Complete Fatty Acid Test
Also known as: Full fatty acid profile with Omega-3 Index & Trans Fat Index
Also searched as: omega-3 index test · fatty acid profile test · trans fat test
Every major fat in your blood — omega-3s, omega-6s, saturated and trans fats — plus your Omega-3 Index.
The fats you eat become part of every cell membrane, shaping inflammation, brain function, hormones, and heart health. This finger-prick test goes beyond a simple ratio to map your full fatty acid profile, including the Omega-3 Index (the share of EPA and DHA in your red blood cells) and a Trans Fat Index. You may also see it called "omega-3 index test", "fatty acid profile test", or "trans fat test".
What the Complete Fatty Acid Test measures
- ALAThe plant-based omega-3.
- EPAA key anti-inflammatory omega-3.
- DPAAn omega-3 between EPA and DHA.
- DHAThe main structural omega-3 in the brain.
