The Omega-3 Index measures the amount of EPA and DHA in your blood, specifically the red blood cell membrane. Membranes, or cell walls, are made of different kinds of fats called fatty acids. We have found that having a higher proportion of EPA and DHA in the membrane tracks with how much omega-3 is in your diet and is a marker of better health. Raising your Omega-3 Index to the desirable zone of 8% will help ensure you are getting enough of the right omega-3s — EPA and DHA — to protect your health.

DHA (or docosahexaenoic acid) is an omega-3 fatty acid found in fish, fish oil, and prenatal supplements that is an important nutrient for a healthy pregnancy. The Prenatal DHA Test, which is a measure of DHA in blood, lets you know if you are getting enough of this key nutrient for both you and your baby.

For you, DHA is important because studies have shown that women with higher DHA blood levels are less likely to have early preterm birth. For your baby, DHA is important for brain, eye and immune system development.

Omega-3 : Omega-6 Ratio
The Omega-6/Omega-3 ratio (also written “n-6/n-3”) analyzes 7 omega-6 fatty acids and 4 omega-3 fatty acids. The total amount of omega-6s and omega-3s are divided by each other to get a ratio. We recommend a ratio of 3-5:1 (omega-6:omega-3).

AA : EPA Ratio
The AA/EPA ratio is your level of arachidonic acid (AA), an omega-6 fatty acid, vs. eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), an omega-3 fatty acid. These are important fatty acids in metabolism because powerful signaling molecules can be made from them. These molecules can affect anything from blood clotting to birth contractions to inflammatory responses. Having different levels of these two fatty acids could affect processes that ultimately impact inflammation and overall health.

Trans Fat Index
Eating foods with trans fats made from hydrogenated oils increases the risk for heart attacks. For years, trans fats were used to make all kinds of processed foods. But because of their effect on heart health, trans fats were deemed unsafe for human consumption and are being removed from food supply chains all over the world, including the US. However, other kinds of trans fats occur naturally at fairly low levels in meat and milk products, and they seem to have health benefits. The Trans Fat Index measures the trans fats from industrial production and should be below 1%.

The Mother’s Milk DHA Test measures the amount of omega-3 DHA in breast milk. Studies show breast milk is the best way to deliver DHA to your growing baby. 

Omega-3 DHA is an important component of a baby’s developing brain and it is present in breast milk. DHA levels in breast milk, like blood, go up and down mainly based on how much you eat. We recommend Mother’s Milk DHA levels of at least 0.32% to meet the needs of the infant’s growing brain.

Individual Fatty Acid Levels We measure 24 individual fatty acid levels in your blood includes your Omega-3 fatty acids, Omega-6 fatty acids, Monounsaturated fatty acids, saturated fatty acids and Trans fatty acids.

The Vitamin D test measures the level of total Vitamin D in your blood and is equivalent to 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 and D3 in plasma. Vitamin D blood level in the 30-50 ng/mL range may help support metabolic, heart, brain and immune health.

For our CoQ10 test, we report your CoQ10 levels and explain what these levels mean for your overall health. The report includes an interpretation of your results, highlighting whether your CoQ10 is within a normal range or if it suggests a deficiency. We also provide recommendations based on your results, such as dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments, or supplementation, to help optimise your CoQ10 levels. Additionally, you'll find information on the role of CoQ10 in supporting energy production, heart health, and cellular protection, helping you make informed choices about your wellness.

The Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) test measures the amount of glucose attached to hemoglobin, a protein in your blood. It reflects your average blood glucose levels over the past three months. A healthy HbA1c level is below 5.7%. If your level is above 5.7%, it may indicate high blood glucose, which could be a sign of diabetes or prediabetes. It’s important to discuss elevated results with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

For our Glutathione test, we provide a detailed report that includes your glutathione levels along with the key ratio of reduced to oxidised glutathione. This ratio helps assess your body’s antioxidant capacity and cellular health. The report interprets these values to show whether your glutathione balance is optimal or indicates a deficiency or oxidative stress. We also offer personalised recommendations based on your results, including possible dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments, or supplementation. Additionally, we provide insights into the role of glutathione in detoxification, immune support, and overall cellular health to help guide your wellness decisions.

For our Homocysteine test, we provide a detailed report that includes your homocysteine levels and a clear interpretation of what these levels mean for your cardiovascular health. The report explains whether your homocysteine is within the normal range or elevated, which can be a potential risk factor for heart disease. We also highlight the role of vitamins B6, B12, and folate in regulating homocysteine levels and provide personalised recommendations based on your results. These may include dietary adjustments, supplements, or lifestyle changes to help maintain optimal homocysteine levels. Additionally, we provide insights into how managing homocysteine through proper nutrition and vitamins can help support overall heart health and wellness.
