Algae Oil – 40% DHA is a vegan-friendly alternative to animal-derived sources of Omega-3 essential fatty acids, extracted from microalgae scientifically known as Schizochytrium sp. The material has a bright yellow to orange appearance with a characteristic aroma and flavor profile, varying in viscosity depending on the temperature in which its stored in. High DHA algae oil has a similar viscosity as vegetable oils at 95 degrees F (35 degrees C) or higher. When algae oil is stored at cooler temperatures (86 degrees F or 30 degrees C and lower), the viscosity of the material will increase due to naturally occurring saturated fatty acids. The presence of these solids will increase as the temperature decreases, having a direct impact on the overall viscosity of algae oil.
Having a minimum of 40% DHA content, docosahexaenoic acid, this oil has been growing in popularity over the years throughout the nutraceutical industry, allowing a plant-based supplement option of omega-3 fatty acids essential for the human body and overall health. Additionally, bulk algae oil, often referred to as algal, is gaining traction in the personal-care and cosmetic realm as further research reveals potential benefits when applied directly to the skin such as deep moisturization, anti-aging properties, unclogging of the pores, and improving discoloration.

Refined, bleached (non-chemical process), deodorized. An "RBDW" product goes through a winterization ("W") process in addition to the RBD process.
Deodorized materials go through a non-chemical, high-vacuum process to reduce their natural aroma. While the aroma is not removed fully, a deodorized product’s aroma is less potent than the natural or unrefined variety.
