The creation of BHK’s 70% Omega-3 Algae Oil was inspired by Guan Deng-Yuan, founder of the vegan brand “Deli Su” and a good friend of the BHK’s founder. At the time, Guan asked, “If vegetarians can’t have fish oil, are there other options?” This question deeply moved the BHK’s development team.
In fact, BHK’s already has many health supplements featuring vegan formulations, and the BHK’s development team has always been committed to providing more vegan-friendly nutritional options. Early on, due to two major technical bottlenecks—the insufficient purity of the Algae Oil (as rTG) ingredient and the scarcity of vegan softgel manufacturers—the BHK’s development team delayed launching a vegan Omega-3 product. It was not until the recent breakthrough in high-concentration extraction technology and the discovery of a specialized production line free from animal cross-contamination that BHK’s 70% Omega-3 Algae Oil was officially launched.
As a BHK’s product development dietitian, I will use the following article to share the development motivation and design philosophy behind BHK’s 70% Omega-3 Algae Oil, taking you on a deep dive into this pure vegan supplement tailored specifically for our vegetarian friends.
1. Development Concept: Original Intention and Perseverance
Market Overview
Common Challenges for Consumers
Vegetarian consumers often face severely limited choices when selecting an Omega-3 nutritional supplement. Most high-concentration Omega-3 sources on the market come from animal-based fish oil, while existing plant-based Omega-3 products (such as flaxseed oil) have extremely low conversion rates, completely failing to meet the actual wellness needs of vegan consumers for high-concentration EPA and DHA.
Common Hidden Issues in Market Products
In addition, many consumers tend to overlook the capsule shell ingredients when purchasing vegan health supplements. Some products on the market claim to have vegan contents but are encapsulated in animal-derived gelatin, causing vegetarian consumers to accidentally break their dietary rules. This is also one of the most frequent pain points our frontline customer service hears from vegetarian consumers.
Common Misconceptions
During frontline nutritional education, the BHK’s development team dietitians found that many people have the misconception that “eating more nuts and vegetable oils is enough to replenish the body’s needed Omega-3.” In fact, the efficiency of converting plant-sourced ALA into EPA and DHA in the human body is extremely low. Relying solely on a daily diet makes it very difficult to reach the standard for maintaining an optimal state.
Another common misconception is that “the EPA and DHA concentration of Algae Oil (as rTG) must be lower than fish oil.” In the past, it was indeed difficult to increase the concentration of Algae Oil (as rTG), but with the advancement of modern patented extraction technologies, high-quality, premium Algae Oil (as rTG) can now achieve extremely high purity and concentration, offering wellness benefits that even surpass ordinary low-grade fish oils on the market.
Motivation for Development
The main reason the BHK’s development team felt existing vegan Omega-3 products on the market were not good enough was that the proportion of DHA and EPA in early Algae Oil (as rTG) was not yet stable, and the extraction process was immature, resulting in insufficient ingredient purity. At the same time, there were very few manufacturers in Taiwan capable of producing “vegan softgels,” making it difficult for production lines to completely avoid animal ingredient cross-contamination.
To respond to the expectations of the vast vegetarian community, the BHK’s research and development team fully committed to finding a vegan solution that could perfectly replace fish oil. Recently, the BHK’s development team finally found an excellent facility specializing in vegan health supplements. After confirming that their production line is absolutely pure and safe, thoroughly avoiding any animal ingredient cross-contamination, they officially launched the development project for BHK’s 70% Omega-3 Algae Oil.
2. Product Positioning and Design Philosophy
Suitable For
BHK’s 70% Omega-3 Algae Oil is specifically designed for pure vegans who focus on daily wellness, office workers who frequently eat out and have unbalanced diets, and professionals who need to maintain high levels of focus.

Core Philosophy
The design philosophy behind BHK’s 70% Omega-3 Algae Oil is “pure and uncontaminated, highly efficient absorption.” The BHK’s development team emphasizes overall nutritional supplementation and physiological function support, firmly refusing to compromise by using low-cost animal gelatin or low-concentration ingredients. Through an all-plant-sourced, premium Algae Oil (as rTG) formulation, BHK’s 70% Omega-3 Algae Oil is not only environmentally friendly but also provides the body with the most direct, highly absorbable, and pure nutritional support.

6. Dosage Form and Formulation Design
When designing the dosage form for BHK’s 70% Omega-3 Algae Oil, the BHK’s development team went through countless tests and screenings. Because high-concentration Algae Oil (as rTG) oxidizes easily upon contact with air, the BHK’s development team insisted on using a softgel dosage form with excellent sealing to maximally preserve the activity of the Omega-3.
More importantly, to fulfill their commitment to vegetarians, the BHK’s development team invested significant effort into finding a manufacturer with a dedicated vegan production line. They ultimately succeeded in creating a 100% animal-free vegan softgel shell with no concerns about cross-contamination. This professional dosage form design not only fully encapsulates the precious oils, prevents oxidation, and blocks odors, but it also significantly reduces unnecessary artificial additives and excipients, ensuring that every capsule of BHK’s 70% Omega-3 Algae Oil is a pure nutritional essence.
