Brand IP Statement(s) re: (c), (TM), (SM)

Introducing Ovega-3, an all-vegetarian DHA + EPA Omega-3 supplement from a safe and natural plant source (algae); not fish. With 500mg of total omega-3s, Ovega-3 provides the same heart healthy benefits of traditional fish oil but without the unpleasant fishy aftertaste associated with some fish oils.* Most people think that fish are the original source of DHA and EPA, but it's really the algae they eat that naturally contain these important omega-3s. Ovega-3 has gone directly to the source and bypassed the fish. You can be sure that Ovega-3 is 100% free of PCBs and mercury because it is sourced from plants that are grown outside of the ocean. As one of the highest quality omega-3 supplements available, Ovega-3 is also from a sustainable source and does not deplete the ocean’s supply of fish.
