OVEGA-3 Vegan Algae Omega-3 Daily Supplement | Supports Heart, Brain & Eye Health*| No Fishy Aftertaste | 500 mg Omega-3s | 135 mg EPA + 270 mg DHA | Fish Oil Alternative | Vegetarian Softgels 90 CT

Second time I've ordered and the value for the product is spectacular. !00% vegetarian (including capsule!) No fishy taste at all - not harvested from polluted ocean so you are saving not only the marine life but the ecosystem and providing yourself with a necessary supplement - great for vegetarians, vegans and anyone who wants to minimize their impact on our earth and the amount of potential toxins they ingest. The algae that is providing the DHA in Ovega-3 (which is what the fish eat that makes them "beneficial") is grown in tanks so it is a controlled environment not negatively affected by humans detrimental actions on our oceans. This is essential for pregnancy but also helps with depression, brain development (and maintaining our brains) and while the pill is not small it goes down easily with NO FISHY AFTERTASTE AT ALL!! I am guessing this may be the way it is grown but for the amount you get per capsule - you only have to take one a day to equal the sometimes three required by those companies that sell what looks like a giant bottle only to learn you need to take three to five a day "per serving". I feel better when I am taking this along with my other supplements and as a vegan it is great to know I actually found a better source than eating the animal or it's by products - but I recommend it to pregnant friends as well as others who want the DHA benefits sans the contaminants that companies have to try and remove from the product - they aren't in this one to start with...keep up the great work please!!!

I put a lot of study - including multiple nutrition courses on the University level during University - into my nutrition and knew that when I went vegan I would need to be very careful about my selection of supplements, especially for my particular Pacific Islander ethnicity background. Getting enough balanced omegas was one of my critical goals for my health - and, thankfully, this product has more than delivered.Delivery is always on time, product is always sealed and fresh, and the capsules are easy to swallow even though they are a bit larger. They don't have a fishy smell or aftertaste, but they do have a slight scent (they are algae after all) and once or twice I will have a small after-taste, but nothing unpleasant or distracting.I've noticed that the weeks where I've been able to take my capsules regularly my mind feels clearer and sharper. I feel less foggy and mentally flexible. Going without these for about four days I notice a significant "foggy" feeling come over my head. Nothing extreme, but it makes it a pleasant sensation to have the omega supplements back in my diet and that sense of mental sharpness return.As increasing amounts of research comes out over the importance of omegas (and remember, "balanced" omegas is NOT a one-to-one ratio!) especially in terms of cell regeneration, I highly recommend everyone to keep a steady supply of easily accessible omegas in their diet. If you choose to forgo fish, as our family has in going vegan, this is a wonderful supplement to bring into your diet in replacement. I highly recommend it and can honestly say I feel better when I have been taking these steadily.

My Dr. (Cleveland Clinic) suggested I start taking these to combat chronic inflammation I was experiencing. I eat a no-oil, whole-foods NAS diet and getting proper Onega-3s can be a challenge (enter flax seed, walnuts in small amounts, etc...). What I'm amazed by with these gel capsules are the following: my nail ridges are starting to subside after taking these for only a month and a half; my skin is less dry, as is my hair. Inflammation is definitely much less than before; and I have no fishy aftertaste. And, I kept all other self-care variables the same. It's great to have a go-to plant-based Omega-3 formula that doesn't put eggs or fish back into my system. And since I'm sensitive to Gluten (NCGS), I really appreciate that it's Gluten-free. We got the larger bottle of this for a re-order, and the price was even better. My husband is also switching from his fish-based Omega. I would recommend starting at one per day for a month if your provider has prescribed two a day, then build up to two. I found it easier for my body to assimilate. Thanks for a great product!!

I have searched high and low for the best vegan Omega-3 supplement. This is it. It is not cheap, but for about the same price as competitors, it delivers more EPA/DHA, in some cases, much more. This product gets dings in Amazon and other reviews for two reasons:1) It uses Life's Omega as the main ingredient. It has been alleged that Life's Omega uses chemicals (hexane or isopropyl alcohol) to extract the omegas from algae. After looking into this carefully, I found that if it was ever the case that chemicals were used, it is not the case now. So I feel confident in recommending this product.2) It uses carrageenan in the capsule. Again, after researching this, I think the blowback on carrageenan is overblown--it is not a carcinogen as has been alleged. It *may* cause gut discomfort, but in truth, I have the most sensitive gut of anyone I know and I do not have any issues with consuming the capsules. So again, I feel confident in recommending this product.I like this product for another reason--I never have to be concerned about which fish/krill/mollusk or which ocean the omegas come from, whether those creatures are contaminated and whether the contamination has been *completely* removed. One less thing to worry about.
