One of the most common questions I've been asked is:
What test is best to understand what is going on in my body?
There are hundreds of different tests, stool analysis, hair analysis, hormone testing, DNA testing, thyroid testing plus so much more . and of course the full blood panel recommended by your doctor.
All these tests can be useful, however if we don't know how your cells are performing on the cellular level, any other test is secondary.
That's why I love recommending the Balance Test before any other test.
Balance test is a dry blood analysis test which measures our ratio of 11 fatty acids and the ratio between omega 6 to Omega-3.
The crucial reason for finding our ratio between omega 6:3 is to establish how our the cells are working and if they are capable of absorbing nutrients and excreting waste.
When we have a high amount of omega 6 the cell membrane gets hard and rigid so we cannot absorb nutrients, get enough oxygen, water and excrete waste. The cell simply 'suffocates', loses its ability to work and can't produce energy.
THAT IS WHERE INFLAMMATION STARTS.
To improve our cellular health first we need to understand what our ratio is and then correct it - the Balance Test will show us that.
The correct ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 should be 3:1
I've done a lot of these tests and the ratio can be as high as 38:1, 18:1, and several children that I tested were 21:1 and 19:1.
The symptoms usually are high inflammation in the brain - anxiety, ADHD, depression, mood swings, dementia, irritability, foggy brain.
Other symptoms - arthritis, skin issues, allergies, fibromyalgia, exhaustion, hormonal imbalance, all gut issues.
I simply love this Balance test because it gets to the core of the problem and helps us understand how to correct it.
This test is a dry blood test anyone can do at home and post to a lab in Norway.
I highly recommend ordering the Balance test to improve your cellular health and lower chronic inflammation.

Let me know if you would like your ratio checked. I have Balance tests here. 😊
