How do you know that Opti3 is free from environmental toxins?

Opti3 contains algae oil cultivated in stainless steel tanks under controlled conditions, which allows Vegetology to precisely monitor the composition, and the oil is not at risk of environmental toxins as is the case with, for example, fish oil. To sell these products within the EU, Vegetology must meet contamination criteria specified by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Each batch must be tested and shown to meet this criterion.

Does Opti3 contain iodine?

Opti3 does not contain any nutritionally significant amount of iodine because it is not sourced from the sea like fish oil, but is cultivated in stainless steel tanks so the composition is very carefully controlled. It can only be described as "trace" amounts of iodine.

How is the oil extracted from the algae?

Opti3 is cultivated under controlled conditions in stainless steel tanks. When the algae cells are mature, they break open through an enzymatic process to release the oil, which is then separated from the water and cell biomass. Vegetology does not use solvents or chemicals in the process; it is physical separation. Antioxidants are added to protect the oil, but these are also natural.

Can I give Opti3 to my dog?

It is very common to give Opti3 to dogs. Half a teaspoon (2.5 ml) per day for small dogs and a full teaspoon (5 ml) for larger dogs. For capsules, 1 per day for small dogs, 2 per day for large dogs.
