A Question I Never Thought to Ask

What's Your Number?

If you're already trying to address inflammation — paying attention to food, movement, sleep, recovery — there's one number I didn't know I could measure.

Now I do. And it changed everything.

The Piece I Didn't Know About

There Was a Question I Never Thought to Ask

If you're here, chances are you're looking for ways to address inflammation in your body. And you're probably already trying. 

Paying attention to what you eat. Moving when you can. Thinking about protein, sleep, stress, recovery.

I spent years doing many of the same things. Through roughly fifteen years of degenerating knees, joint replacements, and recovery, I never once heard about this piece.

It's the balance between omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids in your body. Both matter — but so does the ratio between them, especially when it comes to your body's inflammatory response.

There's a specific test that measures that ratio. A simple at-home finger-prick blood test. I'd never heard of it. I didn't even know I could.

So I did.

A quiet moment of realization
My Result
55:1

I wasn't prepared for that.

This test measures the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids in your body. The recommended balance is preferably below 3:1.

Mine was 55:1.

After fifteen years of trying to take care of my body more intentionally, I had no idea what my omega balance looked like.

55:1→ 120 DAYS →?
I'm on the BalanceOil+ protocol now. I committed to 120 days and tested again. I'm waiting on the result. When I have it, I'll update this page.
Reflection on years of healing


Why This Landed So Hard

I Think About Those Years Differently Now...

My knees started degenerating. Then came two knee replacements and a hip replacement. Then recovery from each one.

Through all of it, I focused on everything I knew to focus on — my surgeon, physical therapy, strength, protein, nutrition.

I wish I'd known about this number back then. I wish I'd known there was another piece of my health I could actually measure.

Because the knee may have been the part being replaced, but there was a whole body attached to it.

So, What's Your Number?

I was doing a lot of things right. And I still didn't know mine until I tested it.

That's the thing about guessing. You can feel pretty confident about what you're doing and still not actually know.

I decided I wanted to know.

You can start the same way I did — with the at-home BalanceTest and the BalanceOil+ 120-day protocol.

Common Questions

The Details You're PROBABLY Wondering About

What is the BalanceOil+?
BalanceOil+ is a daily omega-3 supplement made with fish oil sourced from Norwegian waters and high-polyphenol extra virgin olive oil. And no, it doesn't taste fishy at all. I was pleasantly surprised by that one.
How much does it cost?
It's $127 to get started, which includes your first BalanceTest and your first month of BalanceOil+. After that, it's $47 a month for the oil. In month five, you'll receive your second test so you can retest after 120 days and see how your number has changed.
How does the test work?
It's a simple at-home finger-prick blood test. You do it in minutes, mail it in, and get your results in about 10–20 days from an independent third-party lab.
Why 120 days?
Your fatty acid balance takes time to shift at the cellular level. The 120-day retest window is what allows you to see a real, measurable change in your number — not a guess.

I've Been Piecing This Together for 15 Years

My knees started degenerating. Then surgery. Then recovery. Then strength, food, and everything that goes into supporting a whole body.

Omega balance is the newest piece.

I've spent fifteen years learning things I wish I'd understood sooner. I'm still learning. I'll keep sharing what I find as I go — including my second result, whenever it lands.

If you want to come with me, I'd love to have you here for it. - Suzie
