The Test Grade. The Reason Behind It.

Potentially useful for the right buyer, with meaningful evidence, coverage, transparency, access, cost, terms, or privacy tradeoffs to review.

A lower grade does not mean a panel is a bad personal fit. Your Fit Score can be higher when its purpose, price, sample, access, or support matches what you need.

  • Omega-3, Total
  • Linoleic Acid
  • Arachidonic Acid
  • Omega-6, Total
  • Omega-6/Omega-3 Ratio
  • Arachidonic Acid/EPA Ratio

  • Fatty Acids
  • Inflammatory Markers
  • Micronutrients

Important limits and omissions

  • LC/MS is named by Marek. Its red-blood-cell description conflicts with the whole-blood specimen in Quest documentation for named OmegaCheck test 92701. Marek does not establish the exact order-code mapping. Confirm the specification; an RBC-only assay or superiority over plasma testing is not verified.
  • Nine named report entries are preserved: EPA, DPA, DHA, Omega-3 Total, Linoleic Acid, Arachidonic Acid, Omega-6 Total, Omega-6/Omega-3 Ratio and Arachidonic Acid/EPA Ratio. Totals and ratios are not nine independent biomarkers. No separate EPA+DPA+DHA combined result or RBC-only Omega-3 Index is added from another laboratory listing.
  • Results are emailed when available. Guided Optimization is a separate program with treatment eligibility requirements. An included consultation, individual interpretation service, actual sample report, reference-range explanation and follow-up plan have not been established for this test purchase.
  • Comparative value and clinical data or specimen privacy have not been fully assessed.

Reading the labels

What Has Been Checked?

Source collected

Evidence labels stay separate from the Test Grade. They show how much source support exists for the evaluation.

The balance

The Strengths. The Tradeoffs.

Strengths

  • Measures a named set of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, totals and ratios in blood.
  • Order online for provider approval and blood collection at Quest.
  • The lab requisition is valid for six months from purchase.

Watch-outs

  • Marek adds a $10 venipuncture fee to orders of $199 or less and waives it on orders over $199. No additional payment is required at the lab. Lab sales are final and non-refundable.
  • Eligible US residents need a valid US driver license or state-issued ID. Hawaii and US territories are excluded, and orders are unavailable to residents of New York, New Jersey and Rhode Island.
  • Results typically arrive within 14 business days. Approximately two weeks is a general estimate that varies with test size and complexity; it is not a guaranteed calendar-day deadline.
  • LC/MS is named by Marek. Its red-blood-cell description conflicts with the whole-blood specimen in Quest documentation for named OmegaCheck test 92701. Marek does not establish the exact order-code mapping. Confirm the specification; an RBC-only assay or superiority over plasma testing is not verified.
  • Nine named report entries are preserved: EPA, DPA, DHA, Omega-3 Total, Linoleic Acid, Arachidonic Acid, Omega-6 Total, Omega-6/Omega-3 Ratio and Arachidonic Acid/EPA Ratio. Totals and ratios are not nine independent biomarkers. No separate EPA+DPA+DHA combined result or RBC-only Omega-3 Index is added from another laboratory listing.
  • Results are emailed when available. Guided Optimization is a separate program with treatment eligibility requirements. An included consultation, individual interpretation service, actual sample report, reference-range explanation and follow-up plan have not been established for this test purchase.
  • Confirm the exact specimen and preparation instructions with the ordering provider. No fasting or supplement-change protocol is inferred from another laboratory order code.
