Optimise your Omega-3 levels
Chronic inflammation is one of the leading drivers of the most serious modern diseases, including heart disease, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, arthritis, Alzheimer’s and many types of cancer. Omega-3s are found throughout the body, notably in cell membranes, where they affect the fluidity of the membranes and, ultimately, gene expression. All the Omega-3s play numerous important roles in the body, including in cellular metabolism, immune system function, and cardiovascular health.
EPA, DHA and DPA exert anti-inflammatory effects, in contrast to Omega-6s, especially arachidonic acid (AA), which tends to be pro-inflammatory. Linoleic acid from Omega -6s converts to arachidonic acid (AA), a precursor for inflammatory cytokines. Experts argue that our ancestors evolved with a diet that had approximately equal proportions of Omega-3s and Omega-6s. The emergence of the Western diet and refined processed foods has seen a significant increase in the consumption of refined seed and vegetable oils and shortening found in pastries and high-sugar, high-vegetable fat junk food. Science recommends a 3:1 balance between essential fatty acids Omega-6 and Omega-3. ...but 95% of people are at risk of an imbalance. People who don’t take Omega-3 supplements regularly can be out of balance with a ratio of up to 25:1.

Know More
Research Resources
Increasing the Omega-3 Index by increased intake of EPA + DHA improved a number of surrogate parameters for cardiovascular risk: heart rate, blood pressure, platelet activity and triglycerides were reduced, HRV, LDL, VLDL, HDL markers all improved. Pro-inflammatory cytokines were reduced, anti-inflammatory oxylipins were increased.

Low EPA and DHA (Omega 3 Index) reflects the risk of Sudden Cardiac Death.

Increasing DHA in the brain has a protective effect on brain health, is important for people with APOE4 gene variant which is linked to inflammation of the brain and Alzheimer's. Higher doses are required to increase CSF levels, B vitamins improve Omega 3 metabolism.
