Reply To: Cod Liver Oil

Cod Liver Oil is definitely fine to take during pregnancy, but I would only recommend on an individualized basis. Liver consumption in moderation during pregnancy is great as well. You would have to eat A LOT of liver to overdo the vitamin A there. You can overdo vitamin A supplementation when supplementing with the active form, retinol, but it’s still okay (and recommended for some) to supplement with it.
