Product details
Algal DHA 250 is the result of our long search for a non-GMO, sustainable, plant-based source of nature’s most important Omega-3 fat – DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid). Our DHA is not sourced from fish oil, but is instead isolated from algae, which is the same source that fish use to concentrate their own Omega-3s. Essentially, by using algae, we effectively “cut out the fishy middleman.”
Our algae comes from one of the world’s more unusual places – the Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, Canada. This unique body of water experiences the world’s greatest tidal differentials (50 feet daily) and it is this extreme environment that creates our unique strain of algae and its high concentration of DHA.
Research has long shown that diets rich in Omega-3s, like DHA, are associated with superior heart, brain, eye, circulatory and general health; yet sadly, the American diet delivers alarmingly low levels of these precious fats. As essential as DHA is to life, it cannot be made by the body and its only major sources are cold-water fish and fish oil supplements.
By going directly to the source, our algae-based DHA is the most sustainable supply of the most important Omega-3: DHA. Typical Omega-3 formulas focus on EPA and although essential, it is less costly and less beneficial than DHA. We have always focused on DHA, which is by far the predominant and most important fatty acid in the brain and eye.
Although fish oil has long been praised for its myriad benefits, our Algal DHA 250 provides all the benefits of fish oil, but from a sustainable, plant-based source without the contaminants, stomach upset or fishy aftertaste.

Key benefits
Plant-Based DHA (Fish-Free)
Algal DHA 250 delivers a meaningful dose of DHA sourced directly from algae — the original source fish get their Omega-3s from. A genuine, fish-free way to obtain the most important Omega-3, ideal for those who avoid fish or follow a vegetarian diet. This also means it doesn't have a fishy taste.
Supports Brain Health and Cognition
DHA is the predominant Omega-3 in the brain and a primary structural component of its cell membranes. A daily serving helps support healthy brain function and cognitive wellness throughout adulthood.
Supports Healthy Vision
DHA is highly concentrated in the retina, especially in the membranes of the light-sensing cells that make vision possible. This algal DHA helps support healthy vision and the maintenance of these delicate eye membranes.
Supports Heart and Whole-Body Wellness
DHA is a key Omega-3 the body uses throughout life. It helps support cardiovascular health, including healthy triglyceride levels already within a normal range, along with healthy cell membranes throughout the body. And because our DHA comes from algae grown in controlled conditions, it’s a plant-based source free from ocean-borne contaminants.
Suggested use
Consume one capsule daily. You can increase your intake as required or as guided by your physician.

Frequently asked questions
What is Algal DHA, and where does it come from?
Algal DHA is the Omega-3 fatty acid DHA sourced from algae — the original organism in the marine food chain that produces it, and the same source from which fish obtain their Omega-3s. Each softgel capsule provides a meaningful dose of DHA from non-GMO algal oil, with no fish involved at any stage.
How is this different from fish oil?
It is completely fish-free. The DHA comes directly from algae rather than from fish, which means no fishy taste or aftertaste and a suitable option for those allergic to fish or following a vegetarian diet. One point to note: the softgel capsule itself is a gelatin capsule, so the oil is plant-based, but the product is not suitable for a strict vegan diet.
Why focus on DHA specifically?
DHA is widely regarded as the most important Omega-3. It is the predominant Omega-3 in the brain and a primary structural component of brain and retinal (eye) cell membranes. Concentrating on DHA delivers the Omega-3 most directly tied to brain, vision and cardiovascular support.
Who is Algal DHA 250 a good fit for?
It is well suited to anyone seeking the benefits of Omega-3 DHA without consuming fish — including those with fish allergies, those who dislike the taste of fish oil, and those following a vegetarian diet. It provides a clean, plant-sourced, non-GMO route to daily DHA.
