In the fight against overfishing Testa supports Sea Shepherd
Almere, 28 October 2021 – We are increasingly aware of the importance of omega-3. But did you know that this development is extremely bad for life in the oceans? Twenty-five per cent of the world’s fish catch goes to the omega-3 industry and there is now overfishing. The demand for omega-3 from krill, a small shrimp species, is also rising sharply. If this food source is also overfished, animals such as penguins, seals and whales will starve. And that is unnecessary! Krill in fact gets its omega-3 from algae. Testa, as a supplier of fish-free omega-3 supplements from algae oil, is therefore launching Vrill Omega-3.
The groundbreaking Vrill Omega-3
Vrill Omega-3 capsules are sustainable and fully plant-based and are rich in the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. The supplement consists of oil from the algae Schizochytrium sp and is enriched with natural phospholipids. These ensure that the omega-3 is more easily absorbed by the body. It also contains the very powerful antioxidant astaxanthin. Testa Vrill Omega-3 fits into a vegan diet and is suitable for young and old, as well as pregnant women. In short: with this vegetable alternative, you support both your body and the life in the oceans.

Omega-3 Test
If after reading the complaints you doubt whether you have enough omega-3, you can easily take an omega-3 test at home. The kit is available in our webshop. After the finger prick, you send the test back to a specialized institute. The test measures the percentage of omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA of the total fatty acids in your blood. The optimal percentage for good health lies between 8 and 11%. Research shows that the average in the Netherlands is 4.5%.
Bringing up the Omega-3 index
If your Omega-3 Index is too low, then for each point lower than 8% we recommend using at least 1.5 grams of omega-3 EPA + DHA on average per day for one month to get your omega-3 back on track. That’s 3 capsules or xx drops. You maintain the right index by making sure you get at least 250 mg EPA + DHA daily. This way you can stay ahead of these symptoms and make sure that your immune system is functioning properly, that you have a better absorption of nutrients and that you are resistant to stress.
