(A teaspoon of liquid fish oil is about 4.75 grams, or about enough for a 50-pound dog.) You also want to give Vitamin E (preferably natural, or d-alpha, not dl-alpha; even better is d-alpha with mixed tocopherols) to protect the PUFAs in oil supplements.

I totally blew it on my last supplement order because (for some odd reason) I ordered a bunch of cod liver oil and only a couple of salmon oils. I would just return them but in this heat i worry about them spoiling.................can I freeze them? Are they good for anything? Senior moment I bet!

Joyce Salazar Webboard User Reg: 02-28-2008 Posts: 2075 Loc: Dallas, Texas Offline	If I remember correctly, I think the issue with cod liver oil was with a potential danger in giving too much Vit. A and D which are both fat soluble. http://www.ext.colostate.edu/pubs/foodnut/09315.html If you could return them, I would and get some kind salmon fish body oil instead. JMO. Joyce Salazar
