Yes. The dried blood spot test is analyzed by an independent, third-party laboratory using advanced liquid chromatography. It provides a reliable, detailed breakdown of 11 fatty acid levels, your balance score, and dietary guidance. It’s the same type of testing used in scientific studies and clinical settings. To ensure accuracy over time, results are regularly compared against live blood samples, confirming that this method continues to deliver precise and trustworthy results.

Your omega 6:3 ratio plays a vital role in the health of your cell membranes. When you're in balance, your cell membranes become more fluid and functional—this means nutrients can enter your cells more efficiently, and waste products can exit more effectively. If your ratio is out of balance, cell membranes become stiff and inflamed, making it harder for your cells to function properly. This cellular dysfunction can contribute to fatigue, poor recovery, chronic inflammation, and many other health concerns.

That’s great news! If your results show you're already in balance, it means your current diet and lifestyle are effectively supporting your health. In this case, the cost of the whole order is refunded, which is a nice bonus. That said, 99% of people who test for the first time are not in balance—so testing is a valuable way to know for sure, rather than guess. Even if you're currently balanced, ongoing support with high-quality omega-3 can help maintain that balance long-term, especially as dietary and lifestyle factors shift over time.

Once your test is processed, you’ll receive a personalized report online that shows your current fatty acid profile, your Omega 6:3 ratio, and suggestions for improvement. Once you start the omega-3 supplement, you can re-test after 4–6 months to measure your progress.

The omega 6:3 ratio measures the balance between pro-inflammatory omega-6 fatty acids and anti-inflammatory omega-3s in your body. A healthy balance (ideally around 3:1 or lower) supports heart, brain, joint, immune, and cellular health. Most people have a much higher ratio due to modern diets—often 15:1 or worse—leading to chronic inflammation and increased health risks.

The subscription model is designed to support long-term, consistent use—because that’s where the results happen. Clinical research shows it typically takes 120 days (about 4 months) to fully restore balance in your cells. Subscriptions ensure you don’t run out, with the option to cancel or pause at any time.

The shipping cost is actually credited to your account, so it's not lost at all. These credits can be used like store credit to purchase other products, such as an extra bottle of omega-3 or Viva+ saffron supplements. Some people even choose to pause their monthly subscription and use their stored shipping credits to buy what they need—it's a flexible system that lets you get the most value from your purchases.

For most people, high-quality omega-3s are safe and beneficial, even alongside medication. However, if you’re taking blood thinners or managing a health condition, it’s always wise to consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement.

Omega-3 fatty acids, especially EPA and DHA, are essential to many functions in the body—and most people aren’t getting enough through diet alone. Supplementing with high-quality omega-3 can support a wide range of health goals. In fact, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has approved 18 health claims for omega-3s, including benefits for: Heart health and normal blood pressure Brain function and cognitive performance Vision and eye health Inflammation reduction Triglyceride (blood fat) regulation Prenatal and infant development Normal liver function and joint flexibility Omega-3s also help maintain healthy skin, boost immune function, and support overall cellular health by improving membrane fluidity. Regular supplementation is one of the most research-supported ways to improve long-term wellness.

You’re never locked in long-term. You can pause or cancel at any time. But keep in mind: if omega-3 levels drop again, so will the benefits. Think of it like brushing your teeth—you don’t stop just because they’re clean!

Not all omega-3 supplements are created equal. Many store-bought options are low-dose, poorly absorbed, oxidized (rancid), or under-dosed for your body weight. The omega-3 oil used here is third-party tested, sustainably sourced, and formulated with polyphenols for stability and effectiveness—plus it's dosed specifically for you.
