DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) from Marine Micro-Algae

Posted on 16.08.2019
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a plant-based substitute for fish, seafood or fish oil capsules. Especially vegetarians, vegans and other people who only eat little fish need alternative DHA sources. Even though our body is able to produce small amounts of DHA from alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), it may not cover the daily requirements of DHA. The fatty acid ALA can be found in chia oil (63 g per 100 g), flaxseed oil (50 g per 100 g) or camelina oil (42 g per 100 g).
