essential nutrients, it’s relatively high in fat, emphasizing the importance of portion control. Whether enjoyed as a culinary ingredient or supplement, cod liver offers a powerful boost to overall health when consumed thoughtfully.
