Product Description
DEVA Vegan Omega-3 DHA is a quality product derived from algae and packaged in non-animal softgels made from carrageenan and starch. This makes an excellent alternative to fish oil and can be confidently used by vegetarians and vegans alike. DHA is a long chain polyunsaturated omega-3 oil. It is an essential fatty acid, meaning that the body doesn’t produce it by itself and it must be obtained in the diet. DHA is one of the most prominent essential fatty acids in the brain and in the retina. DEVA Omega-3 DHA is 100% vegan, vegetarian and is certified by the Vegan Society, the non-profit organization that actually invented the word "vegan".

DEVA Vegan Vitamins Vegan DHA (Algae) 200mg Vegan Softgels, 90-Count Bottle
Without two or three servings of fish weekly, it is very difficult to get enough DHA in the diet. I am allergic to many fish and fish oils making it almost impossible. Omega 3 oils include both EPA and DHA. I take ground flax seed to obtain the EPA but it does not have the DHA needed. Krill Oil is considerably more expensive, and has 1/5th the DHA of DEVA Algae oil.
I strongly suggest avoiding "discount" suppliers of the algae oil. Some of these reviews note a strong or unpleasant flavor or taste - as well as capsules that are hard or fishy. These are indicative of "old" product which SHOULD BE RETURNED. For a product like this, you should always check the "Seller Ratings" and DO NOT PURCHASE BASED ON PRICE (like I did). If the seller has negative ratings for very late shipping, sending the wrong product, or sending old product, they are a discounter and SHOULD BE AVOIDED.
Overall, this is a wonderful product.

Love, love, love this product! I have been looking for a vegan DHA ever since my naturopathic physician suggested I take this supplement (the one he recommended came in a gelatin based capsule that I had to squeeze the contents out of which was completely nauseating). DEVA uses high-quality DHA that doesn't leave any aftertaste or negative side effects. The capsules glide down your throat with ease and I feel like this supplement is helpful for my body.

Whether the DHA is doing anything for me I can't say for sure. I do think I finish newspaper puzzles faster because of it, but that's not based on any scientific study. What I like about these capsules is that they look fresh. A previous version of these used a casing that looked like the capsules were quite old and seemed rigid, if not more difficult to swallow. These are not unlike my wife's gelatin based capsules. As a committed vegetarian (who would have thought that I would out myself on Amazon) it was important to not use animal products at all and DEVA's product lives up to that and the quality of the product is an added bonus.

I'm throwing it out. I don't think Carrageenan is worth taking. Maybe eating the actual algae and kelp would be more beneficial. Read more
