New Omega-3 Blood Test: A Better Predictor of Coronary Heart Disease Than Cholesterol
Date:8/19/2009

Smart Wellness at www.genesmart.com as a convenient, at-home "finger stick" kit which is sent by the user to a lab for a comprehensive analysis. Research suggests that the Gene Smart Omega-3 Index may be an independent risk factor that is not influenced by other heart disease risk factors like cholesterol or blood pressure. All risk factors, including the Omega-3 Index, should be addressed as part of an overall heart health risk reduction strategy.
