When I was a child my mother would insist on giving me cod liver oil capsules because she’d heard they were good for kids. I would protest loudly they tasted disgusting. But I did as I was told and now I’m glad. These days we’ve got a much better understanding of why fish oil is so important for health it’s due to a substance called omega-3, which has been dubbed a miracle food and is good for adults as well as kids. So thanks oum!
