Nordic Naturals Algae DHA, 500mg
Nordic Naturals Algae DHA 500mg is a vegan omega-3 supplied in small vegetarian softgels. Made from microalgae rather than fish, it gives vegans, vegetarians and anyone who avoids fish a plant-based way to get preformed DHA.
Key features
- Omega-3 DHA from sustainably sourced microalgae
- Suitable for vegans
- Small vegetarian softgels that are easy to swallow
- An alternative to fish oil
- Supplies DHA in its preformed state
The body converts plant omega-3 ALA, found in foods such as flaxseed, into DHA only in small amounts. That makes it tricky for people on plant-based diets to get much DHA from food, which is where a microalgae source comes in. Microalgae are the original source of the omega-3s that end up in fish.
Available in a 60 softgels size.
