The Omega-3 Index Plus Test measures fatty acid levels in the blood and reports omega-3, omega-6 and trans fat blood levels.

The Omega-3 Index test 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.

We recommend testing your Omega-3 levels before and after taking Phytality products (Specifically Phytoplankton Omega and Multi and Clean Omega-3 products) to track the real-time increase in your EPA and DHA levels.

This test will specifically measure:

• Omega-3 Index

• Trans Fat Index

• Omega-6:Omega-3 Ratio

• AA:EPA Ratio
