FEARS about the safety of cod liver oil supplements were raised last week when batches of the tablets were withdrawn from shops after it was found they had been contaminated with cancercausing chemicals.
The move shocked regular users of a product historically used as a remedy for aching joints and rickets in malnourished children, and revealed as a rich source of essential fatty acids in the 1950s.
Now referred to as Omega-3s, these acids are converted into two important Omega-3 fats: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and ...
