Say hello to this vegan omega-3 supplement that serves up essential fatty acids from algal oil (algae!) instead of fish oil to support your heart, brain, eyes, and immune system. A plant-based source of omega-3 has so many benefits over traditional fish-based sources – less impact on the marine ecosystem, reduced potential for marine contaminants, and a product without a fishy smell or aftertaste. All the good stuff, none of the bad!

GREEN OMEGA-3 AT A GLANCE

• Supports heart and circulatory health

Compared to other vegan omega-3 supplements, Green Omega 3 softgels contain one of the highest amounts of DHA and EPA. Each serving packs 330 mg of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and 160 mg of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) from a pure plant source—marine algae. This incredible formula also contains flaxseed oil, which is naturally rich in ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), and Clove essential for its antioxidant properties. Together, these plant- based ingredients give you all the benefits of fish oil supplements without the fishy aftertaste!

THE IMPORTANCE OF OMEGA-3S The health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids have been well-studied and established, and almost all physicians will recommend an omega-3 supplement! Omega-3s are synonymous with heart health, have a reputation for being anti-inflammatory, and help the body reduce blood clots. DHA and EPA also help reduce triglyceride levels – a specific type of cholesterol that can turn into blood clots.

The brain and eyes are also highly enriched with omega-3 fatty acids, making DHA and EPA critical for healthy cognitive function and eyesight. In fact, a natural treatment for macular degeneration is an omega-3 fatty acid capsule that contains EPA and DHA because it helps relieve intraocular pressure.

The brain is made mostly of fat, and it functions especially well with high levels of EPA and DHA. These omega-3s the brain's communication processes and reduce inflammation, which can help slow aging. This means you have more mental clarity, a better memory, easier decision making, and a better mood when you have enough omegas!

Omegas also help to reduce inflammation – a main culprit for many of the most common ailments we face. Preliminary studies suggest that omega-3s may even help improve symptoms of osteoarthritis and joint pain!

OMEGA 3S AND PREGNANCY But omega-3s aren't just for those who want healthy hearts! Omega-3 requirements increase during pregnancy in order to aid brain growth, especially as it accelerates during the second half of pregnancy and continues through birth.

And these omegas aren't just for the growing babe. Moms need them too, especially during postpartum healing. Did you know that omegas can help with our moods? Getting enough good fatty acids like EPA and DHA go a long way when it comes to recovery – physical, mental and emotion!

GREEN OMEGA 3 KEY INGREDIENTS

• Algal oil: a plant-based source of DHA and EPA, derived from algae; DHA accounts for 97% of the omega-3 fats in the human brain, making it critical for cognitive function and heart, brain and eye health.
• Flaxseed oil: rich in omega-3 fatty acids in the form of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a well-researched fatty acid that promotes heart health and helps decrease the incidence of cardiovascular disease; contains 50- 60% ALA, making it even more anti-inflammatory than fish oil
• Clove essential oil: an antioxidant powerhouse that supports the body from the inside out; has the highest ORAC value (antioxidant value) of all know foods and plants to help reduce inflammation, support organ health, promote longevity, and maintain overall wellness.

FULL INGREDIENT LIST Algal (Schizochytrium sp.) oil, Tapioca starch, Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum) oil, Glycerin, Water, Clove† (Syzygium aromaticum) flower bud essential oil, Vitamin E (as d-alpha-tocopherol)

WHY A PLANT-BASED FORMULA Algae are easy to grow, requiring only sunlight, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and phosphorus, making algae farming one of the few operations with a neutral carbon footprint. And they are a wonderful source of the EPA and DHA that make fish oil so healthy for our bodies!

As the world's population grows and puts pressure on wild fisheries, alternative plant-based sources of omega-3s, like algal oil, are becoming increasingly popular. Algal oil provides a sustainable way to supplement your nutritional needs and positively impacts the planet.
