Hi!

I'm expecting my second child (16 weeks). I used to take
barlean's omega twin oil, but I don't take it anymore
since I know that I'm pregnant. I'm not sure if the oil
(especially the lignan) is 'save' for the pregnancy.
Anyone can give me some advises?

Thanks before!

Beware of the total fat-soluble vitamin content in cod liver
oil.....too much A and D can cause toxicity for fetus. I'd
also be wary of the levels of PCB, dioxin, or mercery in
fish oils.....maybe fine to take if not pregnant, but who
wants to risk it if you are?? Barleans omega-twin doesn't
contain fish (I think is flax and borage oil right?) so
would likely be safter. Lignans are simply the fiber from
the flax seed (or other woody plant cell-walls). Find a
nutritionist into whole foods or a mid-wife schooled in
natural medicine and you can get the best info on nutrition
in pregnancy.

Cheers, Lisa
