For a long time, I believed I was doing everything right for my health. I was a passionate advocate for wellness, a woman who valued a healthy lifestyle. Then, on December 21st, 2017, my world was shaken by a heart attack. After an emergency operation and being told I would need a handful of medications for the rest of my life, I refused to accept that as my only option. I knew there had to be a way to take back control.
My search for answers led me to a crucial discovery about the importance of Essential Fatty Acids. But even after years of diligently taking fish oil supplements, a test revealed I was severely deficient in Omega-3. This was my “aha!” moment, the moment I learned that guessing isn’t enough. That’s when I found Zinzino and its science-based, test-don’t-guess philosophy. It gave me the actionable data I needed to finally see real, lasting change in my health.
That’s why I’m so excited to share some groundbreaking news. A major new study co-authored by Zinzino scientists has just been published and you can access from the following link, in a prestigious peer-reviewed journal, Lipids in Health and Disease.
This isn’t just another small-scale trial of a few hundred or thousand; this is a landmark piece of research that looked at data from more than 590,000 whole-blood dried blood spot samples from around the world which is the largest of its kind ever to be published.
So, what did they find?
The results are both eye-opening and deeply validating. The study’s key finding is that the vast majority of people worldwideβeven those who think they are doing the right things for their healthβhave an imbalanced ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acids.
This is a problem because these two types of fatty acids are critical to our health. Think of them like a seesaw: Omega-6 is on one side, and Omega-3 is on the other. For our bodies to be in balance and to function optimally, this seesaw needs to be level. A balanced ratio is vital for controlling inflammation, supporting brain function, and maintaining heart health.
The study showed that globally, this seesaw is heavily tipped in the wrong direction. This confirmed my own personal experience and highlighted that my deficiency wasn’t an isolated caseβit’s a global issue.
Why is this study such a big deal?
- It’s the largest of its kind. With over half a million samples from Zinzino’s own BalanceTest database, this isn’t just a small sample; it’s a global snapshot of human nutrition. It provides hard evidence that the Omega-6 to Omega-3 imbalance is a widespread, global issue.
- It proves the value of testing. The study validates Zinzino’s “test, don’t guess” philosophy. It shows that taking a one-size-fits-all supplement isn’t enough. We need to measure our personal levels to truly know what’s going on inside our bodies and to make sure we’re on the right path.
- It reinforces Zinzino’s mission. This scientific validation is a powerful testament to the products I’m so passionate about. It confirms that by using a scientifically designed test and then following up with a superior, personalized formulation, we can genuinely restore balance and help our bodies thrive.
For me, this isn’t just about business; it’s about a movement. It’s about empowering people to take control of their health with real, measurable results, my personal story is a testament to that. I see this as a game-changer for so many people who are trying to live healthier lives. The consequences of being out of balance are profound. This is not anecdotal, the essential fats are not open to debate in our need for them because there has been a massive amount of study done on them, and being deficient is directly related to increased risks of disease. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) allows specific claims for impact on over 100 diseases but most prominent amongst them are listed here, the ones in green being the most prominent:
Ready to Find Your Balance?
The first step to a healthier you is knowing where you stand. This study shows that simply taking an Omega-3 supplement isn’t enough; you need to know your own unique levels. Itβs the same principle I applied to my own life, and itβs the reason my heart health is now better than ever.
If you’re ready to stop guessing and start measuring, I invite you to take the Zinzino BalanceTest for yourself. Let science show you the way to a more balanced life.
