Meet Nannocea™

Phytoplankton, the most nutrient-rich organism on the planet,
offers a diverse range of applications.

Nannochloropsis Oceanica

is a species of phytoplankton commonly found in marine environments.
Phytoplankton is at the origin of Life and we consider it the key to our future.
Have you ever wondered where fish get their Omega 3s from? Small fish eat Phytoplankton and larger fish eat these smaller ones.

These microscopic organisms have a dual vital role: they maintain the balance of our planet's ecosystems and they produce a significant portion of the Earth's oxygen.

On top of that, Nannochloropsis Oceanica has a great balance of nutrients.

Q&A

What is the difference between phytoplankton and microalgae?

Phytoplankton specifically refers to the microscopic, photosynthetic organisms that drift in aquatic environments, including microalgae.

Microalgae are microscopic photosynthetic organisms that can be unicellular or multicellular, belonging to various groups such as green algae.

Why should we integrate Phytoplankton into our daily life?

Phytoplankton has been proven beneficial in several ways :

HEALTH BENEFITS :

Rich in Essential Nutrients: Phytoplankton are nutrient-dense, containing essential vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. They provide a well-rounded nutritional profile that supports overall health and well-being.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Many phytoplankton species are a good source of omega-3 fatty acids. These fatty acids play a crucial role in cardiovascular health, brain function, and inflammation control.

Alternative food protein: Phytoplankton is a source of plant-based protein. For individuals looking to reduce their reliance on animal products or seeking alternative protein sources, phytoplankton solutions is a valuable option.

Antioxidants: Phytoplankton contain antioxidants that help combat oxidative stress and protect cells from damage. Antioxidants contribute to overall health by supporting the immune system and reducing the risk of chronic diseases.

Digestive Health: Phytoplankton contain fibers and compounds that promote digestive health. These contribute to a healthy gut microbiome and improve overall digestive function.

ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS :

Sustainability: Incorporating phytoplankton into your diet aligns with sustainable and eco-friendly food choices. Cultivating and harvesting phytoplankton typically have a lower environmental impact compared to raising livestock for animal protein.

Supporting Sustainable Practices: By choosing phytoplankton solutions from reputable and sustainably sourced producers, you contribute to support environmentally friendly and responsible practices in the food and supplement industry.

Is it safe to eat phytoplankton?

Some forms of phytoplankton are consumed by marine life and can be a source of nutrition for certain organisms, however not all phytoplankton are safe for human consumption.

The types of Phytoplankton specifically produced for human consumption are totally safe to eat because the producers need to respect specific rules and controls.

Would you eat fish or oyster if you didn't know where they are coming from? It is the same for Phytoplankton, full transparency and quality control are needed.
