Vitakruid Vegan omega 3 1000 triglycerides 300 DHA 100 EPA 90 Softgels

Vitakruid Vegan omega 3 1000 triglycerides 300 DHA 100 EPA
No less than 500 mg omega 3 per capsule
There's no debate in science about the importance of omega-3s for health. The best-known omega-3 fatty acids are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

Min. 100 mg EPA and 300 mg DHA
Vegan Omega-3 capsules are a natural product, meaning that DHA and EPA levels may vary. However, we do guarantee a total of 500 mg of omega-3, and a minimum of 100 mg of EPA and 300 mg of DHA per capsule.

Natural and best absorbable triglyceride form
When developing omega-3 supplements, the active ingredients EPA and DHA are separated from the other fatty acids. There are two ways to do this:

1. During the process of extracting these forms, ethyl esters are formed. These are less easily absorbed by the body. To properly absorb this omega-3, the body relies on glycerol. However, if this nutrient is not present in sufficient quantities in your body, you will not absorb omega-3 efficiently.

2. A more sophisticated process ensures that the substances are returned to their original molecular structure. Triglycerides are the omega-3 that results from this process. It is the most absorbable form, independent of excipients for absorption into the body. This is why our Vegan Omega-3 contains only triglycerides.

One ton of Life's™ OMEGA algae oil saves 60 tons (!) of wild-caught fish
The production of most fish oils requires large quantities of fish, which is depleting the oceans. Therefore, the demand for a sustainable and traceable source of omega-3 is high. The renowned algae producer DSM® has taken on this ambitious challenge and is now producing omega-3 fatty acids from microalgae. This contributes to the global challenge of preserving the natural biodiversity of our oceans.

Production process has minimal CO2 emissions
Producing life's™ OMEGA consists of 4 steps:

1. The process starts with sugar and seaweed. The sugar comes from renewable beer, wheat, and corn. The algae strain is called Schizochytrium sp. DSM® cultivates this at its factory in Nebraska, USA.
2. The algae cells multiply during the fermentation process, converting the sugar into omega-3 fatty acids. These accumulate in oil vesicles.
3. The cell wall of the vesicles is then destroyed by the downstream process. This separates the oil from the water, resulting in a highly concentrated algae oil and a liquid byproduct.
4. DSM® uses the by-product as a protein source or can be converted into biogas for electricity production.

Naturally high EPA concentration for algae oil
What makes this algae oil special is its naturally high EPA concentration. The algae strain (Schizochytrium) that DSM® uses in the process has the advantage of producing both EPA and DHA.

Schizochytrium is a natural algae strain from the North Pacific Ocean and is not genetically modified. The final product is therefore an exceptionally pure algae oil with a concentration of over 50% omega-3 fatty acids.

High dose of vegan vitamin E protects against oxidation
Omega-3 fatty acids are susceptible to oxidation. When the oil oxidizes, the fatty acids become rancid and lose some of their effectiveness. That's why we've added a generous 2.1 mg of the antioxidant vitamin E, which effectively protects the omega-3 from oxidation.

Exceptionally low TOTOX oxidation value of <8
Another unique feature of our Vegan Omega-3 capsules is the exceptionally low TOTOX oxidation value (<8). The TOTOX value is an indicator of the purity and absence of contaminants in the oil. The lower the value, the cleaner the omega-3. Legally, the TOTOX must be below 26. With a value below 8, our Vegan algae oil performs exceptionally well!

No fishy burps
Thanks to the extremely low TOTOX and the addition of vitamin E, you won't experience any fishy burping when using this algae oil. The burping of fatty acids is related to the degree to which the oil is oxidized.

Softgels prevent algae taste
Our vegan algae oil is available in capsule form. The capsule ensures that you don't have to taste the specific flavor of the algae oil, which is generally considered unpleasant.

We offer Vegan Omega-3 Algae Oil for those who don't like or have difficulty swallowing capsules. This liquid form also allows you to adjust the dosage to your preference.
