What’s In My Clinic Cabinet: Free Spirit Mega Omega Algal Oil
If you think omega-3s only come from fish, think again.
The Vegan Omega-3 Powerhouse
Free Spirit Mega Omega Algal Oil delivers DHA and EPA—the active forms of omega-3 your body actually uses—without a single fish in sight. This matters especially for vegetarians and vegans, particularly if you carry genetic variants in FADS1 or FADS2 genes that impair your body’s ability to convert plant-based omega-3s like flaxseed oil into usable DHA and EPA.
Why DHA Matters
DHA is crucial for brain health, cognitive function, memory, and mood regulation. It’s particularly important for anyone managing ADHD or carrying the APOE4 genotype, where higher DHA intake supports optimal brain function.
The Numbers
Just 2ml contains a whopping 1000mg (1 gram) of DHA. Compare that to a standard fish oil capsule with around 120mg DHA—you’d need to swallow 8-9 capsules to get the same amount!
Why I Love This Product:
✓ Concentrated DHA for maximum brain support ✓ Clean lemon taste - No fishy smell or aftertaste ✓ Easy liquid form - No giant capsules to swallow ✓ Kid-friendly - Hide in smoothies, yoghurt, or give straight (my kids open up like baby birds for their daily dose!) ✓ Vegan and sustainable - Algae-derived, not fish-derived ✓ Genetic support - Essential if you have FADS gene variants
