Sustainable sources of omega-3 LC-PUFAs. Microalgae and other microorganisms can serve as a primary source of VLC-PUFAs. The microalgae can be utilized directly or indirectly in the form of algal oil or tablets, respectively. This will also serve as an efficient alternate to the fish (save the fish from extinction) and transgenic plants (quite laborious and expensive to produce).
