Algal Oil in MegToc-Vegan

The Direct DHA Source: provides a direct plant source of DHA

Algal Oil

What it is

Algal oil comes from microalgae, the original source of DHA. Fish get their DHA by eating microalgae; MegToc-Vegan goes straight to that source, without the fish.

How it works

Because algal oil already contains DHA, the body does not have to convert it from a plant precursor. Algal-oil DHA has been shown to raise blood DHA, with vegetarians and vegans reaching levels similar to omnivores.

What it supports

  • Ready-made DHA, with no conversion needed
  • A 100% plant-sourced, fish-oil-free omega-3
  • Brain, eye and heart support through its DHA

Why it is included

Algal oil is what separates MegToc-Vegan from ALA-only vegan omegas, which supply only the precursor and hope for conversion.

Its role in MegToc-Vegan

Algal oil supplies direct DHA; Flaxseed Oil adds ALA plus omega-6 and omega-9; Tocotrienols protect the delicate oils from oxidation.

About MegToc-Vegan

MegToc-Vegan is a 100% plant-sourced omega-3 that gives vegetarians, vegans and fish-oil avoiders ready-made DHA directly from algae. Most plant omegas supply only ALA, which the body converts poorly into DHA; MegToc-Vegan supplies the finished nutrient.
