Conventional omega-3 supplements are typically based on fish oil. However, many species of fish are contaminated with heavy metals, microplastics and other toxins, and fish oil is also ethically and ecologically questionable. We have therefore opted for 100% vegan omega-3 derived from natural algae oil. Microalgae are not only an ethical and sustainable source of omega-3 fatty acids but they also contain many other valuable phytochemicalss and - unlike fish - do not contain any detectable levels of environmental toxins.

This EPA-rich omega-3 oil is obtained from Schizochytrium sp. microalgae, which have one of the highest plant-based contents of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). In contrast to other vegan omega-3 products, this algae does not contain the inactive precursor alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which first has to be converted into the active form, but rather the bioactive omega-3 fatty acid DHA.

The microalgae are cultivated in sustainable aquacultures that do not harm the marine ecosystem. Our omega-3 oil therefore has no negative impact on fish populations or the natural food sources of marine animals. The algae oil also has an excellent environmental footprint, as many tonnes of carbon dioxide are absorbed from the atmosphere during the production process.

In order to achieve the particularly high content of EPA and DHA in their ideal 16:9 ratio, the omega-3 fatty acids are gently potentised to this high content using high-pressure fluid technology.

We use globally unique vegan softgel capsules made from tapioca starch (cassava root) as capsule shells, which are produced exclusively for us without hidden additives such as PEG and carrageenan. We use light-protected amber glass instead of plastic for the packaging.

Effects

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids are a special class of polyunsaturated fatty acids which regulate many important body functions, including brain and heart function, acting as essential components of cell membranes and serving as precursors to eicosanoids.

The bioactive omega-3 fatty acids are docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). To date, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has approved the following statements:

DHA and 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.

TOTOX Value

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): maximum 5 mEq/kg
Anisidine value (AV): maximum 20
TOTOX value: maximum 26

A TOTOX value exceeding 26 indicates spoilage in the omega-3 oil, rendering it unfit for consumption. Conversely, a TOTOX value below 20 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.
