WHAT IS
OMEGA 3?
Omega 3 is an essential fatty acid that supports the health of our brain, heart, joints and skin. It is considered an ‘essential’ fatty acid as it cannot be produced by our bodies, so must therefore be consumed through our diet.
FOR THE
OCEANS
Every day entire ecosystems of fish and marine life are wiped out by modern fishing methods. It is estimated that if this continues at the current rate we will see a complete collapse in the world’s fish populations by 2048.
Our omega 3 is taken from algae sustainably grown in controlled environments, meaning that no fish are killed and no oceanic ecosystems are destroyed as a result.
FOR YOUR
HEALTH
Consuming omega 3 from algae is the purest form of omega 3 available. That’s because due to ocean pollution most fish contain harmful levels of heavy metals and other contaminants.
Our omega 3 is grown in controlled environments free from pollution, and is third party tested for heavy metals, PCBs, dioxins and other harmful contaminants.
FOR THE LIVING™
Did you know that approximately 25% of the global fish catch is used to produce omega 3? This puts tremendous pressure on oceanic ecosystems and kills billions of fish each year.
Our algae derived omega 3 doesn’t deplete our oceans or cause any harm to fish or other marine life. Oh, and there’s no fishy aftertaste!
A CLEANER OMEGA
Did you know that omega 3 originally comes from algae, not fish?
Just like us fish only get their omega 3 by the foods that they eat.
TRADITIONAL OMEGA 3
The sun’s energy is converted into omega 3 by schizochytrium algae in the sea
The algae is eaten by small crustaceans such as krill
The krill are then eaten by fish...
...then the fish are caught and killed to make omega 3 supplements

VIVO LIFE OMEGA 3
The sun's energy is converted into omega 3 by schizochytrium algae grown in controlled, unpolluted environment
Algae is harvested and the omega 3 rich oil is gently extracted to make Vivo omega 3

As algae is much lower down the food chain than fish it provides a more efficient and sustainable source of omega 3, and doesn't cause any harm to marine life.
Algae omega 3 is also much cleaner as it is grown in unpolluted environments and doesn't contain the heavy metals and contaminants found in fish.
I ALREADY EAT
FLAXSEED?
Do I still need an omega 3 supplement?
Seeds such as flax, hemp and chia seed contain a form of omega 3 called alpha-linolenic acid, or ALA for short. But in order for it to be used by our bodies ALA must first be converted into longer chain omega 3 fatty acids known as EPA and DHA.
Unfortunately the conversion rates of ALA to EPA and DHA are not good, with an average 8% conversion to EPA and 0.5% to DHA. This means you would need to eat almost half a kilo of flaxseed daily just to get half a gram of DHA!
Of course, you should still eat all different kinds of nuts and seeds for the other health benefits, but they should not be relied on as a good source of omega 3.
Just 2ml of Vivo Omega 3 from algae provides 300mg of omega 3 EPA and 600mg of omega 3 DHA.
HOW TO USE
Using the dropper consume 2ml daily, or as directed by your health professional.
2ml contains 300mg of EPA and 600mg of DHA.
Once opened keep refrigerated.

HEAVY METAL TESTED
According to a 2018 study by Clean Label Project, alarming levels of heavy metals such as arsenic, mercury and lead have been found in some of the most popular protein products on the market.
DOWNLOAD REPORTOUR APPROACH
Heavy metals find their way into protein powders when big brands grow ingredients on huge industrial farms with poor soil quality and heavy reliance on chemical fertilisers and pesticides. They then skip the all important heavy metal checks to save their precious profit margins, resulting in protein powders that are potentially toxic to our health.
Seeing this research made us even more determined to produce the healthiest, cleanest and safest on the planet. This is why we only source the highest quality ingredients and batch test our products to ensure they are 100% safe.
TO ENSURE OUR PRODUCTS ARE
100% SAFE WE FOLLOW THESE THREE STEPS:
TRUSTED SUPPLIERS
To ensure we are using the highest quality ingredients possible we only work with suppliers, farmers and growers that we know and trust.
All of our suppliers meet strict EU compliance and quality control standards, and grow according to our VGANIC brand promise, so we can guarantee that no corners are being cut when growing our ingredients.
TESTING AT SOURCE
All of the ingredients we use in our products are tested at the source for heavy metals and other contaminants. This way we can guarantee that they are safe before they even come into our manufacturing facility.
BATCH TESTING
All of our products are third party tested for heavy metals and other contaminants. To see our latest lab results click the button above to download the report.
