Pure Plant-Source GreenOMEGA 3
GreenOMEGA 3 is ideal for vegans and vegetarians who want an Omega 3 supplement with all of the benefits of fish oil, but without the fish and the related sustainability issue of using a fish source.
The Vegan alternative to Fish Oil
Fish oil offers a number of proven benefits to health, but fish oil does not suit Vegetarian and Vegans and those who care about the world’s fish population being managed for long term sustainability.
GreenOMEGA 3 satisfies those who want all the DHA and EPA essential fatty acid benefits, but from a vegetarian source.
While most people know fish are a rich source of Omega 3 (DHA and EPA), many don't know that the fish actually get these essential fatty acids from the marine microalgae they eat in their natural environment.
So GreenOMEGA 3 has by-passed the fish and gone straight to the source to get these essential Omega 3 fatty acids DHA and EPA from the very same organic marine microalgae (Schizochytrium sp.) the fish get them from.
The benefits of a diet rich in Omega 3 (DHA and EPA) are well known to include heart, brain and eye health.
Help save our precious Oceans...
Over 700,000 tonnes* of fish are now taken annually from our oceans for fish oil with over 21%* of that going into fish oil supplements. If this continues, experts say we will soon lose many fish species and marine ecosystems in just one generation. That's bad news for the marine environment, but now there is some good news...
We don't need to kill fish for Omega 3 essential fatty acids!
Omega 3 fatty acids DHA and EPA are essential for humans – this means our bodies don't make them – we have to get them from the food we eat. We can get Omega3 from eating fish but not easily in the quantities we need, hence the need for fish oil supplements.
But now there is no need to harvest the fish for their oil because we can get our DHA and EPA from the same marine microalgae the fish do.
GreenOMEGA 3 from renewable algal source is a vegan alternative to fish oil for essential DHA and EPA. Algal derived oils are 100% clean, free from heavy metal like mercury and arsenic and do not contribute to the destruction of our ravaged oceans.
Choose GreenOMEGA 3 as your daily source of DHA and EPA... and save the fish!

How and where is it grown
Located in Kingstree, South Carolina USA, the green marine microalgae (Schizochytrium sp.) is sustainably cultivated in technologically-advanced "Enclosed-System" phyto-bioreactors.
This method of environmentally-controlled cultivation produces a very pure, pollution-free microalgae that is never exposed to unclean air or water.
The water used in the marine microalgae phyto-bioreactors is purified using Reverse Osmosis Filtration Systems, so there are no chemicals, heavy metals or other environmental pollutants in the water.
The marine microalgae starts its life-cycle in an algal test tube in the laboratory, then gets transferred into the phyto-bioreactor to grow and fully develop the rich nutrient profile of Omega 3's.
Harvesting of the marine microalgae 'crop' occurs only when it has reached its peak potency.
Then the rich Omega 3 essential fatty acids are extracted from the marine microalgae using a proprietary method that utilises a chemical-free process, and is then filtered by way of 'Chill-Filtration' to the produce a potent, pure DHA and EPA rich oil.
Of course, it does not end there - a genuine vegan product like Pure Plant-Source GreenOMEGA 3 can only be delivered in a 100% animal-free vegetable capsule that can effectively deliver the rich DHA and EPA essential fatty acids.
About the Company
We are a company committed to providing you with the World’s best quality superfoods. For us, the term ‘World’s Best’ refers not only to the quality, purity and potency of our products but also their origin & source, where & how we package them, our full disclosure values and the ethics we uphold in the marketing of our products.
We’ve been in the superfood business for over 25 years, beginning in 1995 with the Australian launch of the renowned Hawaiian Pacific Spirulina products. As the World has become more aware of the great benefits of superfoods and the crucial importance of environmentally sustainable packaging and ethical sourcing, we have grown our business by providing products of outstanding quality and adhering to our values. These values are reflected in our core ideals and company policies that include:
- LOCTEC™ Nutrient Protection Technology packaging
- Licensed Australian GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) production and packaging
- Full disclosure of the origin of our superfoods
- 100% Australian owned & operated
- Environmental awareness & care
- 100% recyclable glass and metal packaging
LOCTEC™ packaging
LOCTEC™ Nutrient Protection Technology means our nutrient-rich superfoods are exclusively packed in glass bottles with metal caps and our bulk products in 100% metal eCANS (no plastic lining, no BPA) that stops oxygen and moisture from entering. This protects the valuable nutrients in our superfoods and greatly reduces nutrient-loss that can be caused by oxygen & moisture.
We use 100% recyclable glass and metal packaging that upholds the integrity of nutrients far better than ‘HDPE plastic bottles’ and ‘composite cans’ made from a blend of card-boards, adhesives and plastic that are NOT recyclable. This is also a commitment to the Earth and our precious environment and ecology.
Over use of plastic is a massive problem that our world is facing and at GREEN NUTRITIONALS we’re serious about helping protect the Planet in any way we can.
Product origin and sourcing
Some of the world’s most prolific producers of superfoods are countries where pollution is a significant issue and where there is little or no regulation around how this impacts the quality and purity of the foods they grow. In regions where the environment is full of pollutants, the foods grown in these conditions can be contaminated with heavy metals and have lowered nutritional values.
At GREEN NUTRITIONALS we buy only from the very best growers in non-polluted regions, then fully disclose who these growers are and why we believe their superfoods are the best. We know our suppliers and we know where the products that we pass onto our valued customers have come from. This is about product quality. It’s also about ethical sourcing and knowing the eco-journey of each product that we sell.
Nutrients vs Ingredients
Today, people are becoming much more educated than ever before about the importance of checking what’s in the food products they buy.
At GREEN NUTRITIONALS we heartily endorse this approach to becoming an informed and empowered consumer.
One thing we can tell you that isn’t always apparent from a list of INGREDIENTS on a product label, is the crucial distinction between what NUTRIENTS these ingredients actually contain.
Many brands list a whole lot of ‘ingredients’ on their superfood packaging, but no ‘nutrient values’. What they fail to make clear is that many of these ingredients are either present in such small amounts they offer no nutritional value OR that the ingredients are sourced from countries that may be polluted – also compromising the nutritional value.
We focus 100% on the nutritional content so you can be sure every one of our superfood products will deliver the valuable nutrients you are paying for.
Ethical
Full transparency and 100% disclosure of the origin & quality of our superfoods has been the hallmark of our brand for over 25 years.
We choose only the best quality superfoods from around the World, proudly tell you where they are grown, who grows them and why they are the best – we never buy superfoods from countries or regions that have compromised environments and all our superfoods are tested to ensure the highest purity and potency.
Ethics is knowing the difference between what you have a right to do and what is right to do.
Our ethics go well beyond a 100% unconditional guarantee – doing the right thing by our highly nutritious superfoods, our precious environment and our valued customers is all important to us and we will never compromise our standards.
We never take our customer’s trust for granted … ever!
For example, we choose not to pack our superfoods in cheap, toxic, non-recyclable plastic bottles, composite cans (cardboard with plastic and glue added) or plastic pouches because they do not protect the oxygen-sensitive nutrients and are damaging to the environment – we only pack in 100% recyclable glass and metal containers that are oxygen-proof to keep your superfoods fresh and potent.
There’s nothing pure, organic or natural about plastic and we believe it should not be used to store superfoods.
Ethical behaviour is doing the right thing – even when doing the wrong thing is legal.
Honest
We always tell our customers the truth so they can be confident our product labeling, packaging and marketing is accurate, honest and complete. For example, we refuse to omit information that is important to you, or use any of the latest fad words & phrases that can often mislead consumers as to the origin, potency & purity of our superfoods.
Wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it – right is right even when no-one is doing it.
Knowing the truth is what it’s all about and we actively encourage our customers to do ask the tough questions of all the food brands they buy.
When it comes to helping you determine what foods best strengthen your health & wellbeing, it’s important that you get full disclosure and honest information.
After all, it’s your health and you really do deserve the best!
The only people who get upset when you speak the truth are those who are living a lie – keep speaking the truth.
Real
Keeping it real is the only way we can actually deliver the nutrients you are paying for in our superfoods. We never take the easy way out.
Keeping it REAL is a full time job.
When we say we have the World’s Best Superfoods it’s not just a throw-away tagline, we can actually back it up … here’s just a few examples of how we keep it real for our customers;
- Full independent NUTRITIONAL ANALYSES … so you know what you’re buying
- Full disclosure of Country of Origin for ALL ingredients used in our products
- We DO NOT buy superfoods or ingredients from environmentally compromised countries or regions.
- We DO NOT use plastic packaging or composite cans (cardboard with plastic & glue added)
- We pack our products in Australia under GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) licence.
- We use LOCTEC ™ Nutrient Protection Technology so that you get the nutrients you are paying for.
- We DO NOT sell blends with tiny amounts of dozens of ingredients.
We deliver nutrients, not just ingredients … there is a big difference!
