1,700 mg of omega-3 in a daily dose
Our Omega-3 Vegan Capsules (80 cps) contain a plant-based algal oil. The oil is extracted from the marine microalgae Schizochytrium sp., which is grown in artificial seawater. This microalgae has a high content of DHA and EPA.
With just a daily dose of 4 capsules, you get 1700 mg of marine omega-3 fatty acids. So the vegan omega-3 capsules are an ideal marine omega-3 provider for anyone who wants to eat animal-free.
NORSAN algae oil
Microalgae, with its unique photosynthesis, forms the basis of our existence. It contains vital nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids, which enter our diet indirectly through fish and seafood. Algae or seaweed oil is a good alternative to fish consumption. It allows us to go directly to the source.
NORSAN Omega-3 Vegan is a 100% vegetable algae oil. The oil is extracted from the marine microalgae Schizochytrium sp. It is a microscopic alga that feeds exclusively on organic and plant matter, such as dead leaves. The microalgae Schizochytrium sp. is particularly rich in the marine omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA. Therefore, it is perfectly suited for the production of a vegan omega-3 oil. Thanks to its high omega-3 content, our vegetable algea oil naturally contains a high dose of omega-3. Thus, no further chemical treatment is needed to obtain a higher concentration.
The production process is sustainable and environmentally friendly. The microalgae we use to produce Omega-3 Vegan do not come from the sea. They are grown in large ponds with artificial seawater. This saves resources and preserves the food base of the fish. In this way, we do not disturb the natural ecosystem of the sea and fish and krill stocks are spared.

Why is flaxseed oil alone not enough?
EPA and DHA are present in marine sources such as fish, algae and krill. Most omega-3 vegetable oils, such as flaxseed oil and chia oil, contain only the vegetable omega-3 fatty acid ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) and not EPA and DHA.
For example, of all vegetable oils, flaxseed oil contains particularly high amounts of ALA. Nuts and chia seeds also contain ALA. It is important to note that ALA can only be converted to the important marine omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA to a limited extent. The conversion factor is only 0.5-10% and is highly dependent on weight, metabolism and other factors. Scientific studies broadly conclude that intake of ALA alone cannot regulate EPA and DHA deficiency.
COMPOSITION AND NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION
Ingredients
Algal oil rich in DHA and EPA from the microalgae Schizochytrium sp. (72.6%) (seaweed oil); modified tapioca starch, humectant: glycerin, sunflower oil (1.9%), flavoring (rosemary extract), antioxidants (extracts high in tocopherols, ascorbyl palmitate).
Storage
Unopened products should be stored away from direct sunlight and in a cool, dry place. At temperatures below 4°C, crystals may form. These crystals dissolve after a few minutes at room temperature. It is recommended to shake the bottle briefly before use. Keep out of the reach of small children. After opening, the bottle should be kept in the refrigerator and consumed within 30 days. Dietary supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Intake
The recommended daily dose is 4 capsules. These capsules should be taken during or after meals with sufficient liquid. In this way, the body can optimally absorb the fatty acids.
One box contains 80 capsules. Under normal use, one box is sufficient for a period of 20 days.
Do not exceed the recommended daily allowance unless otherwise directed by your physician, therapist or pharmacist.
No unpleasant reflux after ingestion
The quality of raw materials is essential to obtain quality products. The exceptional quality and freshness of our seaweed oil is the reason why Omega-3 Vegan Capsules do not cause unpleasant reflux after ingestion. You can check the quality of the product yourself by simply opening a capsule to smell and taste the oil. A high quality fresh fish oil has a neutral odor and taste, so it can even be consumed pure.
