Getting Dha From Algae Oil

DHA is a long-chain omega-3 fatty acid concentrated in the brain and eyes, and it is the omega-3 question that matters most on a fully plant-based diet. Fish are the familiar source, but fish do not make DHA — they accumulate it from algae. That fact is the vegan answer: algae oil supplements provide the identical molecule directly, skipping the fish, and pairing one with daily ALA-rich foods covers the omega-3 picture.
