Brain Health Bundle

Bacopa monnieri or ‘Brahmi’ as it's often known, is a herb used by traditional practitioners for thousands of years. Known to have many antioxidant properties, BacoMind®, which is the patented and most clinically trialled form of Bacopa monnieri, enhances our memory recall, memory retention, our speed of memory and cognitive performance, and helps our mind manage stress.

Brain Fuel® can be taken by older teenagers and students assuming they're of average size and weight. Brain Fuel® can be taken to support focus, concentration and memory performance, particularly in the run-up to exams, during revision and exams themselves. Brain Fuel® can be taken at a lower dosage if appropriate, such as one capsule every other day, rather than one capsule each day.

If you are under medical supervision or taking any prescribed medication, you should consult with your medical professional or GP before taking supplements.

Brain Fuel® is best taken in the morning after waking up. This is because of its energy-supporting abilities. While you should soon feel more alert with more focus and energy, even after a day or two depending on your current diet and lifestyle, the real benefits of Brain Fuel® are when you take it for three months and beyond.

Based on dietary choices, most people should be taking an Omega 3 supplement, given how important Omega 3 is to our brain, heart and vision health, and much more.

There are a number of important considerations when choosing an omega 3 supplement, and one of them is the DHA and EPA content. EPA ('Eicosapentaenoic acid') and DHA ('Docosahexaenoic acid') are the all-important long-chain Omega 3 fatty acids.

There should be a 2:1 ratio of DHA:EPA in an Omega 3 supplement. For example, if it contains 100mg DHA, it should have at least 50mg EPA. Our best-selling vegan Omega 3 is sustainably sourced from algae, without damaging marine ecosystems, and contains 1,000mg of Omega Algae Oil, which provides 300mg DHA and 150mg EPA.

Omega 3 is an essential fatty acid and the most common animal sources are oily fish such as mackerel, salmon and trout. All fish get their Omega 3 from the algae they eat in the oceans, so hundreds of millions - if not billions - of fish are killed each year around the world for animal-based Omega 3 supplements.

Our Vegan Omega 3 is derived directly from algae, which is not only good for you, it doesn't have a fishy smell or turn rancid as fish-derived Omega 3 can do. And because our vegan Omega 3 spares hundreds of millions of fish being killed, it is better for the environment. Better me. Better planet.

Omega 3 fats are particularly beneficial for heart health, brain function and eye health. Learn more in 'What is Omega 3 and what is it good for?'.

Our Vegan Omega 3 is made up of 1000mg algae oil which provides 550mg of Omega 3, 300mg DHA and 150mg EPA per serving.  This supports your brain, heart and eye health. Free of toxins and pollutants found in fish oil, and including Vitamin E, our high strength Vegan Omega 3 is ethically and sustainably sourced to support your optimal health every day.

Our Vegan Omega 3 is made up of 1000mg algae oil which provides 550mg of Omega 3, 300mg EPA and 150mg DHA per serving. The official recommendation for Omega 3 daily consumption is 250mg per day of combined EPA and DHA.  However, algae oil has a higher DHA content which is why our supplement has 300mg DHA and 150mg EPA. 

A registered nutritional therapist may prescribe a higher dose of Omega 3 as a therapeutic dose short term but it is never wise to increase the dosage of any supplements without consulting a doctor.

Yes! Omega 3 fatty acids play a big role in a baby’s brain development, which is made up of nearly 60% fat, specifically DHA. DRV+ (Formerly DR.VEGAN®) Vegan Omega 3 contains the optimal dose of DHA (300mg) and EPA (150mg). As DRV+ Vegan Omega 3 is sourced from algae, instead of fish, it doesn't contain toxic metals that fish oils may contain. You can find the DRV+ Vegan Omega 3 in our Comprehensive Pregnancy Bundle.
