Premium Bioactive Ingredients
How are we different?
Conventional omega-3 supplements typically use 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. 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. The algae are cultivated in closed fermentation systems that don't disturb the sensitive marine ecosystem. As a result, our omega-3 oil has no negative impact on fish stocks or the natural food sources of marine life.
Our omega-3 oil is derived from the microalga Schizochytrium sp., which has one of the highest plant-based DHA levels known. Schizochytrium sp. also naturally contains EPA. Unlike other vegan omega-3 products, this algae doesn't provide the inactive precursor alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), found in flaxseed oil and requiring conversion into its active form; instead, it delivers the bioactive omega-3 fatty acid DHA directly.
Owing to our optimised manufacturing and bottling process under oxygen exclusion, these sensitive omega-3 fatty acids are protected as effectively as possible.
We package this product in amber glass jars instead of plastic to protect the ingredients from light.

Effects
Omega-3 fatty acids are a special category of polyunsaturated fatty acids. They form an integral part of bodily cell membranes and are a precursor of important tissue hormones. Eicosanoid tissue hormones formed from omega-3 fatty acids influence several important bodily functions including brain and heart functioning.
The biologically active omega-3 fatty acids are docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). The EFSA has so far approved the following statements:
DHA & EPA
- Contribute to the maintenance of normal cardiac function
DHA
- Contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function
- Contributes to the maintenance of normal vision
Numerous other effects are currently under intensive research.
Dosage
Omega-3 oils are only as good as they are fresh: omega-3 fatty acids are naturally reactive and prone to oxidation processes, leading to rancidity. Oxidised omega-3 fatty acids produce primary fatty acid peroxides, which further degrade into secondary oxidation products, such as aldehydes (e.g., malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxyhexenal). Assessing oxidative by-products is therefore vital to guarantee the quality of omega-3 supplements.
To gauge omega-3 oil oxidation, three key values are employed: the peroxide value (PV), p-anisidine value and the TOTOX value, the latter of which is calculated from anisidine and peroxide values (TOTOX value = p-anisidine value + (2 * PV)).
The TOTOX value (TOTal OXidation) is an internationally recognised indicator which assesses overall oxidation levels in fats and oils, serving as an important barometer of their freshness. The anisidine value (AV) measures aldehyde formation during fat oxidation, revealing whether the oil was processed and stored correctly. The peroxide value (PV) quantifies the state of oxidation. Higher TOTOX values indicate greater rancidity.
We continuously monitor our omega-3 products for anisidine and peroxide values, not only at the raw material stage but also after the oil has been filled into our capsules and bottles at the final product stage. During production, we take the greatest possible care to ensure that all contact with oxygen is minimised in order to prevent oxidation processes. We prioritise the freshness of our raw materials and proper end-product storage, minimising extended storage times.
Official bodies (IFOS, IKOS, GOED, GMBI) stipulate that the following limits must not be exceeded:
Peroxide value (PV): max. 5 mEq/kg
Anisidine value (AV): max. 20
TOTOX value: max. 26
The composition of a product or additional ingredients (i.e., lemon oil) can make it difficult to evaluate the TOTOX value in the laboratory. In such cases, we measure and specify the peroxide value.
A TOTOX value exceeding 26 indicates spoilage in the omega-3 oil, rendering it unfit for consumption. Conversely, a TOTOX value below 20 (or a peroxide value below 5) signifies fresh, high-quality oil.
A deterioration in the taste or smell of the algae oil within this timeframe suggests premature oxidation. Possible culprits include contact between the dropper and the mouth/tongue or improper storage: store your omega-3 product away from light in the refrigerator's lower section to significantly slow down oxidation processes in the algae oil, both before and after opening the package.
Our products have values well below the recommended limits. Please refer to our lab test results below.
Deficiencies
Directions
Take 32 drops (1.5 droppers full) daily with a meal.
Daily Requirements
The EFSA recommends a minimum daily intake of 250mg DHA and/or EPA omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and considers a daily intake of up to 5g to be within safe limits.
