GENERAL

Many studies have shown that people with higher (vs. lower) omega-3 index levels are at decreased risk for a variety of diseases. These include heart disease, stroke, dementia, and depression to name a few. These people even live longer than those with lower levels. Raising your omega-3 index and keeping it up should help reduce your risk these conditions. Omega-3 fatty acids are found primarily in fish, especially “oily” fish such as those near the top in the accompanying table. The two most important omega-3 fatty acids are EPA and DHA. It should be noted that omega-3 fatty acids from flaxseed oil (alpha-linolenic acid, or ALA) will have little to no effect on your Omega-3 Index. Therefore, ALA is not an effective substitute for EPA and DHA. To make sure your Omega-3 Index remains in the target range you should re-check it every six months.

FATTY ACID BENEFITS (EPA, DHA, GLA)

• Lowers LDL and increases HDL cholesterol; decreases blood clotting time
• Anti-arrhythmic, anti-inflammatory effect that benefits heart tissue
• Structural in brain and retinal tissue; improves learning and memory
• Critical in fetal and infant development
• Improves hyperactivity in children and depression in adults
• Treatment for autoimmune disorders, kidney disease, PMS, RA, MS
• Improves skin integrity

INCLUDED IN THE TEST REPORT

RECOMMENDATIONS

• Flax seed oil as source of ALA from which EPA and DHA are synthesized
• Fish oil or cod liver oil as direct sources of EPA and DHA
• Evening primrose oil, borage oil or black current oil as source of GLA if insufficiently synthesized
• Hemp oil as source of both ALA and GLA
