Plant-Based Omega-3 Fatty Acids in Liquid Form
The vegan Omega-3 algae oil drops from Unimedica contain three natural omega-3 fatty acids derived from the microalga Schizochytrium. This alga has the highest content of plant-based EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). It is also one of the original sources of DPA (docosapentaenoic acid). This makes our algae oil an excellent plant-based source of omega-3 fatty acids, supporting those who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet in obtaining these essential nutrients.
The liquid form is ideal for individuals who have difficulty swallowing capsules. In addition, the algae oil has a pleasant, natural citrus flavor. The drops can also be mixed into drinks. Another positive aspect of this plant-based omega-3 source is that it helps protect overfished oceans and preserve fish stocks.
What Essential Fatty Acids Are in the Algae Oil?
Unimedica’s omega-3 algae oil drops contain high-quality algae oil. The essential fatty acids are in their natural triglyceride form (TG), which enables optimal absorption by the body. Each daily dose (60 drops) contains 1,818 mg of algae oil, including 545 mg of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), 272 mg of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), and 40 mg of DPA (docosapentaenoic acid).
What Are the Benefits of These Three Omega-3 Fatty Acids?
Omega-3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids. Essential fatty acids play a crucial role in many bodily functions. For example, they are active in the retina and receptor cells of the eyes, contributing to normal vision. DHA is a key component of nerve cells and cell membranes and supports normal brain function and vision. EPA and DPA contribute to normal heart function.
DPA is a precursor to DHA and EPA. Moreover, DPA remains active in the body longer than DHA and EPA, giving it a kind of reserve function. This helps the body maintain a balance of essential fatty acids over time.
Which Foods Contain Omega-3 Fatty Acids?
Polyunsaturated fatty acids like omega-3s can be found in fatty sea fish, fish oil, krill oil, algae oil, certain algae, avocado, walnuts, plant oils, flaxseed, and eggs. EPA and DHA are especially present in fatty fish, eggs, and algae.
Why Take Omega-3 Algae Oil Drops?
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids that the body cannot produce on its own. Therefore, they must be obtained through food. However, many highly processed foods lack sufficient omega-3s. Additionally, EPA and DHA are found primarily in animal products. For this reason, supplementing with omega-3 algae oil drops from Unimedica can be especially beneficial for vegans.
Range of Effects*
EPA (Eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid) together contribute to:
