OmegaQuant is an independent, CLIA-certified lab that offers nutritional & health status testing to researchers, clinicians and the public. We test: Omega-3 Index Vitamin D Prenatal DHA Mother's Milk DHA Our goal is to offer the highest quality analytical services to researchers and to provide simple tests of nutritional status to consumers, with the ultimate purpose of advancing the science and use of nutrients to improve health. Shop Tests Our Story Dr. Bill Harris, a leading expert in omega-3 fatty acids, founded OmegaQuant in 2009. He obtained his Ph.D. in Human Nutrition from the University of Minnesota and did post-doctoral fellowships in Clinical Nutrition and Lipid Metabolism with Dr. Bill Connor at the Oregon Health Sciences University. His interest in omega-3 fatty acids began with his postdoctoral work when he published his first study on the effects of salmon oil on serum lipids in humans (1980). Since that time he has been the recipient of five NIH grants for studies on the effects of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) on human health. He has more than 350 publications relating to fatty acids, including omega-3s, in medical literature and was an author on two American Heart Association scientific statements on fatty acids: “Fish Consumption, Fish Oil, Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Cardiovascular Disease” (2002), and “Omega-6 Fatty Acids and Risk for Cardiovascular Disease” (2009) both published in the journal Circulation. Dr. Harris co-invented the Omega-3 Index in 2004 and made it commercially available to the research community and the public in 2009. To date, the Omega-3 Index has been used as the standard measure of omega-3 status in more than 200 clinical studies. Dr. Harris is also a Professor in the Department of Medicine in the Sanford School of Medicine at the University of South Dakota. Dr. Harris moved on as OmegaQuant’s President in late 2020 to establish the Fatty Acid Research Institute (FARI), where he will go back to his roots of conducting res

Very clear report combined with a calculator to determine the suggested daily quantity of DHA & EHA to be consumed to bring index into the optimal range.

Todo bien, pero se puede mejorar en algunos aspectos: - Comunicación: El informe de resultados en español muy bien, pero todos los emails, incluso este, han sido en inglés. Estaría mejor si fueran más claros en las recomendaciones sobre suplementos alimenticios en casa caso concreto con respecto a los contenidos de EPA y/o DHA que mejor me irían. - Si me baso mi 3xperiencia, es un test realmente demasiado caro. En España es un precio muy caro cuando la toma de muestra además la realizó yo mismo y no personal sanitario especializado. - Plazo muy largo. Si tenemos en cuenta el precio que cuesta. Por ese precio en mi experiencia una recogida, transporte y entrega en 24 o 48 horas parecería no sólo razonable sino que incluso así seguiría siendo bastante caro en España.

the test consists of one number, the percentage of omega index, the results is downloadable in 2 page pdf file, and it is the only piece of information person obtains the rest of the text is generic text on omega 3 index and the list of foods that you should eat, so there is no other analysis from the blood test, no comparison with peers (i.e. age, geography, etc.) I totally lost my trust with the service, it is total black box and the number could be just random generated, I dont have confidence that the actual test has been done at all and I will not recommend it to my friends and family, won't repeat the test
Response from OmegaQuantJul 18, 2023
We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your Omega-3 Index Basic test. The Omega-3 Index Basic Test measures the amount of EPA and DHA in the blood, which is the Omega-3 Index. If you are looking for more comprehensive results those are included in the Omega-3 Index Plus or Complete test. Our lab is CLIA certified and routinely inspected.

Affordable home testing and quick results.

The test was easy and the results were quick. The calculator showing you know which supplement and amount to take was very helpful. It was encouraging to know my trans fats were negligible. Also seeing how easy with a few supplements I can boost my omegas.
