Simple health checks in my control

I didn't know that private blood tests were an option. Tried this platform as the packages suited what I wanted for a good price. Easy to follow instructions, and super quick results. Platform provides more information than my gp's ever have on the tests and what the results meant. Would like more clinics to be able to test at (specifically Capital Pathology) but there is a decent network. Will continue to use.

"I'm a little biased as I work here! However, I love that The Bloody Good Test tracks my health over time. After turning 40, I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to drop dead from something basic I should have known about earlier. Measuring all my core biomarkers each year gives me peace of mind my health is on the right track"

Overview

The Omega-3 Plus profile goes beyond basic Omega-3 testing by providing a detailed look at your Omega-6:3 balance and the AA:EPA ratio—two of the most powerful indicators of inflammation in the body. Modern diets tend to be disproportionately high in Omega-6 fatty acids, which may contribute to chronic inflammation, poor recovery, and increased health risks. Assessing both the Omega-3 Index and Omega-6:3 Ratio gives you a clearer picture of your inflammatory status and how your diet may be influencing your overall wellbeing.

The additional AA:EPA ratio provides even deeper insight into inflammatory pathways, showing how effectively your body balances pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory fatty acids. This comprehensive assessment helps guide strategic dietary changes, supplement choices, and lifestyle habits to reduce inflammation, support heart health, stabilise mood, and enhance metabolic function. It’s an excellent tool for individuals managing chronic inflammation, active individuals seeking faster recovery, and anyone wanting a clearer picture of their internal health.

Symptoms

This test evaluates the balance between Omega-6 and Omega-3 fatty acids to assess inflammatory load in the body. An imbalanced Omega-6:3 ratio or an elevated AA:EPA ratio may be associated with increased inflammation, joint pain, sluggish recovery, skin irritation, hormonal imbalances, and metabolic challenges. It is ideal for individuals managing chronic inflammation or looking to understand the dietary drivers behind inflammatory symptoms.

How to prepare

1. Prepare Your Kit
Wash your hands with warm water and dry them thoroughly. Lay out your kit’s contents — dried blood collection card, lancet, alcohol pad, gauze pad, bandage, and return envelope — on a clean surface. Warming your hands and shaking them gently can help increase blood flow for easier collection.

2. Collect Your Sample
Use the provided lancet to perform a quick finger prick. Allow one or more drops of blood to fall onto the designated circles on the dried blood spot card. Ensure the circles are fully saturated, but avoid touching the card with your fingers.

3. Let It Dry
Allow your blood spot sample to dry completely at room temperature before packaging. This usually takes a few minutes — do not cover or seal the card until dry.

4. Pack and Return
Once dry, place the card and all components back into the return envelope provided. Seal and mail it using the pre-paid return label. Your sample will be analysed at our specialised lab.

5. Receive Your Results
Lab analysis typically takes one week.

After the test

Once your results are ready, you can review them and discuss the findings with a qualified practitioner to interpret what they mean for your health and create an appropriate plan if needed.

Your test results will be available in your private dashboard. If there are any urgent issues, we'll let you know so you can follow up with your health professional.

Understanding results

Your report includes your Omega-3 Index, your Omega-6:3 ratio, and your AA:EPA ratio. A balanced ratio suggests healthy inflammation control, while a high Omega-6:3 or AA:EPA ratio may indicate increased inflammatory stress. These insights help you adjust your diet to promote better balance and overall wellness.
