Sally Fallon, Mary Enig and the Weston A Price Foundation have been saying it for years. Good old fashioned Cod Liver Oil is one of the most important whole food supplements. Mid 20th century, Dr Price found that the traditional diet of “primitive” groups of humans, no matter where in the world they lived, included 10 times more Vitamin A than “westerners”. He also found that they suffered none of the debilitating disease we suffer, the incidence of which has escalated since his findings were quashed by the emerging agribusiness feudalism of North America. Finally, we begin to hear his wisdom from other scientists mouths..
“Dosing children from a young age with cod-liver oil may have prevented previous generations from contracting asthma, according to a study released today.”

Dr Lady Cilento once published either a book or a paper on the use of Cod_Liver oil in the fight against asthma and its value in stopping infections by its dispersion through the nasal membranes. I wonder if you have ever seen that article or book and if so could you poit me to a reference of where it may be found. It may have mentioned HALIVOL . Many Thanks
