Omega-3 comes from algae, not from fish. Fish contain omega-3 because they eat algae. Unfortunately, that is not the only thing they contain nowadays. Fish are often full of PCBs and other toxins that need to be filtered out first. We extract omega-3 directly from algae in a pure, controlled process.
Most sources of omega-3 DHA and EPA are not plant-based and are therefore not suitable for vegetarians and vegans. For vegetarians and vegans it is particularly important to take extra DHA and EPA because ALA can only be converted into DHA and EPA to a limited extent. Omega-3 based on algae oil is one of the few natural animal-free sources of the much-needed DHA and EPA.
The only reason why fish and krill contain omega-3 is that they eat algae. This means that the good fatty acids we need originate in algae.
So why take fish or krill oil capsules? We can easily skip this extra step in the omega-3 food chain and obtain the fatty acids directly from algae instead.
If you choose algae oil capsules, you are not only putting your own health first, but also helping to maintain a healthy fish and krill population and a healthy environment. Below we will list some more facts.
Fish do not make omega 3 themselves, but extract it from algae. Since there is no impact of environmental pollution on the algae it is free from residues like heavy metals, mercury, pesticides or dioxines, as found in many natural fish oils.
Testa obtains the highest-quality plant-based omega 3 from farmed algae without the use of fatty fish.
