The new dimension with a high content of vegan and fish-free omega‑3 fatty acids!
Good for eyes, heart and brain!
Omega‑3 fatty acids are healthy, polyunsaturated fatty acids. They are essential substances and cannot be produced by the body itself.
In particular, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are found in algae, small marine crustaceans and especially in fish, are vital. They provide our body cells with essential structure because they are building blocks of cell walls and the membranes inside the cell. Especially in the brain, eyes and heart muscle, large amounts of the marine omega‑3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are incorporated.
However, marine omega‑3 is disappearing more and more from our diet. Plant-based omega‑3 (alpha-linolenic acid, ALA) can only be converted into EPA and DHA in trace amounts and therefore cannot meet our omega‑3 needs. That is why we must pay attention to our supply of EPA and DHA.
BIOBENE® OMEGA‑3 Vegan contains a fatty acid combination specially formulated to maintain normal vision and brain function (250 mg DHA daily), as well as EPA + DHA to contribute to normal heart function (250 mg daily).
EPA is responsible for reactions within the cell and DHA for the permeability of the cell membrane, and both thus contribute to the normal function of the heart. The brain consists of 60 percent fat, and about 40 percent of brain fats consist of the substances DHA and EPA.
In the eye, unsaturated fatty acids are important for the retina. A deficiency of these fatty acids can lead to dry and irritated eyes.
The special feature of BIOBENE® OMEGA‑3 Vegan is the extraction of DHA and EPA from algae oil, the vegan alternative to fish or krill oil! This is particularly important because vegetarians who eat little fish or avoid fish altogether, as well as vegans, do not consume the recommended daily amount of 200–300 mg of the essential fatty acids EPA and DHA.
BIOBENE® OMEGA‑3 Vegan, which has a vegan capsule shell, can now optimally compensate for this deficiency.
With one capsule per day, the following positive effects occur according to REGULATION (EU) No. 432/2012 (Health Claim Regulation):
- DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal vision
- DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function
- EPA and DHA contribute to normal heart function
INGREDIENTS: DHA- and EPA-rich oil from the microalgae Schizochytrium sp., soft starch capsule (modified pea starch (E1440), humectant: glycerol (E422), thickening agent: carrageenan), sunflower oil, antioxidant: tocopherol-rich extracts (E306), ascorbyl palmitate (E304), rosemary extract (E392).
