Omega 3 Fish Oil
Fish oil is the most well-known source of omega 3. Zechsal’s omega 3 fish oil contains the essential fatty acids DHA and EPA, with a unique addition: sea buckthorn oil. This makes our oil rich in omega 7, which helps hydrate the skin and mucous membranes.
Why choose Zechsal omega 3 fish oil?
- No strong fishy taste or aftertaste like cheaper alternatives.
- DHA and EPA in an optimal ratio for maximum absorption.
- Extra omega 7 for skin and mucous membrane support.
- Mild flavor and easy to take.
Many fish oil capsules on the market are oxidized, which causes an unpleasant smell and taste. At Zechsal, we guarantee pure and fresh fish oil with a mild flavor.
Omega 3 Algae Oil
For those who don’t eat fish, omega 3 algae oil is the perfect alternative. Algae are the original source of omega 3—the same source fish get their fatty acids from. Zechsal offers 100% plant-based and sustainable algae oil containing both DHA and EPA.
Benefits of Zechsal omega 3 algae oil:
- 100% vegan and sustainable.
- Contains DHA and EPA, just like fish oil.
- Suitable for all ages.
- Mild taste and no aftertaste.
You don’t need to eat fish when you can go straight to the source. Choose algae oil and enjoy all the benefits of omega 3 without any animal products.
Omega 3 and Omega 3 Fatty Acids: What You Need to Know
Omega 3 is a family of polyunsaturated fatty acids that are essential for your body. These fatty acids can support various bodily functions, including the brain, heart, and vision.
The three main types of omega 3 fatty acids are:
- DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) – supports brain function and contributes to healthy vision. DHA is a key building block of the brain and is therefore especially important for pregnant women and young children.
- EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) – has a beneficial effect on the heart and helps maintain normal blood pressure. EPA often works together with DHA to regulate inflammatory responses in the body.
- ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) – a plant-based fatty acid found in seeds and nuts. The body can convert a small amount of ALA into DHA and EPA, but this conversion is inefficient. That’s why it’s recommended to get DHA and EPA directly through food or supplements.
Where can you find omega 3?
Omega 3 fatty acids are found in various foods, but the concentration can vary greatly. The main sources of omega 3 are:
- ALA (alpha-linolenic acid): flaxseed, chia seeds, walnuts, canola oil, and soybeans.
- EPA & DHA: mainly found in fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, herring, sardines, and anchovies. Also present in algae oil, a plant-based source of omega 3 suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
Although fatty fish is one of the best sources of EPA and DHA, many people don’t eat enough fish to meet their daily omega 3 needs. Does this apply to you? Then Zechsal omega 3 supplements can help ensure you’re getting enough.
What is omega 3 good for?
Omega 3 fatty acids have numerous health benefits and are involved in various bodily processes. Omega 3 supports the heart and blood pressure, as EPA and DHA contribute to maintaining normal blood pressure. Additionally, DHA may play a role in brain function and memory, as it is an important building block for the brain and cognitive functions.
What is the recommended daily intake (RDI) for omega 3?
The exact amount of omega 3 you need daily depends on factors such as age, gender, and lifestyle. However, general guidelines include:
- Healthy adults: at least 250–500 mg of EPA and DHA per day for overall health
- Pregnant and breastfeeding women: at least 300 mg of DHA per day, with 200 mg specifically DHA for the baby’s development
- Children: recommendations vary by age, but generally range from 100–250 mg of EPA and DHA per day
- People at higher risk of cardiovascular disease: often advised to take 1000 mg per day for optimal heart support
Although some people get enough through their diet, most do not consume enough fatty fish or plant-based omega 3 sources. That’s why Zechsal omega 3 supplements can be a valuable way to ensure you meet your daily needs.
Does omega-3 have side effects?
Omega-3 supplements are generally safe and well tolerated. At extremely high doses, some people may experience mild side effects such as:
- Digestive issues like bloating or diarrhea.
- An increased tendency to bleed (consult your doctor if you use blood thinners).
- Sometimes a slight increase in blood pressure with excessive use of certain fatty acids.
- With prolonged high doses, the immune system may be affected.
- A fishy taste or burps with cheap, low-quality fish oil.
Zechsal omega-3 supplements have a mild taste and are formulated to ensure optimal absorption without an unpleasant aftertaste. Thanks to the careful purification processes Zechsal applies, the supplements contain no harmful oxidants or impurities that can be found in cheaper omega-3 products. This allows you to supplement with confidence.
When to take omega-3?
For optimal absorption, it is recommended to take omega-3 with a meal that contains fats. This helps with the absorption of the fatty acids and prevents possible digestive discomfort. Especially at breakfast or dinner, it can be a convenient addition to your routine. Some people find it pleasant to take omega-3 before going to bed.
Do I have an omega-3 deficiency: symptoms
An omega-3 deficiency can cause serious health problems, depending on the severity and duration of the deficiency. Because omega-3 fatty acids play a role in heart health, brain function, and blood pressure, a deficiency can lead to increased risks of cardiovascular disease and cognitive decline.
In addition, a prolonged deficiency can contribute to concentration problems, for example. In pregnant women, insufficient omega-3 can negatively affect the baby's brain development.
Although a mild deficiency is not immediately dangerous, it can worsen overall health in the long term. Supplementing with high-quality omega-3 can help prevent deficiencies.
Which groups are most at risk of an omega-3 deficiency?
Certain groups are at greater risk of an omega-3 deficiency. This includes:
- People who eat little or no fish, such as vegetarians and vegans. For them, omega-3 algae oil from Zechsal is an excellent solution.
- Pregnant and breastfeeding women, because DHA is essential for the baby’s brain development. Supplementing with a high-quality source like Zechsal can support this.
- Older adults, as the absorption and conversion of ALA to EPA and DHA becomes less efficient with age.
Are you experiencing these symptoms or do you belong to a risk group? Then using omega-3 supplements may offer a solution.
Omega 3 During pregnancy
Maternal intake of DHA contributes to the proper development of the eyes of the fetus and of breastfed infants, and supports the development of the baby’s brain function. During pregnancy, it is therefore especially important to get enough omega-3. It contributes to the healthy development of the baby.
Can you take omega-3 as a vegetarian?
Yes! Vegetarians and vegans can opt for omega-3 algae oil, a 100% plant-based source of DHA and EPA. Algae oil offers the same benefits as fish oil but is sustainable and completely free of animal products.
By choosing algae oil from Zechsal, you get the same health benefits as fish oil without harming the environment. This makes it the perfect choice for conscious consumers who value sustainability and quality.
With Zechsal, you don’t have to compromise when it comes to your health.
