I am super happy with this

filled star filled star filled star filled star filled star

I'm super happy with this; I specifically chose it because it's vegan. And we leave the fish alone, so that's a win-win! 😃 Also, it was delivered on time, and customer service is quick and friendly. I've expanded my subscription to include plankton capsules, and I have high expectations for them! Hahaha!

It is a quality product

filled star filled star filled star filled star filled star

It's a quality product from a food-grade 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, no side effects, but I didn't experience any with a similar product from another company. That one was also algae-based, so vegan. I switched to this brand because I like that it's Dutch-grown without having to be harvested from nature. It's even slightly more affordable than my previous brand.

I've been using it for a few weeks because I don't want to eat fish, but I haven't noticed any noticeable effects yet. I'm confident, though, so I'll keep using it. Fast delivery and well packaged.

So nice

It's so nice that I now know that I am getting enough omega-3 fatty acids, among other things, and that I can therefore remain a vegetarian with peace of mind.

"Meer mensen en te weinig vis"

70 procent van de wereldbevolking krijgt niet de omega-3 binnen die ze nodig hebben. En als iedereen ter wereld het uit vis zou willen halen, is er simpelweg niet genoeg vis in de oceaan. Aldus wetenschappers van de NTNU - Norwegian University of Science and Technology.

Omega-3, goed voor je
hart, ogen en hersenen.

De Gezondheidsraad adviseert dagelijks 200 mg omega-3, maar uit RIVM-onderzoek blijkt dat slechts 11,4% van de Nederlanders dat haalt.

Goed voor je hart

De donkere kant van omega-3 uit vis

Jaarlijks wordt 17 miljard kilo vis gevangen voor Omega-3, vooral voor visoliecapsules. Wist je dat 1 capsule visolie maar liefst 30 ansjovissen kan bevatten? Dat legt enorme druk op onze oceanen, terwijl vis slechts een tussenstation is. Algen zijn de originele bron van Omega-3: 100% plantaardig en visvrij.

30 ansjovisjes voor één capsule

Voor één potje omega-3 gaan zo'n 30 ansjovisjes verloren — een directe bijdrage aan overbevissing.

Verhit, geperst, ontgeurd

Ansjovis wordt vermalen en verhit, wat resulteert in een olie met sterke geur en verlies van zuiverheid.

Niet alleen ansjovis sterft

Naast ansjovis sterven ook plankton, jonge vissen en andere zeeorganismen door industriële vangst.

Waarom vissen? Omega-3 komt uit algen

Vissen maken geen omega-3 — ze krijgen het uit algen, dus jij kunt net zo goed direct naar de bron, gekweekt op het vaste land.

Why omega-3 fatty acids?

Omega-3 fats are polyunsaturated fatty acids. Scientific research shows that at least 250mg omega-3 is good for your heart, brain and eyes (health claims approved by the EFSA).

Why algae oil instead of fish oil?

Algal oil is a plant-based alternative to fish oil. Fish get their omega-3 from algae. By using algal oil, you get omega-3 straight from the source, without the need for fish. Good for you and better for the oceans!

How much omega-3 do I need per day?

The Health Council advises adults to consume 200 mg of Omega-3 from fish daily.

Do you eat little to no oily fish? One capsule of our algae oil contains 250 mg DHA and 125 mg EPA, making it a good (and responsible) substitute!

When is the best time to take omega-3?

We recommend 1 capsule per day during or just after a meal.

Is the omega-3 free from allergens?

Yes, it is free from allergens.

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

Yes, it is safe to take during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

What is the Totox value of the algae oil?

The Totox value of our algae oil has always been below 5 to date. This is very low and means that the oil is fresh and therefore not oxidized.
