Ordering Blue Ice Royal... this is good, right?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
So we're TTC (6DPO, so I could even be pregnant now, possibly), and I've finally got around to ordering some CLO. I got Blue Ice Royal, the mixture of FCLO and high-vitamin butter oil. But I read up a few MDC threads and a bt of WAPF info and got myself all kerfuddled.

Is this OK for pregnancy, and for giving my two-year-old? Would krill oil/skate oil/salmon oil be better? I haven't had my vitamin A or D levels tested, but I assume they're not great - we're coming out of winter, I don't get a huge amount of sunlight, and I don't eat organ meats.

It's not too late to cancel the order, if anyone has any compelling reason this will cause me to give birth to a two-headed child. Thanks!

(Also? OUCH, pricey. DH nearly had a conniption when he saw the total - I got two bottles.)

I have the FCLO/BO mix. I got it in pill form because I know there's no way I could make myself gag down the liquid. Anyway, I'm 37 weeks preggo right now and I've ben taking 2 capsules daily most of the time. According to the bottle it adds up to less than the RDA for both A and D, so I feel like it is giving me a little boost while not going overboard on it. Crossing my fingers that the baby is not born with two heads.

That's what I took while pregnant and frankly I wouldn't take anything else. Fermented CLO is the way to go and while there is a danger of too much vitamin A if taken in synthetic form--that isn't the case with a natural form such as this (I suppose if you drank the whole bottle that might be a problem but at that price, you won't do that ).
