Bare Biology Vim & Vigour Vegan Omega-3 & Astaxanthin Caps 60

For plant-powered wellbeing. Live life to the full with a daily dose of pure omega-3 & astaxanthin, all from algae.

Made from natural algae oil, these vegan-friendly omega-3 capsules are rich in essential fatty acids DHA and EPA that support brain, heart and eye health.

Astaxanthin is the main reason people buy krill oil supplements. It’s a carotenoid which gives salmon and shellfish their pink colour. It’s great to eat the rainbow and now you can get your ‘pink’ food from this sustainably sourced algae.

Omega-3 & astaxanthin per dose: 2 capsules contain 500mg DHA, 250mg EPA & 4mg astaxanthin.

Sustainably grown algae: We only use sustainably sourced algae in our vegan omega 3 supplements. For the omega 3 we use schizochytrium sp.algae. And for the astaxanthin we use schizochytrium algae.

IFOS 5 Star Certified Purity: Every batch is independently tested on top of the tests we carry out. Your guarantee the capsules are pure, fresh and safe. Our results are published below.

A bit more about carrageenan:

It’s a red seaweed which has been sustainably cultivated since the 1960s and requires minimal processing.  The one we use is from the USA.  It replaces animal-based products. It has been used as a thickener for centuries and processing is mild.

It has previously been mistaken for poligeenan, aka ‘degraded carrageenan’, which is used in medical imaging applications and is considered a carcinogen. Poligeenan is not a food additive. Poligeenan and carrageenan are two separate compounds with different chemical properties and molecular weight. Carrageenan does not degrade into, or turn into, poligeenan during digestion because the necessary conditions (temperature and pH) do not exist in the human digestive tract.
