Omega-3 Index Omega-6:Omega-3 Ratio AA:EPA Ratio Trans Fat Index Individual Fatty Acid Level
The AA/EPA ratio is your level of arachidonic acid (AA), an omega-6 fatty acid, vs. eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), an omega-3 fatty acid. These are important fatty acids in metabolism because powerful signaling molecules can be made from them. These molecules can affect anything from blood clotting to birth contractions to inflammatory responses. Having different levels of these two fatty acids could affect processes that ultimately impact inflammation and overall health.
Your cells are made up of fats. And that’s a good thing!
You can find out what fats make up your cells with the Omega-3 Index Complete test. Diet is not the only thing that determines your blood fatty acid levels – metabolism, genetics, gender, weight, age and other lifestyle factors all can play a role.
Optimize Your Fatty Acid Status in 3 Easy Steps
All you need to do to raise your Omega-3 Index is modify your diet to include more EPA and DHA, whether from fatty fish like salmon or omega-3 supplements. The actual amount you would need to take in order to raise your Omega-3 Index into the target range (>8%) depends in part on the starting level, but it cannot be predicted with certainty.
Measure
You won’t know if your fatty acid status just by tracking your diet — it must be measured.
Modify
Once you know your status, it can be optimized with simple dietary changes.
Monitor
Testing your fatty acid every 4 months will ensure that your levels stay optimal.
