Yes. The BalanceTest is our proof of concept that Zinzino BalanceOil+ works effectively when taken correctly. The first test reveals your current Omega levels and the second test shows the improvements when you’ve taken the supplement as per recommendations for at least 120 days. The scientifically certified measure of pure fish oil, pre-harvest extra virgin olive oil and naturally sourced vitamin D3 will safely adjust and maintain the Omega-3 levels in your body and help you achieve an optimal Omega-6:3 balance below 3:1. An independent, GMP-certified chemical analysis contract lab will anonymously analyze the dried blood spot test for eleven different fatty acids. The average Omega-6:3 ratio for people not taking our Omega-3 supplement is 12:1 for Northern Europe, 15:1 for Europe and 25:1 for USA. After taking Balance Oil+ for 120 days, the average ratio is for most people below 3:1.

Yes. We collaborate with Lysi, a global leader in fish oil production. The fish oil is extracted exclusively from certified fisheries before being processed in Iceland by Lysi. They conduct rigorous heavy metal and raw material analyses on the fish oil to adhere to strict EU regulations and ensure the utmost purity, maintaining levels far below the established safety limits. As our oceans experience more pressure from pollution, all fish oil will carry toxins such as mercury and other heavy metals. These environmental contaminants are considered oxidants, and they are detrimental to your health, attacking healthy cells and causing illness and disease. Small fish are at the bottom of the food chain and accumulate fewer toxins which naturally enhance their safety and purity as a source of Omega-3, enabling a milder refining process. Regardless, you should always pick an Omega-3 supplement where the crude fish oil is documented as rigorously purified from heavy metals, including the removal of plastic residuals called phthalates. Not every manufacturer performs this step to ensure the purity and potency, even though phthalates are carcinogenic and disrupt hormones. If they have carried out this check, it will be clearly displayed on the bottle.

Our BalanceOil+ was first on the market to offer health benefits proven by a third party. Most traditionally processed Omega supplements on the market have little or no effect in the body because the Omega-3 nutrients in the fish oil are not potent enough to be absorbed in the body. To provide long-term health benefits, the fish oil needs to be fresh, protected by the same powerful antioxidants naturally present in fish. Polyphenols from pre-harvest extra virgin olives are the antioxidants closest to the ones found in fish and Zinzino was one of the first brands to add this game-changing ingredient to an Omega-3 supplement. BalanceOil+ is a mix of pure fish oil and extra virgin olive oil packed with polyphenols to stabilize oxidation, optimize absorption and make sure the essential fatty acids keep the cell membranes of your body fluid and flexible to benefit from the nutrients. The result is a Polyphenol Omega food supplement that is actually closer to oily fish than fish oil. And our BalanceTest proves it in writing.

Among plant antioxidants, the phenolic compounds in early-harvest extra-virgin olive oil most closely match the lipid-phase activity required to stabilize marine omega-3 fatty acids and Zinzino was one of the first brands to add this game-changing ingredient to an Omega-3 supplement.

A BalanceTest results revealing an optimal Omega-6:3 ratio is the most tangible evidence that you have consumed a fresh and potent Omega-supplement. All fish oil will eventually go rancid and lose its quality. That is why the purification and refining process plays such an important role in keeping oxidation to a minimum. In order to preserve the highest level of potency in the oil, the freshness needs to be meticulously measured. A stable oxidation process gives the Omega-3 nutrients in the oil more time to enter the cells in your body and start supporting heart, brain and immune function. There are several ways. Adding antioxidants is one method to slow down the oxidation in fish oil, increase shelf-life and improve quality. BalanceOil+ is fortified with natural antioxidants such as naturally mixed tocopherols, vitamin E, and extra virgin olive oil from pre-harvest olives known for its powerful content of polyphenols. These bioactive micronutrients with their extremely potent antioxidant properties are naturally engineered to keep the Omega-3s fresh and potent enough to safely restore the essential fatty acid balance in the body.

When using Zinzino BalanceOil+ correctly, according to the recommendations based on the results of the Balance Test, research conducted by our scientists shows proof of benefits in 120 days, the time it takes for your cells to regenerate. It is recommended to do the test before starting on the Balance Oil to establish your initial ratio, and then again after 120 days to track your progress and adjust your intake if necessary.

There are approximately ten different Omega-3 fatty acids, and the three primary ones are ALA, EPA, and DHA. The human body is composed of 37 trillion cells, and all of them depend on EPA and DHA to run smoothly. EPA is linked to heart and joint health and the immune system, while DHA is particularly known for its importance in brain structure and eye health. These fatty acids are primarily found in oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, sardines, and herring, which is why marine-derived fish oils are such rich sources of EPA and DHA. As the two fatty acids each play slightly different roles in the body, the ratio between them can influence how they support your health BalanceOil+’s unique 20:10 ratio of EPA and DHA meets and exceeds global food and health agencies’ daily recommended dose of appr 2 grams per day for adults. A fish oil with twice as much EPA as DHA is considered by many researchers and health professionals to be a balanced, effective mix for general wellness; especially if you're aiming to support inflammation control, heart health, and metabolic balance. It provides a strong dose of EPA while still including plenty of DHA for cognitive and cellular support.
