Hi gasp. Some medical websites suggest that Cod Liver Oil might help reduce blood pressure. However, if you are already on tablets to reduce this, then adding the supplement may do more harm than good. I've found the best person to ask is my local pharmacist - they will be able to tell you if there's any interaction with your regular drugs, and if not, what dose might be helpful.

Cod Liver Oil contains omega 3 and also vits A & D. The Omega 3 tablets on their own may be either plant based or fish based, but don't have any other vitamins.

To benefit, the oil needs to be raw, cold, fermented
