Algae oil DHA and flaxseed oil ALA

Omega-3 fats are among our essential nutrients. That means, as with most vitamins, you need to get them through diet. Since many people don't like the real fatty fish (herring, mackerel, sardines), an Omega-3 supplement such as fish oil or algae oil is helpful.

Omega-3 fatty acids are among the nutrients that have been best researched. Thousands of studies have been done on the importance of these good fats for our health. Hence, the European government has also made official health claims that articulate the effect of Omega-3 fats on the body.

Ideally, the oil should be used with other fats in a meal. E.g. stirred into cottage cheese for breakfast. So pure from the spoon can also be used when you have eaten.

Ingredients: flaxseed oil and algae oil (Schizochytrium sp. algae oil, high oleic acid sunflower oil, rosemary extract, antioxidant (natural tocopherols, ascorbyl palmitate)). Algae oil is made from cultured (cultivated) microalgae in a closed system without environmental influences from outside. Such a fermentation process is similar to how yogurt (using bacteria) and beer (using yeasts) are made Next, the oil is naturally extracted from the algae and antioxidant is added to protect the oil. A very small amount of sunflower oil serves to keep the amount of Omega-3 DHA constant (as it fluctuates a bit with the natural algae). The flaxseed oil is cold-pressed and not refined (as usual) so the sensitive Omega-3 fatty acids are not damaged by high temperatures. This is also why the oil retains its natural spicy flavor and why it can be stored in the refrigerator much longer (than standard industrial oil). The flaxseed oil is also not filtered but decanted. This is the pouring over of the oil to separate the indigestible husks from the oil. This leaves the oil cloudy: a sign of the presence of a variety of rich nutrients such as tocopherols, cartenoids and lignans.
