Bare Biology Vim & Vigour Vegan Omega 3 & Astaxanthin Capsules is a vegan omega-3 supplement made from algae. It provides DHA and EPA, along with astaxanthin, a naturally occurring antioxidant pigment found in certain algae. It’s a fish-free way to add these omega-3 fatty acids to your daily routine.
Vim & Vigour contains algae oil providing DHA and EPA, two long-chain omega-3 fatty acids. The formula also includes astaxanthin, a carotenoid responsible for the pink-red colour found in organisms such as salmon and shellfish.
The omega-3 oil is derived from Schizochytrium algae, while the astaxanthin comes from Haematococcus pluvialis. The capsules are suitable for vegans and are designed for adults who want an alternative to fish oil supplements.
