Nova Vitae Vegan omega 3 500mgNova Vitae Vegan omega 3 500 mg
Vegetarians and vegans often have a lower dietary intake of omega-3 fatty acids in the form of EPA and DHA.
After all, fish is the richest source of the important unsaturated fatty acids EPA and DHA.
In principle, the body can produce EPA and DHA itself from alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which is also found in vegetable oils (such as flaxseed oil).
However, in practice, this conversion is very difficult, and a sufficiently high intake of ready-made EPA and/or DHA from food remains important.
Vegan Omega 3 500 mg provides 150 mg DHA from the microalgae Schizochytrium in a vegetarian capsule.
The product is especially suitable for vegetarians and vegans, and for people who do not wish to use fish oil supplements for other reasons.
