Are you looking for a plant-based, wholefood solution for your Omega-3 and nutritional needs? Kraig Blatch from Phytality talks about his vegan awakening a decade ago, and how that led into bringing Ultana Phytoplankton to market. Omega-3 long-chain fatty acids (EPA & DHA) in a vegan (plant-based) form are naturally only available from micro-algae. Whilst cold pressed oils from flaxseed, hemp seed, or chia seed offer an impressive nutritional profile, their short chain fatty acids which are of the GLA form. These seed based oils do not have the same bio-availability and nutritional properties as the longer chain EPA and DHA oils. This makes ULTANA Phytoplankton one of the only genuine wholefood, natural, sustainable, vegetarian alternatives to fish and krill oil. https://www.phytality.com/ https://www.facebook.com/phytalitynutrition/
