Product overview
Nordic Naturals Algae Omega is the ideal 100% vegan alternative to fish oil. Made from sustainably sourced microalgae, it offers a plant-based source of the omega-3 essential fatty acids, EPA and DHA without the use of fish. Algae Omega's unique formula contains significant amounts of DHA and EPA. It is a pure and effective source of both to naturally support mood, vision, immunity and overall health.
  • 100% vegan and vegetarian friendly.
  • Derived from microalgae - the original source of omega-3.
  • Contains significant amounts of DHA and EPA.
  • Supports mood, vision, immunity and overall health.
Amazing algae + ethical innovation
This marine-based formula is derived from a sustainably-sourced unicellular marine microalgae and delivers 715 mg of EPA + DHA per serve in small, easy-to-swallow vegetarian softgels. Due to the body's poor ability to convert plant-based omega-3 ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) to healthy amounts of DHA and EPA, it can be difficult for vegans and vegetarians to get enough of these foundational nutrients. Algae Omega is a great alternative to fish oil for vegans, vegetarians, and anyone who prefers not to eat fish.
Why do I need essential fatty acids?
Essential fatty acids (EFA's) are nutrients that are essential for optimal health. They cannot be produced by the body so must be obtained through the diet and/or supplementation. DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) are important omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 EFA's provide support for brain and eye health, the immune, nervous and cardiovascular systems, and balanced mood and stress management. They support joint and tissue health as well as healthy prostaglandin pathways.

Ultra-concentrated, highly absorbable omega 3’s

High-quality, purified fish oil is the best source of the omega-3 essential fatty acids EPA and DHA critical to good health. Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) are considered “essential fats” because they are required for optimal health but cannot be produced by the body.

An increase in omega-3’s promotes the body’s natural inflammatory response and supports heart, brain, circulatory, metabolic, joint and tissue health. Sustainably sourced and using environmentally conscious fishing practices, Nordic Naturals fish oils are in 100% natural triglyceride form for optimal absorption and faster results, and best of all, are great tasting!

As a vegan of three months, it can be difficult for me to get enough important nutrition in my body - such as omega 3, that is usually found in fish oil. I finally found a vegan omega supplement that meets my daily nutrition needs, and also meets my tastebud's approval. I always trust a brand that is transparent about supplying a certificate of analysis for their products.

Being vegetarian makes it challenging to get fish oil into my diet. I love that this product is sustainably sourced as that is so important to me!
