Unless other natural Omega-3 supplements talk about EPA & DHA, they cannot be compared to Opti3. Most plant-based Omega-3 supplements including Flaxseed Oil, Evening Primrose Oil and Chia Oil provide Omega-3 in the inferior form of ALA. Please read the previous FAQ page about the importance of EPA & DHA for full details. Every ingredient in Opti3 is guaranteed to be 100% Vegetarian and Vegan suitable.
Food allergies and Opti3
Opti3 is free from gluten, wheat, dairy and sugar-based ingredients. Allergies to fish oil are usually associated with proteins in fish, so such individuals should be fine to take Opti3 (although we recommend consulting your Doctor first). Opti3 contains Vitamin E of sunflower origin.
Is Opti3 obtained from the ocean?
Opti3 is from algae, but grown and produced in a Pharmaceutical facility rather than taken from the sea. This ensures optimum purity, guarantees the product is free from contaminants and of course leaves our oceans alone!
When shouldn’t I take Opti3?
Opti3 is designed to be suitable for everyone, but if you are taking blood thinning drugs (e.g. Warfarin), please speak to your Doctor before taking Opti3 or indeed any nutritional supplements.
Is hexane extraction used?
No. We are delighted to confirm our extraction process does not use hexane or other harmful solvents.
Opti3 is actually higher strength than most fish oil supplements in terms of EPA & DHA levels, offering the high dose of minimum 250mg EPA and 500mg DHA per 2 capsules.
Can I give Opti3 to my pets?
It is very common for Opti3 to be given to cats and dogs. Some of our customers pierce the capsules and add the oil to pet food, but we’re told some pets are quite happy munching the capsules themselves! There are reports of specific benefits to animals including joint care and general health. There is no problem in giving Opti3 to your pets.
Is the Vitamin D3 in Opti3 Vegan suitable?
Yes! Our exclusive Vitamin D3 technology is 100% plant source and registered with the Vegan Society and Vegetarian Society. The level included in Opti3 (200iu per daily dose) is suitable for people of all ages, including babies and children.
