CarlsonKid's Cod Liver Oil, 550 mg Omega-3s, Vitamins A & D3, Wild Norwegian, Lemon, 250 mL

Tastes good, supposed to be good for you.

I totally agree with reviewer J. Lynd about the content. I am actually buying the kids version for myself. I used the adult one throughout my pregnancy and a few months afterwards. Doctors and nurses were amazed at how well my pregnancy was going (minimum nausea, all my tests were coming back perfect, no swelling, no complications, baby's growth impeccable) and they (including my obgyn and midwives) kept asking what I was doing to help my pregnancy. I told them cod liver oil. And of course, they didn't believe me because all of their parents made them take it when they were young, so now they despise even the thought of it. But, then I told them I don't just buy any crap that's sold at the local drug store, but I did research first and will only buy Carlson's liquid form after finding out that high quality cod liver oil helps with the baby's nervous system and brain development. (Of course, my obgyn didn't know to tell me this...) This was very important to me because I'm in my 30's and the medical industry is always warning about the risks of children being born with defects increases linearly as the mother increases in age (and my age is approaching the danger zone!)So, several months later when my 1st born was approaching 8 months old and I was running low, I went to the local health store to get my fix of cod liver oil. But the store was out of the adult version. So I waited, went back several days later and they were still out! Then, I went to Whole Foods and they were out of the smaller bottle but had the larger bottle for $60. No bueno - sorry but I'm too much of a miser to pay that much for cod liver oil. So, I ended up buying the kids version after comparing the labels. I have both: an empty bottle of the adult version in the recycle bin and the kids bottle is in the fridge right now. Both are the same size and both have the EXACT same content of DHA, EPA, Vitamin E, Vitamin A. But, I like that the kids version lists the suitable amount a little one should have. Most supplements totally disregard that children are likely deficient in the same minerals and vitamins as adults, so they only recommend the daily dosage for an adult. But we have no clue how much to give to a child! My son is currently only 8 months old, so he can't take it right now. But, I'm glad to know we both are getting the same beneficial nutrition; it will just be in different dosages (once he's old enough to take it - for now, he'll just have to get it from my breastmilk...TMI?).

I am so pleasantly surprised after trying this product! I was really grossed-out at the idea when buying this, but I decided to make my kids take it anyway :-) When I got the bottle, I opened it not knowing what I would smell. In the past whenever I have taken "omega 3" and fish oil caplets, I have been so sick from the recurring fish after-taste that I really couldn't commit to taking them. I was worried it would simply be a lemony flavor trying to cover up that awful fishy taste. After reading the reviews, I went on faith of the other reviewers and ordered this product. The smell is light and lemony. I admit I made my 9 year old daughter take it first - she had no preconceived notions about it having a fishy taste, or even what it was for that matter - I just told her it was a healthy vitamin lemon oil. Went down no problem, no yuck face, I was amazed! I really kept watching her to see if she would say something about a fish taste. Nothing! What they don't know won't hurt them! So this morning, I laid out a spoon at each of their spots at the table, along with their gummy vitamins. Matter of factly said "we are taking this every morning with our vitamins, from now on" My 5 year old looked a bit suspicious, but I tipped it in his mouth with a smile and handed him the gummies. Not a single complaint. OMGoodness. How easy. After they left for school, I tried it myself b/c I was really more worried about my own preconceived "mental aversions" and I have to honestly say, I can do this. It is much easier that swallowing the vitamins and supplements I take every day. Mind over matter! I am so happy to have this in out diets, living in upstate NY, we are outdoors year round, but in the winter we are covered head to foot in clothing. Will happily reorder!Update:After taking this oil for a couple weeks we are doing great! I bought a bag of those hard sour-lemon candies, put them in a zip-lock bag and used my meat tenderizer to break into small pcs. Now, after taking the oil, my kids love getting a little lemon chip to suck on and get the oily feeling replaced with a sour lemon candy taste.
