How our Omega 3 works
Our Vegan Omega 3 (1000mg algae oil, 300mg DHA, 150mg EPA) is a high strength, highly absorbable and effective formula that provides clinically proven support for your brain, heart and vision health. Sustainably sourced from algae in controlled environments, ensuring no fish or animal life are affected, and no oceanic ecosystems are destroyed, it is a win-win for your health and the planet.
How to take it?
You can take your softgels in the morning, daytime or evening, together or separately, and with or without food.
What is it?
Omega 3 works in direct balance with omega 6 fats. The ideal ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 intake is 2:1, however, this isn't often achieved, with some modern diets having a ratio of only 15:1.

What is Vegan Omega 3
Fish get their omega 3 by eating algae, or because they eat other fish which have eaten algae. Omega 3 from fish can contain toxins, depending on what the fish has eaten, and has a high propensity of going rancid.
Algae is one of the main starting points for omega 3 into the food chain, so we cut out the middle man - or the middle fish - and ethically and sustainably source our Omega 3 directly from algae.
Why is it so good?
Heart Health: Supports the healthy function of your heart circulation and blood pressure.
Brain Health: Daily support for your brain health, memory and concentration.
Joint Health: Improves joint health and mobility.
Skin Health: Supports healthy skin through reducing inflammation and protecting your skin against age related damage.
Vision Health: Essential daily support for your eye health and healthy vision.
Omega 3 in our diet
Good plant sources of Omega 3 include flax seeds & flax seed oil, walnuts & walnut oil, chia seeds, hemp seeds and hemp oil. Broccoli also contains omega 3, however you would need to eat a lot of broccoli if you were going to rely on it as your primary source!
As a result, a vegan omega 3 supplement is often the best choice for those who don't eat fish or follow a vegetarian or plant-based diet.
