Produktinformationen
The Omega 3 Algae Oil Capsules from Unimedica contain natural omega-3 fatty acids from the microalga Schizochytrium. This alga has the highest content of plant-based EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and is therefore an excellent alternative source of omega-3 fatty acids for vegetarian and vegan diets. A positive side effect of the plant-based omega-3 source is the conservation of overfished seas and the protection of fish stocks.
Why are omega-3 fatty acids important for us?
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids that the body cannot produce itself. We therefore have to obtain them from our diet, yet omega-3 is often lacking in our highly processed foods. For this reason, supplementation with Omega 3 Algae Oil Capsules from Unimedica can be particularly useful for vegans.
What are unsaturated fatty acids good for?
Replacing saturated fatty acids with monounsaturated and/or polyunsaturated fatty acids in the diet contributes to the maintenance of a normal blood cholesterol level.*
Specifically, eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid (EPA²/DHA¹) support the function of the heart and blood pressure.
¹ The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg DHA.
² The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg EPA.
DHA¹ also contributes to normal vision and brain function.
¹ The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg DHA.
An additional natural source of omega-3 fatty acids alongside fish and vegetable oil
The Omega 3 Algae Oil Capsules from Unimedica contain high-quality algae oil with a high proportion of essential fatty acids in triglyceride form (TG). This means they are omega fatty acids in their natural form, "packaged" into vegan softgel capsules using DSM's patented life's OMEGA process. Unlike synthetically esterified forms, where the omega-3 fatty acids are chemically bound to an alcohol (e.g. ethanol), the original triglyceride structure is present here.
The softgel capsules made from plant-based gelatin are produced from tapioca starch and are small and easy to swallow.
Uncompromisingly transparent, pure and environmentally friendly manufacturing of life's OMEGA
The high-quality contents of the Omega 3 Algae Oil Capsules from Unimedica are fermented from natural algae. For this purpose, an algal cell culture is grown in a controlled, protected process. These algae are then, unlike other algae products, cultivated in water under indoor conditions. This means they are not exposed to environmental influences and a naturally pure, potent and effective ingredient for our healthy nutrition is produced.
This unique manufacturing process also leaves a minimal ecological footprint. No specially created ponds are required. The algae are cultivated and fermented in controlled indoor environments.
Because the microalga Schizochytrium contains both EPA and DHA, there are no compromises in the production of the final product life's OMEGA. The manufacturer's production process is traceable from start to finish.
The Omega 3 Algae Oil Capsules from Unimedica are gluten-free and lactose-free.
Free from the following additives
In accordance with legal requirements, Omega 3 Algae Oil Capsules from Unimedica are free from preservatives and are also without additives such as colourings, stabilisers, anti-caking agents such as magnesium stearate, non-GMO, and are lactose-free, gluten-free and vegan.
