Characteristic
Algae oil is an oil that is extracted from marine algae. It is usually light yellow in color like other vegetable oils and has a neutral flavor. Like fish oil, algae oil is a major natural source of omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. However, algae oil shows certain advantages compared to fish oil such as consistency of composition, sensory properties, and ease of production. Currently, algae oil is increasingly being used in health supplements and concentrated foods.
Nutritional components
Algae oil is rich in certain omega-3 fatty acids, including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
- EPA is an essential unsaturated fatty acid that provides a variety of physiological functions. It plays an important role in regulating inflammation and immunity in human body.
- DHA is a major structural lipid in the brain, skin and retina of the eye and is a key component of the heart. It is an essential nutrient for maintaining brain health and preventing certain diseases.
Health benefits
Algae oil is a green and healthy oil that has many health benefits. Firstly, it helps to regulate the heartbeat and lower blood pressure, thus promoting cardiovascular health. Secondly, it can improve the retina and maintain eye health with the help of DHA. In addition, it can be used for other purposes such as reducing inflammation, enhancing thinking skills and memory, and improving mood.
