Vegan Omega-3 DHA-EPA 500 mg by Deva Nutrition

If you avoid fish and want EPA and DHA without relying on flax, this vegan omega-3 DHA EPA fits. ALA from plants doesn’t convert well to EPA/DHA, so algae oil is the direct source to raise an Omega-3 Index. It’s a maintenance-level 500 mg dose, best for plant-based eaters, those with low seafood intake, or pregnancy planning when fish is limited. If your triglycerides are elevated, this amount is usually too low for reduction on its own.

EPA and DHA from microalgae are the same molecules found in fish oil, just grown on land without marine contaminants. They reduce how much fat your liver loads into VLDL particles (the carriers that appear on a lipid panel as triglycerides) and shift cell membranes toward producing calmer signaling molecules, which is why some people see lower hs-CRP (a marker of inflammation). At 500 mg daily, expect steady membrane enrichment more than dramatic lipid changes.

Take one softgel with a meal that contains fat, which improves omega-3 absorption. Consistency matters: recheck your Omega-3 Index after 8 to 12 weeks to see the effect. If your level stays low, consider doubling the daily dose or adding a higher-strength algae or fish oil under guidance. For targeted triglyceride lowering, most responders need grams per day of combined EPA+DHA, not hundreds of milligrams.

Omega-3 can mildly prolong bleeding time; if you take anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs, check with your clinician, though this 500 mg dose is modest. Orlistat (a fat-blocker) and bile acid sequestrants like cholestyramine can reduce absorption; separate dosing by several hours. Fish or shellfish allergy is not a concern with algae oil. If you have upcoming surgery, pause omega-3 a week beforehand unless your surgeon advises otherwise.
