With an optimal 2:1 ratio (DHA:EPA) and a high dose of 200 mg DHA and 100 mg EPA per capsule, you get exactly what your body needs, in just one capsule a day.
The power of algae: straight from the source
EPA and DHA are naturally produced by microalgae, not fish. By choosing algal oil, you get these fatty acids directly from their original source. Plant-based, sustainable and free from contaminants such as heavy metals.

Pure, more easily absorbed and 100% vegan
Our algal oil contains the natural triglyceride form, which research suggests is more easily absorbed than ethyl ester forms (source, source). Instead of softgels, we use laser-sealed vegan capsules, without modified starch or fillers.
This keeps the algal oil pure, stable and entirely plant-based. The formula also includes high oleic sunflower oil, which is different from the sunflower oil you may be used to. Read more about this oil here ›

Our mission is to help people choose their health products with the right information
Omega 3 fatty acids are important building blocks in the body. They are found in cell membranes, among other places, and form part of our daily diet. DHA specifically contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and normal brain function. Together, EPA and DHA support normal heart function with a daily intake of 250 mg.
An omega 3 deficiency can manifest itself in various ways. Commonly reported symptoms of omega 3 deficiency include dry skin, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, mood swings and dry eyes. However, these symptoms are not exclusive to a deficiency. If you recognise these symptoms, it may be worth reviewing your diet. If in doubt, always consult a qualified professional.
Omega 3 is needed to provide the body with essential fatty acids. EPA and DHA in particular perform functions in the body that other fatty acids cannot readily take over. This makes it important to get omega 3 every day through food or supplements.
There are approved recommendations for daily use: an intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA per day is sufficient for the authorised health claims. Many people therefore choose an omega 3 supplement or omega 3 capsule to supplement their diet. Always choose a pure product from a reliable source, preferably a plant-based option such as omega 3 algal oil.
Side effects of omega 3 are rare with normal use. At very high doses, mild symptoms such as an unpleasant aftertaste, mild stomach discomfort or loose stools may occur. At extremely high doses, there is a theoretical risk of prolonged blood clotting time, but this only applies to large amounts (>3 grams per day) and to people who already take anticoagulant medication. If in doubt, always consult a doctor.
No maximum duration has been established for taking omega 3 supplements, provided they are used at the recommended dosage. Long-term use of a high-quality source, such as plant-based omega 3 from algae, is considered safe. Choose products without unnecessary additives, and check the amount of EPA and DHA per dose.
Foods containing omega 3 include plant and marine sources. ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) is found in flaxseed, chia seeds, walnuts and rapeseed oil. EPA and DHA are found mainly in oily fish and algae oil. For those following a plant-based diet, algae oil is a direct and sustainable source of these fatty acids.
A safe and effective daily amount is 250 mg of EPA and DHA combined. This is also the level at which the European food safety authority has approved the health claims. Depending on your lifestyle and diet, you may choose to take an omega 3 supplement. Check the amount per capsule or drop, and whether it contains EPA, DHA or ALA.
It’s best to take omega 3 capsules or liquid omega 3 oil during or straight after a meal. The fatty acids are absorbed better when taken with fat from food. Choose a time that works for you each day, as this makes it easier to keep up the habit.
The best omega 3 is pure, easily absorbed and sustainably produced. For those following a plant-based lifestyle, algae-derived omega 3 is the best choice. It provides EPA and DHA directly, without involving fish. Look at factors such as origin, purity, EPA/DHA content and whether the product is free from unnecessary additives. This helps you choose a supplement that suits your needs and values.
