440 mg of DHA and 160 mg of EPA PER SERVING
Plant-based Omega 3 from Plantforce responds to our request to create an all-plant supplement in capsule form. Omega 3 are essential fatty acids that:
Only two capsules a day will provide:
Total vegan Omega 3 fatty acids | 650 mg |
EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) | 160 mg |
DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) | 440 mg |
Omega 3 for vegans from Plantforce is:
Plantforce® Omega 3 (vegan EPA and DHA from algae oil) is an environmentally friendly and sustainably sourced algae oil that is a source of Omega 3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. Eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids are essential for the proper functioning of the body. The deficiency of omega-3 fatty acids in the diet is correlated, among others, with with a higher risk of cardiovascular, skeletal and nervous system diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and depression.
Unfortunately, a vegan diet cannot get large amounts of EPA and DHA from food. Products such as: linseed, chia seeds, walnuts and hemp seeds contain the ALA ( alpha-linolenic acid) fraction , which then has to be converted into EPA and DHA fractions, and this conversion is very low (~ 5%) . In order not to lead to deficiencies, they should be supplemented.
Algae instead of fish - as a source of EPA and DHA
The most common source of EPA and DHA is oily sea fish or fish oil (fish oil). The reason why fish contain omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA is because the fish consumes algae that naturally contain these fatty acids.
How is algae oil made?
The algae are grown inside large steel water tanks using fermentation technologies. The omega 3-rich oil is then extracted. It is an environmentally friendly and fully sustainable method. Thanks to this, we get pure oil, without any toxins that fish absorb under natural conditions.
It is recommended to use 2 capsules a day during or after a meal.
After opening, store in the refrigerator, out of the reach of children.
Microalgae oil (from Schizochytrium sp.), Antioxidants (mixture of tocopherols, rosemary extracts, ascorbyl palmitate), capsule of plant origin: modified corn starch, humectant (glycerol), thickener (carrageenan), sodium carbonate.
A dietary supplement cannot be used as a substitute (replacement) for a varied diet. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
