Omega-3 fatty acids serve as building blocks for cell membranes or as energy carriers. They also contribute to normal brain function, the maintenance of normal vision, and normal heart function.
Instead of obtaining EPA and DHA from fish or shellfish, we use only high-quality algae oil (PureAlgaeOmega3™) in OMEGA VEGAN. Thanks to a gentle extraction process, we achieve a high purity of the ingredients.

What is Omega 3 Vegan High EPA?
In order for our heart, brain, and eyes to function properly, they require sufficient omega-3 fatty acids. These belong to the group of polyunsaturated fatty acids and are essential, meaning they must be obtained through diet or supplementation.
One of the most valuable sources of omega-3 fatty acids is fatty fish. However, for those who avoid fish for various reasons, such as a vegan diet, our OMEGA VEGAN is the perfect alternative. This product offers the same health benefits as traditional sources and is perfectly tailored to the needs of a plant-based diet.
OMEGA VEGAN contains a high proportion of essential omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA (eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid). DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and vision. EPA and DHA contribute to the maintenance of normal heart function. The positive effect is achieved with a daily intake of 250 mg EPA and DHA.1
Instead of obtaining EPA and DHA from fish or shellfish, we use exclusively high-quality algae oil (PureAlgaeOmega3™) in OMEGA VEGAN. It's good to know that fish feed on algae and get their omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA from them as well. Even though fish are part of a species-appropriate diet and the production from algae is more complex, there is no need for this detour in this case. By going directly to the source of omega-3 fatty acids, we can also support those who have chosen a vegan lifestyle.
Thanks to a gentle extraction process, we achieve a high purity of the ingredients, so OMEGA VEGAN, like all our products, is offered in premium quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Omega-3 Fatty Acids?
Omega-3 fatty acids, along with omega-6 fatty acids, are part of the group of polyunsaturated fats and are essential. This means they must be obtained through diet as the body cannot produce them on its own. The most important omega-3 fatty acids include alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), from which docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are formed. Because there is often an imbalance between omega-3 and omega-6 in the Western diet, where we consume too much omega-6, supplementing with EPA and DHA is recommended as they play a crucial role in many vital body functions.
Why is the right ratio of Omega-3 and Omega-6 important?
Our modern diet is often rich in omega-6 and relatively low in omega-3 fatty acids. This imbalance can manifest in inflammatory processes. Inflammation can be triggered by omega-6 fatty acids (arachidonic acids), while omega-3 fatty acids (eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid) act as counteractive messengers to inhibit this process. However, this works only when omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids are in a good balance.
What are the functions of Omega-3 Fatty Acids?
DHA helps maintain normal brain function and vision. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal functioning of the heart. The positive effects are observed with a daily intake of 250 mg EPA and DHA.1 Replacing saturated fats with monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fats in the diet also supports the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels.
Can you meet your Omega-3 needs solely through plant-based foods?
Many plant-based foods contain ALA, which the body can convert into EPA and DHA. However, the conversion process is limited, which is why many people opt for algae oil to directly obtain EPA and DHA.
Are there any side effects from taking Omega-3 supplements?
Omega-3 is generally well-tolerated, but high doses can cause stomach discomfort. If in doubt, it is advised to consult a doctor. However, an overdose is very unlikely. A 2012 study by the EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) concluded that daily additional intake of up to 5g of combined EPA and DHA is considered safe for the general population.
Why is algae oil a sustainable source of Omega-3?
Algae oil protects marine ecosystems as it does not contribute to overfishing and requires fewer resources to produce.
How should Omega-3 be taken?
Ideally, Omega-3 supplements should be taken with a fatty meal to kickstart fat digestion and enhance the absorption of the valuable omega-3 fatty acids. Here you can find delicious recipe ideas.
Can I take artgerecht Omega-3 products if I have a histamine intolerance?
Yes, artgerecht Omega-3 products are generally well-tolerated by individuals with histamine intolerance. Properly produced fish or algae oil is considered safe because histamine is poorly soluble in fats. Algae oil also has the advantage of being plant-based and does not contain other histamine-containing substances. However, if you experience severe reactions or have concerns, it is recommended to consult a doctor or nutritionist to rule out individual reactions.
