Cardiovascular outcomes and mortality
General adults and cardiovascular risk populations • Systematic review and meta-analysis
Omega-3 supplementation (including algal-derived DHA/EPA) associated with reductions in cardiovascular events; evidence supports algal oil as a functionally equivalent omega-3 source.

DHA bioavailability from algal oil versus fish/salmon
Healthy adults aged 20–65 years • Randomized open-label parallel-group bioequivalence trial
DHA levels in plasma phospholipids increased ~80% and in erythrocytes ~25% with both algal-oil capsules and cooked salmon; the two sources were bioequivalent in raising plasma and red blood cell DHA, supporting algal oil as a non-fish DHA source.
Dose: —
Randomized, n=32; confirms algal DHA bioequivalence to salmon-derived DHA.
