There are also excellent vegan omega-3 dietary supplements that can be very helpful in providing the nutritional insurance that vegans get adequate amounts omega-3s in algal-based vegan capsules. The best quality vegan omega-3 supplement product that I have seen and recommend to my patients (I specialize in plant-based vegan diets for optimal health) is Shaklee Vegan Omega-3 that can be found on the pws.shaklee.com/westnutri/ website on the nutrition supplement page. It is a very well-formulated vegan supplement that is ocean-friendly/sustainably sourced, with no fishy burps or aftertaste. A much better omega-3 supplement that the common fish oil capsules. – Dr. John Westerdahl, PhD, MPH, RDN, FAND, DipACLM
