4.0 out of 5 stars Great plant-based omega-3 supplement, April 20, 2009

I found these while looking for a non-fish omega-3 DHA supplement. I believe this is the same DHA you'll find in any Martek or Life's DHA product, and that they all are from the same company.

The benefits of supplementing a diet with fish oil come from the omega-3 fatty acid, DHA. Traditional fish oil capsules contain less than 100 mg of DHA per 1 gram of oil. This product contains 200 mg of DHA per capsule from a vegetarian plant-based source, algae.

I take 2 capsules in the morning. They're small and round, so they go down without a problem. If not eaten with food, a hint of seaweed can be tasted after several minutes.

These are better than fish capsules if you're a vegetarian, but (as with almost all softgels) the capsules are made from gelatin (a non-veg ingredient).

I recommend these, they're a little pricey, but a bottle will last 2 months when taking 2 capsules per day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Been using DHA for 10 years now, March 29, 2010

In my mid to late 40s I started having memory loss... like going to another room to get something and completely forgetting what it was. I figured it was a hopeless aging thing that I would have to accept as part of getting hold and losing my female hormones. Then I learned about Neuromins (Martak Labs) DHA derived from algae and started taking it every day. In a short time my eyes were able to tolerate bright sunlight for the first time in my life. Then I noticed I no longer forgot things anymore. This stuff is amazing - it is now 10 years later and I amaze myself with how much I can remember, I often times do not even bother to write lists sometimes and can still remember. I've had episodes were I wanted to remember something and 20 - 30 minutes later the answer would pop into my brain. I've had episodes were I was driving by a store thinking of something totally unrelated and my brain (memory) gave me a pop-up as I was getting near the store to turn in a buy some item I thought about 4 days earlier. DHA keeps your brain's memory file folder active and well connected and organized and does these amazing information searches if you let it. I do not smoke, drink alcohol and avoid sugars, carbs and processed foods.

DHA from algae was recommended by Dr. Michael Roizen from the Cleveland Clinic - co-author of the "You ..." health book series. He and his colleague said it was great for many purposes, especially brain power and mental/brain health. I have been taking 600 mgs/day for about 5 months (1 capsule, 3 x/day). I have found that my mind is clearer, even when tired; and my memory is better, even when tired. Source Naturals is one of the few companies which make DHA from algae and I am quite pleased with it. Source Naturals has always been rated highly for content quality control; from various nutritionists and naturapaths whom I have consulted; so I trust this brand.
