Capsules are easy to swallow as not very big.There is no fishy smell as all algae which is fantastic. There’s is therefore no repeating the taste later in the day.I think there is fair amount of product for the price and I would be happy to purchase again

There is absolutely no fishy taste. I have not been taking this for a month yet however I have noticed my skin does not seem to be so dry.Very good and I will order again

Same quality algae oil as other brands but more affordable. They don't have a strong fishy smell either. The packaging isn't aesthetically pleasing however it's what's inside that matters to me personally!

I'm one of those people who browse through all the search results to find the best value vegan product.The important criteria here are the price (obviously) and the amount of EPA and DHA.The EPA and DHA here is as high as any other vegan omega 3 supplement, while the price per capsule is among the lowest (by 50% in some cases!).The human body doesn't need much oil: it's around 2% of calories: and most fatty acids (found in dietary oils) can be produced by the body from other oils or fats. Omega 3 and Omega 6 are the two oils which the body cannot manufacture from other oils, so they're considered essential.Omega 6 is plentiful. Omega 3 is much rarer. Worse than that; the essential metabolites of Omega 3 (EPA and DHA) don't convert from Omega 3 efficiently, so it's a sensible safeguard to supplement them.And this is the best-value product to do just that.

With so many Vegans now adopting the plant based approach it is becoming more an more important to get this vital supplement in one of the three forms available.Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA): This is the plant-based form of omega-3 found in flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts, and hemp seeds. The body can convert ALA into EPA and DHA, but this conversion is inefficient.Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA): This is a marine-based omega-3 found in fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, and sardines. EPA is linked to various health benefits, including heart health and reduced inflammation.Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA): This is another marine-based omega-3 found in fatty fish, algae, and krill oil. DHA is essential for brain and eye development, especially during infancy and childhood.It's important to note that while ALA can be converted into EPA and DHA, the conversion rate is low.Consuming EPA and DHA directly from marine sources or supplements is generally considered more beneficial for overall health since the body can have a low efficiency of conversion to ALA and EPA.By taking these supplements we can give ourselves the best chance of maintain those ALA and EPA levels. It is worth mentioning that recent studies also show a correlation between cognitive impairment and low Omega 3 levels.After researching this for some time and checking al the products available, this one is very good value for money and also made in the UK. Being made from Algae oil means although it is ALA and EPA no animals were harmed in its production, so its vegan. It is also gluten freeMy only concern (as with most supplements) is the lack of clarity on third party testing. With so many heavy metals in our waters without third part testing for purity we are essentially hoping the any metal contamination is low and below any thresholds likely to be a health issue. Aside from that I do like this product and at around £7 per month (taking 2 per day) offers great value too.

I was after some non-fishy, omega 3 oil alternatives. I tried fish oil, but they always repeated on me and I found the smell of them unpleasant. I've been taking these for a few days now and they seem great. They don't have much of a smell, they're easy to swallow and they haven't caused any digestion issues.

Vitamin E is a chiral molecule that comes in left and right handed forms. Nature chose one of the two but I noticed they add the synthetic form which has both. I would not buy a vitamin E supplement containing this form and don't appreciate it being used in this product."From The November 2001 Issue of Nutrition Science Newsby Jack ChallemThere is little difference between the natural and synthetic forms of most vitamins. But with vitamin E, natural is better.On a supplement label, natural vitamin E is listed as d-alpha tocopherol, d-alpha tocopheryl acetate, or d-alpha tocopheryl succinate. In contrast, synthetic forms of vitamin E are labeled with a dl- prefix.Alpha-tocopherol is the most biologically active form of vitamin E, and its natural form consists of one isomer. In contrast, synthetic alpha-tocopherol contains eight different isomers, of which only one (about 12 percent of the synthetic molecule) is identical to natural vitamin E. The other seven isomers range in potency from 21 percent to 90 percent of natural d-alpha-tocopherol.... Search online for full article"
