Our omega-3 complex delivers a natural, vegan combination of all key omega-3 fatty acids, alongside a broad spectrum of further valuable fatty acids and phytochemicals. It provides the active omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA, the key precursor alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and the beneficial omega-6 fatty acid gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), as a natural blend of premium plant oils from microalgae, flaxseed, chia seeds, moringa, sea buckthorn, borage and coconut MCT oil.
At the core of the complex is a high-dose, vegan blend of the bioactive omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA from algae. To achieve comparable concentrations, conventional omega-3 supplements typically rely on fish oil as their base. However, many fish species carry high levels of heavy metals and environmental toxins.
That's why we use vegan omega-3 from natural algae oil instead. The algae are cultivated in closed fermentation systems that don't disturb the sensitive marine ecosystem. As a result, our omega-3 has no negative impact on fish stocks or natural food sources. Microalgae aren't just an ethical, reliable source of omega-3 fatty acids; they also contain numerous other valuable phytochemicals and show no measurable contamination.
Our omega-3 is derived from the alga Schizochytrium sp., which has the highest plant-based DHA content known. Unlike other vegan omega-3 products, this alga delivers the bioactive omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA directly, rather than only the precursor ALA, as is the case with flaxseed oil, for example. The omega-3 fatty acids are also present in their highly bioavailable, natural triglyceride form. The vast majority of concentrated fish oil products, by contrast, consist of ethyl ester concentrates, which the body absorbs far less effectively. Omega-3 fatty acids in triglyceride form show 50% to 300% better absorption than the ethyl ester form.
For standardisation, small amounts of a high-quality, oleic acid-rich sunflower oil are added. This high oleic acid content, combined with rosemary extract, fat-soluble vitamin C (ascorbyl palmitate) and mixed tocopherols (vitamin E), helps reduce susceptibility to oxidation, extending the shelf life of these sensitive fatty acids. The oil's very low oxidation level (TOTOX value: 2 in the raw material, 11.64 in the final product) confirms the freshness of the algae oil. The corresponding lab test can be viewed under "Lab Tests" below.
The two active omega-3 fatty acids are embedded in a rich matrix of premium plant oils. These provide further omega-3 fatty acids, including the key precursor ALA, as well as the beneficial omega-6 fatty acid GLA and numerous other valuable fatty acids. Our omega-3 complex therefore delivers an exceptionally broad spectrum of fatty acids from natural foods.
For the capsule shells, we use vegan softgels made from tapioca starch (cassava root), produced exclusively for us without hidden additives such as PEG or carrageenan. We package this product in amber glass jars instead of plastic to protect the ingredients from light.
This product has been tested free from selected doping substances within the scope of the Cologne List®. The Cologne List® is a doping prevention initiative which publishes products which have been independently tested for selected doping substances by a world-class laboratory in food supplement analysis. As a partner of the Cologne List®, we ensure greater transparency in a very heterogeneous market and support athletes, teams, clubs and associations in the assessment of these products.
