OmegaCheck
Comprehensive omega fatty acid evaluation that measures omega-3s (EPA, DPA, DHA) and the omega-6:omega-3 balance. Useful for identifying excess omega-6 intake from industrial seed oils (e.g., soybean, corn, safflower, canola) and insufficient marine omega-3 intake. Results can guide reducing seed‑oil–heavy processed foods and increasing fatty fish (salmon, sardines, mackerel) or targeted fish‑oil supplementation to improve cardiovascular and inflammatory risk.
