Excellent product
By Tiberius
I buy this product as a regular supplement to my daily routine nowadays. It is the best source for vitamin D and the butter combination really adds some magic to how the body absorbs it. I had tried just the plain cod liver oil but after reading about how the Viking ships used cod liver oil and how their health and strength was, it says something about the concept of fermented cod liver oil and butter. Butter is an infection fighter also which is something I didn't know before but read about. So I don't use margarine but real butter. This product has changed my health and my viewpoint on how I look at some things. Highly recommended. Beats Carlson cod liver oil easily as there is just no comparison. I started with Carlson and then after using this, no comparison, this stuff wins hands down.

Got rid of keratosis pilaris on upper arms
By Gen of North Coast Gardening
I've had those tiny little bumps on the skin of my upper arms for as long as I can remember, and relied on lots of exfoliating and lotion to have smooth skin all this time.
But after reading about this product on The Healthy Home Economist's site (and how it fights tooth decay and more), and then again on Hunt Gather Love, where she talked about it as a cure for those little upper-arm bumps that 60% of us have, I decided it was time to give it a try, despite my dislike of fish oil capsules and their horrible, horrible flavor.
Well, it tastes every bit as unpleasant as a capsule can, though I don't notice many fishy burps as others have stated they experienced with cheaper brands. But this, combined with fresh carrot juice for a week (for added vitamin A), totally got rid of those upper-arm bumps for the first time in years! It made me realize that I probably have a vitamin deficiency after years of eating anti-nutrients in the form of grains and legumes.
My partner was shocked to see the actual results from taking the pills, and began taking them too. Even though he's less steady than I am, he noticed that his skin felt smoother within a few days, too.
Because it's expensive, we alternate this stuff with other fish oil pills that are cheaper, so we at least get our healthy omega oils each day. But this stuff is definitely worth incorporating into your diet. In the past two months, I've noticed my hair is growing out glossier, and my nails are significantly stronger - I can't bend them the way I used to. I think Dr Price must have been on to something with the combo of fish and high-vitamin butter oil, as I've seen surprisingly good results in such a short period of time.

So far so good
By John Pocket
First off, the item was shipped and received on time. The package arrived just as I expected.
So I bought this based on advice from a health book. I also did a fair amount of research on the Weston A. Price foundation website, which discusses the health benefits of these kinds of oils/fats at length.
I mainly bought this because I'm told it will boost natural testosterone levels and so far, I'm pretty sure this claim is correct. Since I've started taking this I've noticed more/stronger "morning wood", which is a pretty good indicator of increased testosterone levels.
I've also noticed that my allergies are not as bad. I recently moved to Austin, TX which is notorious for being a bad place for allergies. Even taking Zyrtec I still had some allergy symptoms, but after taking this oil blend, I've noticed my allergy symptoms are almost non-existent.
Don't get me wrong, a lot of this could be placebo effect or confirmation bias, so there's always that to consider.
The cons of this product is the price. It's expensive, in my opinion, and there are cheaper alternatives, such as buying Carlson's cod liver oil, and high vitamin butter oil from a cheaper supplier. A little google research could yield you a better deal.
