Health for Life

Incredible! Non-smokers with low levels of omega-3 (fish oil fatty acids) had almost the same life expectancy as smokers with high levels of omega-3.

Mortality risk is especially increased in smokers with a low omega-3 index.

So many people could benefit from a higher level of omega-3 intake -- smokers and non-smokers alike.

Have you ever tested your omega-3 index? This is a test I run frequently in my practice, and most people have very low levels -- often around 4%. We want it to be >8% for optimal risk reduction and longevity!
