What are plant-based omega-3 fatty acids?

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for a balanced plant-based diet. Many people choose flaxseed or walnuts as a source of omega-3, but there are different types of omega-3 fatty acids. In this article, we discuss the differences between ALA from flaxseed and DHA/EPA from algal oil, and explain how vegan omega-3 from algal oil can be a valuable addition to a vegan diet.

The difference between ALA from flaxseed and DHA/EPA from algal oil

Although flaxseed and walnuts are rich in ALA, the body converts only a small fraction of this ALA into the biologically active forms DHA and EPA. This conversion can vary depending on several factors. DHA and EPA are naturally present in algae, and fish obtain these fatty acids by consuming algae. Therefore, algae oil is a direct, plant-based source of DHA and EPA for people who do not consume animal products. Plenthera offers a 100% plant-based omega-3 supplement made from algae:Plantforce Vegan Omega-3 Algae Oil 120 softgels. Also, check out all variants in ourPlantforce Vegan Omega-3 collection.
