The health benefits<\/strong><\/h2>\n

of plant-based omega-3<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\n

Plant-based omega-3 fatty acids are good for your heart, eyes, and brain. While fatty fish only contains 1% omega-3, algae consists of 20% omega-3. Therefore, Testa Omega-3 easily meets the requirements to back up all health claims.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\t\r\n\n\n\t\t

Omega-3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids and are good for your heart, eyes, and brain. Testa Omega-3 DHA & EPA capsules guarantee more than 500 mg of omega-3, significantly more than standard algae, fish, or krill oil supplements.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\n\n\t\t

Suitable for
\nvegetarians and vegans<\/h3>\n

Most sources of omega-3 DHA and EPA are not plant-based and therefore not suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Because ALA from plant sources is converted into both DHA and EPA in minimal amounts, it is especially important for vegetarians and vegans to take DHA and EPA. Plant-based omega-3<\/span> from algae oil is one of the few naturally animal-free sources of omega-3 that contains these essential DHA and EPA fatty acids.<\/p>\n

No contaminants

Unfortunately, nowadays fish often contains more than just omega-3. It is frequently loaded with PCBs, mercury, dioxins, and other toxins that need to be filtered out for consumer safety. We extract algae omega-3s through a naturally pure and controlled process. This way, you are guaranteed not to ingest any ocean toxins when taking your plant-based omega-3 supplements.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\n\n\t\t

The purest form
\nof omega-3<\/h3>\n

Omega-3 comes from algae. Fish and krill consume algae, absorbing omega-3 in the process. Thanks to innovative technology, Testa extracts the essential fatty acids directly from algae. This provides you with the purest form of omega-3; without ocean toxins and completely plant-based. Hit the button below to see the entire step-by-step process:<\/p>\n \t\t\t\r\n\t\r\n\t
