It is generally understood that CLO is a supplement for A & D, and that
fish body oil is much more useful as an Omega 3 supplement.

I use and give CLO only occasionally for extra A & D, but we use salmon oil
at 1000mg/10 lbs for therapeutic supplementation, and about 1000mg/30 lbs.
for daily dietary use. I am not overly concerned about Vit A toxicity, but
would never use CLO in such great quantity.
