Let's analyze your Omega-3 Total levels

A few questions help us personalize your report.

About Omega-3 Total

Total omega-3 measures the combined percentage of all omega-3 fatty acids (EPA, DHA, ALA, and others) in red blood cell membranes, reflecting long-term dietary intake and supplementation over the prior 3–4 months. Higher omega-3 status is associated with reduced cardiovascular mortality, lower inflammation, better mood regulation, and protection against age-related cognitive decline. The Omega-3 Index — specifically the sum of EPA and DHA — is the most clinically validated fraction, with a target above 8% for cardiovascular protection.

What does your Omega-3 Total result mean?

High omega-3 levels are cardioprotective, associated with lower triglycerides and reduced inflammation. Low omega-3 is among the most common nutritional deficiencies and independently predicts cardiovascular mortality.

Optimal vs. normal range

The Omega-3 Index target is 8% or higher. Most Western populations average 4-5%. Functional target is 8-12%. Levels respond to supplementation within 4-8 weeks.
