How it works
PROVIDES A VEGAN FORM OF DHA
Omega-3 fats curb inflammation in the body. They need to be consumed in a balance with omega-6 fats, which promote inflammation. Modern diets contain much more omega-6, which can cause chronic inflammation - a leading cause of lifestyle diseases.
DHA, an omega-3 fat that plays a large role in curbing inflammation, is also an important structural part of the brain, eyes, nerves, and cells. Its main dietary source is fish.
Nutrova Complete Omega 3 contains a vegan-sourced DHA, making it ideal for vegans (or people who don’t consume fish).

Yes, DHA from marine algae is globally recognised as safe and without any side effects. However, pregnant or lactating women, people with medical conditions or people on chronic medication should first consult their doctors
It’s important to have at least 1 capsule daily, but we encourage you to have 2, given the minimal intake of this nutrient in a typical vegan or vegetarian diet.
Flaxseed oil is an excellent source of short-chain omega-3 fats (ALA), but does not contain DHA, the omega-3 fat that forms a part of our brain, nerves, eyes and skin. Our body can convert ALA to DHA, but in a very low conversion rate (only 1 to 4% gets converted). Directly consuming DHA is important in order to derive its proven health benefits.
It’s perfectly safe to consume for any duration you choose.
Yes, all our products are designed to work well both individually and together. For vegan individuals, we would recommend taking this product along with Nutrova Formula V, a multivitamin designed with nutrients that are otherwise low in vegan diets.
