What kinds of fat have you been eating?

Comment author: Jayson_Virissimo 31 December 2013 02:36:32AM *  3 points [-]

In addition to the fat in my food (which tends to be fairly fatty like eggs, salmon, lamb, etc...), I usually add large amounts of butter, coconut oil, MCT oil, or olive oil. Also, I take way over the recommended dosage in cod liver oil supplements.

Also, I take way over the recommended dosage in cod liver oil supplements.

A word of warning here- long term use of large quantities cod liver oil can result in vitamin A toxicity.

Thanks. I'll look into that.
