Product details

Omega-3 Plus

The plant-based alternative to krill oil. With omega-3, astaxanthin and phospholipids for optimal absorption.

Plnktn Omega Plus combines pure omega-3 from microalgae with naturally sourced astaxanthin and phospholipids (including phosphatidylcholine). Together, they form a complete, fish-free formula inspired by krill oil — yet entirely plant-based.

The omega-3 is derived from Schizochytrium sp. and provides at least 250 mg DHA and 125 mg EPA per daily dose. Scientific research shows that a daily intake of at least 250 mg of omega-3 contributes to normal heart, brain and vision function (EFSA-approved health claims).

Astaxanthin is often referred to as the “king of carotenoids” and is widely studied for its role in protecting cells against oxidative stress. Omega Plus contains astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis, an algae cultivated using a CO₂-neutral, high-quality production process.


The dark side of krill oil

Krill plays a vital role in the Antarctic ecosystem. Since the 1990s, krill fishing has increased significantly, with much of it ending up in supplements and feed for farmed salmon. As quotas have been relaxed, scientists are raising concerns about the impact on whales, seals and penguins. That’s why we choose omega-3 from algae — a 100% plant-based alternative, produced without putting pressure on Antarctic ecosystems.

A lot of krill for a little oil

Producing krill oil requires large quantities of krill — tiny shrimp harvested from the ocean for use in supplements.

Not only krill is disappearing

Krill are the base of the Antarctic food chain and vital for whales, penguins, and seals — fewer krill can have a major impact on the ecosystem.

Why krill? Omega-3 and Astaxanthin come from algae.

Krill doesn’t make omega-3 or astaxanthin itself — it obtains them from algae. Choosing algae-based omega-3 means going straight to the original source.

I am super happy with this

filled star filled star filled star filled star filled star

Super happy with this! I chose it because it’s vegan — and leaving the fish alone is a win-win. Delivery was on time, customer service is fast and friendly, and I’ve now added the plankton capsules to my subscription. Very excited about those!

It's a quality product from a nutritious source. Better for the body's absorption. I'm very satisfied!

Product works well

filled star filled star filled star filled star filled star

The product works well and I haven’t had any side effects, similar to another algae-based vegan product I used before. I switched to this brand because it’s grown in the Netherlands rather than harvested from nature. It’s also a bit more affordable than my previous brand.

"More people and too few fish"

Seventy percent of the world’s population doesn’t get the omega-3 they need. And if everyone were to rely on fish as their source, there simply wouldn’t be enough fish in the ocean. According to scientists at NTNU — the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.

Collapsible content

Why should I use this product and not Omega-3 and Astaxanthin separately?

Omega Plus is designed for those who want a little more than omega-3 alone.

Our standalone Omega-3 is ideal for daily omega-3 intake. For those specifically looking for a higher intake of astaxanthin, we also offer astaxanthin as a separate product.

Omega Plus brings these elements together: omega-3 combined with a moderate amount of astaxanthin and phospholipids. This carefully balanced formula complements your omega-3 intake with an added layer — that’s why we call it Omega Plus.

What's the difference between Omega-3 and Omega-3 Plus? Is Omega Plus better?

The difference lies in the composition. Omega-3 is our pure, everyday omega-3 formula. Omega Plus also includes phospholipids and a lower dose of astaxanthin.

This makes Omega Plus a good option for those looking to complement their omega-3 intake with a little extra. Which one suits you best depends on what you’re looking for: pure and simple, or omega-3 with added support.

It also contains astaxanthin. I take that too. Can I stop taking it now?

That depends on what you’re looking for. Omega Plus contains a lower dose of astaxanthin, intended as a complement to omega-3. Our standalone astaxanthin product, on the other hand, provides a higher dose.

If you’re using astaxanthin consciously and in a higher dosage, Omega Plus isn’t meant to replace that. Think of Omega Plus as omega-3 with a little extra — not as a substitute for the astaxanthin supplement itself.

What is the daily dosage?

We recommend 2 capsules per day during or just after a meal.

Is the product free from allergens?

Yes, it is free from allergens.

Is omega-3 safe to take during pregnancy/breastfeeding?

It is recommended that you consult a doctor or GP before using the product during pregnancy.

Can I give my child Omega Plus? From what age can children receive this?

This product is recommended for use from the age of 14. If you intend to give it to a child under 14, it's wise to consult your doctor first.
