IQI offers traceable, sustainable, high-quality algal omega-3 products, with a higher content of EPA and DHA than salmon or fish oils. Health benefits of these essential long-chain omega-3 fatty acids include increased absorption of vitamins and minerals, skin and coat support, growth and development support for puppies and kittens, and anti-inflammatory properties.
