Questions we could help with

Real questions from people like you, and how an omega-3 & 6 blood test helps answer them.

Do I actually need an omega supplement?

This test shows whether you're getting enough active omega-3s from food alone and if supplements would genuinely benefit you.

Is my body getting the nutrients it needs?

This test shows if your levels sit in the range associated with healthy inflammation and cardiovascular support.

Why is my skin so irritated?

Your skin barrier depends on the right omega-6 and 3 balance. Imbalances may show up as dryness or redness.

Why do my joints feel stiff in the morning?

Omega-3 and omega-6 fats help steer inflammation in your body, and this test shows your balance so you know where you stand. Stiffness that lasts or swollen joints are best checked by your GP.

“Fles to Zürich to get Ahead's MRI + blood test. Both Ahead's team and the partner's were super professional, and guided me step-by-step through the experience. The scan was short, blood draw uneventful, and I was in time to make my plane back. I really liked the report itself: simple to understand, with enough actual clinical depth.”

“Thank you, Ahead Health, I highly recommend your services and we surely stay in touch (hopefully only for preventative reasons!) As an enthusiastic athlete and simply a woman in her early 30s, I've finally come to realization that our bodies and health definitely need our support along the life journey we embark on as one. Just before turning 33 and running my 7th marathon, I couldn't help but checking my blood as I've been feeling rather fatigued and also mindful of yet again another birthday and a race. It was so simple! Ahead Health website is clear, user friendly and what I especially appreciate, not overpowering with things one doesn't need (aka a million of extra products where you feel like at a sales market). From the main page to choosing what one is looking for and booking an appointment - easy and with a very little time spent. Simple instructions on what not to do and what to do. Thank you, Ahead Health, I highly recommend your services and we surely stay in touch (hopefully only for preventative reasons!) Tatiana”
