There is a small amount of sunflower oil in the capsule (3%) and this is necessary for processing the algae oil.
The sunflower oil Testa uses has a high oleic content (84%) from special hybrids of sunflowers. Therefore, linoleic acid content is much lower (6-9%) than regular sunflower oil. Per capsule we have 28 mg Omega-6 and 450 mg Omega-3, or a ratio of 1: 16. In krill oil, it is 1:7, with sardine oil 1:2.2, farmed salmon 1:5 and with anjovis oil 1:10.
