DHA + EPA Algae Oil – Vegan Omega-3 Capsules (60 caps)
Vegan | Gluten-Free | Lactose-Free | Soy-Free | Sugar-Free
Best before: 19.04.2026
Product Description
DHA + EPA Algae Oil is a premium plant-based source of essential omega-3 fatty acids derived from Schizochytrium sp. micro-algae. This sustainable, vegan-friendly alternative to fish oil provides a highly bioavailable form of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) in an optimal 2:1 ratio – approx. 167 mg DHA and 83 mg EPA per capsule.
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential building blocks for all cells in the human body, yet they cannot be produced in sufficient quantities internally. DHA and EPA play a key role in brain health, vision, heart function, and overall cognitive performance.
