DHA from Algae Better than that from Fish 33
According to Dr Barbara Levine, associate professor of nutrition in medicine at Weill Medical College of Cornell University, ?the purest source of DHA is not the fish itself, but rather what fish consume: the ocean?s vegetarian plant algae. Taking DHA supplements produced from marine algae is therefore a safe way for pregnant women to boost their fatty acid stores.?Martek Biosciences from the US is the only company in the world that has managed to produce DHA from patented strains of algae grown in large-scale fermentation tanks located away from the sea using filtered water ? under tightly controlled GMP manufacturing conditions.
Farmed algae located away from the sea means that there is no exposure to oceanic contaminants. DHA from algae source is also free from other long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, like EPA, that is found naturally in fish oil.
Apparently, this is the reason why Martek?s DHA is found in more than 99% of DHA-enriched infant formulas in the US. Interesting!

"The Source-Omega company announced today their products are available to the world with an eye on India. The company is providing their US patent pending ?metabolic ratio? of DHA and EPA omega-3 products from algae oil." - http://bit.ly/9WsBou
In india some people are really trying to boost up the production in open pond cultivation both EPA &DHA;.i hope that the product will reach soon in the world market soon.
This sounds like a good business potential
Greetings Algologist
Interesting point ? I have been doing allot of work on algae to HVP and Fish, bi-valves and other species, accumulate not create EFA- so why don?t we culture and or harvest micro algae and introduce this into food sources. I have much better profiles in my wild cultured algae than any fish or bivalves. And believe or not ? cultured mono species algae have some of the lowest EFA in the algae kingdom. They are not grown because of their profile ? they are grown be cause they easy to grow and to certain companies ? it is always nice to have control of the seed !!!!!so then you control the industry !!~!
Pardon Me, what are EFAs. Thanks
