Omega 3 is primarily a building material for every cell, reduces inflammation, protects the cardiovascular system, responsible for fat metabolism, and benefits the nervous system. If you would like to learn more about its beneficial properties, read this article: Omega 3 fatty acids. All you need to know – complete overview, benefits, testing, and practical recommendations.

Low omega-3 concentrations contribute to the pathogenesis of many diseases, including inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, whereas elevated omega-3 levels have suppressive effects (Simopoulos, 2002).

How to increase omega 3?

1) Add oily fish to your diet – at least two or three times a week. Oily fish to include are:

herring
salmon
sardines
mackerel
anchovies

2) Consume omega 3 in supplements. Read my article to find all the necessary information about omega supplementation: Fish oil omega 3 fatty acids. How to choose high-quality omega.

3) Add other foods rich in omega-3 to your diet. For example:

Coconut
Chia seeds
Hemp seeds

Because you consume very little omega, I advise you to get a blood test for omega 3 and 6 to know your precise levels.

Low level, although it covers the minimal daily intake!!!

You consume a minimal amount of omega 3.

Your approximate daily intake is:

Recommendations:

Your recommended omega 3 intake is more than the MDI (minimal daily intake) but less than 500 mg/day, the amount recommended by the International Society for the Study of Fatty Acids and Lipids (ISSFAL).

To optimize the amount of omega, all you need to do is slightly change your diet!

An optimal omega concentration prevents many diseases, including inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, insulin resistance, and conditions of the cardiovascular and nervous systems. Also, it regulates fat metabolism.

Low omega-3 concentrations contribute to the pathogenesis of many diseases, including inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, whereas high omega 3 levels have suppressive effects (Simopoulos, 2002).

Fantastic!!!

Your omega 3 consumption covers the optimal daily amount!!!

Your approximate daily intake is:

Recommendations:

Congratulations! Your omega 3 intakes will likely reach the recommended level by the International Society for the Study of Fatty Acids and Lipids, ISSFAL.

Try to stick to this type of diet. An optimal omega concentration prevents many diseases, including inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, insulin resistance, and conditions of the cardiovascular and nervous systems. Also, it regulates fat metabolism (Simopoulos, 2002).

To learn more about the beneficial properties of omega 3, I recommend reading the article: Omega 3 fatty acids – complete analysis, benefits, testing, and practical recommendations.

Thank you for performing my Omega 3 quiz, I hope you like it and don't forget to share it with your friends and family, so they also can benefit from it. Almost everyone knows about the benefits of essential fatty acids, omega 3 fatty acids because it has pronounced anti-inflammatory properties and helps us prevent and treat many diseases. I want to introduce some interesting facts and research on this essential fatty acid.

Interesting facts about Omega 3 fatty acids

There are 2 associations in the world that deal exclusively with the study of fats and the impact of omega 3 on our health. International Society for the Study of Fatty Acids and Lipids ISSFAL and Fatty Acid Research Institute (FARI).
Studies carried out in the 70s showed that the indigenous inhabitants of Greenland, who consumed large amounts of fatty fish, almost did not suffer from cardiovascular diseases and did not have atherosclerosis.
Many studies confirm the connection between the concentration of this fatty acid and well-being. It has been found that people who have a low content of this important nutrient in their bodies are more prone to anxiety, often experience fears, and are more prone to stress.
Omega-3, especially DHA, is essential for forming a child's brain and nervous system. Sufficient amounts of omegas during pregnancy and early life are of crucial importance. It reduces the risk of developing many diseases, so if you are planning a pregnancy or are already a mother of a baby, ensure you get enough of this essential fatty acid in your diet daily.
Today, anyone can check their exact level of omega 3 and other fatty acids from anywhere in the world; all it takes is one drop of blood!

Conclusions and tips

Unfortunately, modern diet does not contain enough omega-3, and omega-6 is in excess. Therefore, it is essential to optimize the intake of omega-3 through conscious nutrition and dietary supplements. If you have any disease or want to optimize your unsaturated fatty acid levels accurately, I recommend doing omega blood test. Only one drop of blood is needed for the test! This method helps quickly, safely, and accurately analyze the state of your fatty acids from the comfort of your home. Take care of your health, and optimize your omega 3 level!
