    DHA is a kind of polyunsaturated fatty acid which is very important to human body It can enhance memory and thinking, improve intelligence and so on Population epidemiological study found that people with high DHA content have strong psychological endurance and high intelligence development index Dr Ruben, technical director of matek, pointed out that due to the widespread use of fish oil in the food industry at present, many people have a big misunderstanding about the source of DHA, and most people believe that DHA, a brain protecting element, comes from fish But in fact, it's not the case It's said that the real source of DHA is microalgae in the sea It's only because fish eat this kind of algae and accumulate it in the body The DHA content of algal oil is high in 2010 Shanghai World Expo A high value-added edible oil product with the function of "protecting the brain" has attracted the attention of many visitors That is the only grain and oil product designated by Shanghai World Expo Fulinmen specially made for the World Expo Fulinmen DHA grain blended oil This new edible oil product looks like ordinary edible oil, but it has a high technology content Its high-quality algal oil DHA has the function of brain care What are the differences between algae oil and fish oil in DHA content and stability? According to reports, the DHA algal oil in Fulinmen brain care blend oil has an inherent advantage over fish oil products without any authoritative scientific and patent technology support in the market at present In terms of DHA content, the content of DHA in algal oil is high, which can reach more than 35% Moreover, in preservation and high-temperature cooking, it has strong stability and no loss of DHA components, so it is very suitable for edible oil products Algae oil does not contain EPA It is understood that fish oil contains EPA substances besides DHA What effects does this substance have on human body? Experts said that algal oil does not contain EPA substances, fish oil products are limited by their own raw materials, and inevitably contain companion EPA EPA does not have the effect of improving intelligence, especially for children's development, EPA cannot provide the effect of protecting brain development Therefore, DHA without EPA is suitable for all people Fish oil products have a strong fishy smell, which is why many people don't like to eat fish oil But the algal oil DHA product does not have the fishy smell The dishes cooked with the algal oil DHA blend oil can keep the original taste of the ingredients Algal oil is safer and healthier From the perspective of food safety, algal oil DHA is extracted directly from seaweed After closed fermentation, there is no marine pollution According to media reports, 10 kinds of fish oil tested contain different proportions of PCBs After scientific identification, PCBs are harmful to human body After entering human body, PCBs can cause cancer, disorder of reproductive system and damage of nervous system However, up to now, scientists have not made safety standards for the proportion of PCBs in fish oil In today's fish oil market is uneven, the products of good fish oil manufacturers are absolutely trustworthy, but the overall threshold is not high, many small factories' fake and inferior products run rampant, damaging their overall image And there is no difference between the competitive mode and the popular price, resulting in many manufacturers using fish scraps for production, unable to ensure the quality and safety, making many consumers issue a "caution!"! Fish oil! " The cry In order to meet the needs of sustainable development and leave a green future for future generations, food enterprises should have a forward-looking vision and choose the more environmentally friendly, safer and healthier algal oil DHA as the raw material for food processing.
