Omega-3

Algae Omega-3

Plant-based EPA and DHA, straight from the source fish use.

Why it earns a place

Fish get their omega-3s from algae, so algal oil skips the middle step. It's the only vegan source that reliably delivers DHA, since converting ALA from flax is inefficient.

Who it's for

Vegans, vegetarians, and anyone who can't tolerate fish oil.

Who should skip it

You already take a quality fish oil and tolerate it well.

Dose

500mg–1g combined EPA + DHA daily.

Timing

With a meal.

Typical price

$25–$50

Common questions

Isn't flaxseed enough?

Flax gives ALA, and your body converts only a small percentage to EPA and almost none to DHA. Algal oil provides them directly.
