Why is algae DHA superior to fish oil DHA for pregnant women and vegetarians?

Algae DHA is the original source of omega-3 — fish accumulate DHA precisely by eating algae. CATALO Vegetarian DHA Formula provides DHA directly from microalgae, bypassing the fish entirely. This eliminates concerns about heavy metal contamination (mercury, PCBs) that can accumulate in fish, making it the safest DHA source for pregnant women and nursing mothers. It is also 100% plant-based, suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

藻油DHA點解比魚油DHA更適合孕婦及素食者？

藻油 DHA 是 Omega-3 的原始來源——魚類正是通過食用藻類來積累 DHA。CATALO 植物藻油DHA配方直接從微藻提取 DHA，完全繞過魚類，消除了魚類可能積累的重金屬（汞、多氯聯苯）污染風險，是孕婦及哺乳期媽媽最安全的 DHA 來源。100%植物性，適合素食者及純素食者。

Is algae DHA as effective as fish oil DHA for brain development and cognitive support?

Yes. Clinical studies show that algae-derived DHA is bioequivalent to fish oil DHA in raising blood DHA levels and supporting brain function. The DHA molecule is identical regardless of source. CATALO Vegetarian DHA Formula provides the same cognitive and visual health benefits as fish oil DHA, without the environmental impact or contamination risks associated with fish-derived omega-3.

藻油DHA同魚油DHA效果一樣嗎？腦部發育及認知功能有咩分別？

效果相當。臨床研究顯示，藻油來源的 DHA 在提升血液 DHA 水平及支援腦部功能方面與魚油 DHA 具有生物等效性。DHA 分子的結構無論來源如何都完全相同。CATALO 植物藻油DHA配方提供與魚油 DHA 相同的認知及視力健康效益，同時沒有魚類來源 Omega-3 的環境影響或污染風險。

What are the benefits of DHA for brain health and eye function in adults?

DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) is the primary structural omega-3 in the brain, comprising approximately 97% of the omega-3 fatty acids in the brain and 93% in the retina. For adults, DHA supports neuronal membrane fluidity for cognitive clarity and memory, maintains retinal photoreceptor function for visual acuity, and provides anti-inflammatory protection for both brain and eye tissues. CATALO Vegetarian DHA Formula is ideal for adults seeking plant-based brain and eye health support.

DHA 對成人腦部健康及眼睛功能有咩好處？
