Product Information

Understand your heart health with lipid metabolism analysis

Use the fatty acid analysis to measure the status of your body's fatty acid supply. Fatty acids and cholesterol play an important role in cardiovascular disease and inflammation, which is why your intake should be carefully monitored. In particular, the ratios of certain fatty acids to one another provide information about your health status.

With this home test from DoctorBox you can check which fatty acids you consume and in what concentration. 

Together with your total cholesterol level, we use the fatty acid analysis to analyze the four most important fatty acid categories in your body and their ratios: saturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids, omega-3 fatty acids and omega-6 fatty acids. With this home test, you will receive a laboratory evaluation with detailed and easy-to-understand recommendations for action.

  • Based on dry blood: quick, uncomplicated and confidential, can be carried out from home

Symptoms

If the lipid metabolism is disturbed, there are usually hardly any symptoms. Nevertheless, you should watch out for the following symptoms:

  • Yellowish-brownish to reddish nodules on the eyelids, Achilles tendons, elbows, or knees (xanthomas)
  • Cloudy rings in the eye around the cornea
  • Pain in the abdomen, usually at the level of the liver or due to inflammation of the pancreas
