Evidence
2 records
DHA bioavailability from algal oil versus fish/salmon
Healthy adults aged 20–65 yearsRandomized open-label parallel-group bioequivalence trial
PUBMEDModerate

DHA levels in plasma phospholipids increased ~80% & in erythrocytes ~25% with both algal-oil capsules & cooked salmon; the two sources were bioequivalent in raising plasma & 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.
Cardiovascular outcomes & mortality
General adults and cardiovascular risk populationsSystematic review and meta-analysis
PUBMEDModerate

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.
