Omega-3s are part of the family of dietary lipids and more specifically of polyunsaturated fatty acids or PUFAs.
Omega-3 fatty acids are necessary for many bodily functions, and some are essential and must be obtained through diet. This is the case with alpha-linolenic acid (ALA, an omega-3). ALA serves as a precursor to other fatty acids that the body can produce from it. Among these are EPA and the well-known DHA . However, it is estimated that the conversion of DHA from ALA is extremely low (1 to 5%), and DHA is therefore considered strictly essential.
Omega-3s are polyunsaturated fatty acids (lipids). They are essential for the proper functioning of the body.
Among the Omega 3s, EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA ( docosahexaenoic acid ) are essential for the proper functioning of our body. They contribute in particular to the structure of cell membranes and are necessary for many biological functions.
Our body cannot synthesize omega-3 fatty acids, but it can convert another fatty acid (ALA) into EPA and DHA. However, the conversion to DHA is always insufficient, and DHA is considered strictly essential and must be obtained through diet.
Among the many functions they perform, Omega 3s are also essential in the prevention of certain cardiovascular diseases, or eye diseases such as AMD; it is necessary and recommended to consume Omega 3s to participate in the proper functioning of the cardiovascular system, the brain, or vision .
The SU.VI.MAX study notably showed that the majority of the population does not consume enough omega-3 and consumes too much omega-6 (found in sunflower oil, among other sources). This unbalanced consumption impairs the proper conversion of ALA into DHA and EPA.
In short, it is considered necessary to consume at least 2 portions of oily fish (salmon, herring, etc.) per week to be able to approach the minimum requirement of our body for omega 3.
Some commercially available vegetable oils are rich in Omega-3, and particularly in ALA. However, consuming these oils and converting them from ALA is not enough to fully meet our DHA requirements.
To meet omega-3 requirements, it is essential to consume enough oily fish. This can be problematic for several reasons (environmental impact, vegan diets, heavy metal contamination, etc.).
It is possible to meet and exceed your omega-3 needs by consuming specially formulated omega-3 supplements. Our OMEGA is a dietary supplement containing plant-based omega-3s, with a high amount of DHA. Therefore, it is advisable to consume our OMEGA supplement if you do not eat enough oily fish , or if you are following a specific diet .
Omega 3s are also essential in the prevention of certain cardiovascular diseases, or eye diseases such as AMD, so it is recommended to consume Omega-3s to participate in the proper maintenance of your brain, or your vision .

OMega is a high-quality food supplement containing plant-based omega-3 fatty acids with a high proportion of DHA. It is a very high-quality food supplement.
Plant-based omega-3s extracted from the microalga Schizochytrium sp. , known for its high DHA ( docosahexaenoic acid ) content (>40%) . These omega-3s are biodiversity-friendly and do not rely on intensive fishing. Their fully controlled origin guarantees their quality and the absence of heavy metal contamination. Thanks to their plant-based source, these omega-3s are suitable for vegan diets .
We use vitamin E (or tocopherol ) to protect our omega-3s from oxidation. This is essential for high-quality omega-3s.
This capsule also protects our omega-3s from oxidation (preferable to liquid forms in bottles) and makes them easier to swallow. As an added bonus, our OMEGA supplement has no unpleasant taste or smell like fish oils.
At Phytocea we are committed to respecting our environment, OMega is 100% plant-based and therefore does not rely on animal exploitation or overfishing.
The microalga Schizochytrium sp. is cultivated in "reactors" that simulate its natural living conditions, allowing for precise control of water quality and nutrient levels. This method prevents heavy metal contamination and ensures a 100% environmentally friendly process. Cultivating Schizochytrium sp. in a highly controlled environment guarantees the exceptional quality of our omega-3 fatty acids.
OMega is packaged in the form of soft capsules, of vegetable origin, with vitamin E which protects our fatty acids against oxidation (one of the main problems of omega 3 packaged in liquid form in a bottle).
OMEga is very rich in DHA (more than 40%), making it an exceptional food supplement.
