Omega-3s can help to lower triglycerides, reduce blood pressure, and decrease the risk of heart disease and stroke.<br \/>\nOmega-6 fatty acids are found in vegetable oils and are needed in smaller amounts for growth and development. Omega-9 fatty acids are found in olive oil and contribute to heart health and help reduce inflammation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why test the Omega ratio?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Omega Ratio test reveals potential imbalances or deficiencies in the Omega fatty acid profile.<br \/>\nIf the balance is compromised, particularly between the Omega-3 and Omega-6 ratio, this can contribute to a range of health problems such as heart conditions, cancer risks,<br \/>\ninflammation, autoimmune disorders, neurological conditions, and even skin problems such as eczema and hair loss. The test is a perfect way to assess Omega fatty acid ratios and, if required, modify your diet or supplements to improve heart health and manage inflammation. If you are already taking Omega-3 supplements or have made dietary changes, the test helps to monitor their impact on your fatty acid balance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Omega Ratio test measures.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our Omega Ratio test offers a comprehensive analysis of all essential fatty acids present in the blood and calculates key Omega fatty acid ratios. This detailed approach provides a deep understanding of an individual's Omega profile and potential health implications. The test analyses the levels of the different omega fatty acids found in the blood. The primary focus is on the balance between Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, as this ratio influences inflammation levels and overall health.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does our test work?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It's incredible how much information a single drop of blood can reveal about your fatty acid profile. Accurately measuring omega fatty acid levels requires specialised lab expertise and techniques. Our test uses tried-and-tested, dependable methods like Gas Chromatography with Flame Ionisation Detection (GC-FID) to ensure superior reliability, reproducibility, identification, and accuracy. Our meticulous approach, from accurate handling to superior precision, guarantees results you can confidently use to guide your health choices.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bloodo\u2122 Omega Ratio Test Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Parameter<\/strong> | <strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Principle of the method<\/strong><br \/>\nGas chromatography with flame ionisation detection (GC-FID) for the analysis of fatty acids.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Suitability<\/strong><br \/>\nFor the analysis of <strong>Dried blood spot (DBS)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Repeatability (CV \u2013 coefficient of variation)<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Saturated fatty acids \u2013 3,84%<\/li>\n<li>Unsaturated fatty acids \u2013 1,96%<\/li>\n<li>Omega-3 Index \u2013 2.93%<\/li>\n<li>Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio \u2013 4,97%<\/li>\n<li>AA Report: EPA \u2013 2,80%<\/li>\n<li>Trans-fat index \u2013 10,28%<\/li>\n<li>Omega-9 Index \u2013 5,22%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Shipping conditions (DBS test kit)<\/strong><br \/>\nShip at ambient temperature.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Storage conditions (DBS test kit)<\/strong><br \/>\nStore at room temperature.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shipping conditions (DBS test cards with blood sample)<\/strong><br \/>\nSend at room temperature.
