Choose plnktn. as your omega-3 source and stop (over)fishing

Various international studies have shown that we consume too much omega-6 and relatively little omega-3.

Most people who buy an omega-3 supplement automatically look for fish oil. But did you know that fish are so rich in omega-3 because of their diet? Algae (plankton) are the source of the so-called essential fatty acids EPA and DHA. By simply eating what the fish eat to obtain omega-3, you get these fatty acids in a natural way. Without having to catch one fish for it. In other words, by eating algae supplements, you get enough omega-3 in a sustainable and plant-based manner. 

The fishing industry is emptying our oceans in a quick pace. This is a huge problem. A recent documentary named 'Seaspiracy' reveals how much damage humankind causes to marine species. It is essential to take action. This starts with you. We are motivated to contribute to stop (over)fishing. With plnktn., you get all the good nutrition from the ocean in a sustainable way. If you choose plnktn., you choose for a sustainable, plantbased and optimally absorbable form of omega-3. And in addition to the EPA fatty acid, it is packed with other nutrients that give your body a boost. 

Local and Sustainable

The values of plnktn. are a reflection of this product:

• Natural 
• Sustainable 
• Local 
• Nutritious 
• Plant-based 

First of all, Marine Phytoplankton is a 100% plantbased and natural product. It is grown on Dutch soil. So no unnecessary transport emissions. The algae are cultivated in The Netherlands by a dedicated team of PhD microbiologists. Pure seawater is used for this, which is free of heavy metals. Another reason why this plant-based product is a better option than fish oil. And it is obviously free from unnecessary additives, such as pesticides. We don't have to go into the sea to harvest the algae, but grow them ourselves in natural conditions. So no fishing or bycatch. 

Algae grow thanks to sunlight, and that is exactly what we use to make this super supplement. photosynthesis does the rest. It couldn't be more natural!
