FAQS
You are farming algae in the desert in massive pools. How is bringing all that water to the desert good for the planet?!
Great question! If we were bringing fresh water from another region to the desert, you would be right to worry…but at iwi, we are doing something radically sustainable with our farms.
Both of our farm locations were chosen because they are unfarmable desert land located over natural saltwater aquifers. This water is too high in salt and minerals to use for any other purpose, but guess what it’s perfect for? Algae!
By utilizing resources like desert land and naturally salty water that were previously unused, and by keeping fishing boats and nets out of the ocean, iwi delivers the most sustainable omega-3 supplements on the market.
Why did you make a vegan alternative to krill oil?
We know--krill don’t seem especially cuddly or loveable, but once you find out how important they are, you will love them as much as we do and want to protect them!
People started taking krill oil because it provides Omega-3 fatty acids in a form that’s even more absorbable than fish oil. Sounds good so far, right? But krill are important for the environment in some important ways. So important, in fact, that some major natural food stores refuse to sell krill oil because of the environmental impact of removing krill from the oceans.
Krill naturally capture 12 billion tons of carbon from the air each year--that’s the equivalent of taking 35 million cars off the road annually! Experts admit that we don’t understand the long-term effects of taking so many krill out of the ocean each year for human use.
What’s more, krill are a keystone species of the ocean. They are the main source of food for whales, dolphins, penguins, and sea birds. At iwi, we are so thrilled to offer Vegikrill, a product that offers you the highest absorption Omega-3 from the same place krill and fish get their Omega-3: from algae! Get the nourishment your body needs and leave krill where they need to be: in the ocean.
How do you keep your farms from growing toxic algae
Due to the desert-region locations of our farms & our water conditions, it is extremely unlikely that those species could/would grow.
We grow a microscopic algae strain called Nannochloropsis, which requires unique conditions to grow at scale. We use different grades of salinity and other natural solutions which prevent any other species from growing. We also monitor our ponds daily to ensure there is no evidence of the growth of other species.
And lastly, we analyze the biomass, oil, and finished product in third party labs to make sure we always produce a safe and top quality product! Let us know if you have any further questions
Animal sourced Omega-3s are "better for you" than plant sourced Omega-3s
Fish and krill actually get their Omega-3’s from algae - algae is the original source. We have had clinical studies performed by independent organizations that prove our algae-based Omega-3s have at least 2x more absorption than that from fish oil and 65% more than that from krill oil. The reason for this: we offer the only omega-3 with phospholipids and glycolipids (polar lipids), which makes our Omega-3 very soluble in water, and thus facilitates high absorption by the human body. Said studies are published and available.
