What is it?
The omega-3 form of DPA is found in fish and fish oils. Our bodies don’t make much DPA, so it is important to include in our diet.
Why it matters
Emerging research suggests that DPA supports heart and immune health, often working alongside EPA and DHA.
Reference ranges
Levels of individual fatty acids are not clinically helpful in isolation. Your Omega 3 Index, Omega-3/Omega-6 ratio, and EPA:AA ratio provide a more comprehensive assessment of your overall fatty acid status. We look at the results of those tests to determine whether you are getting the right amount.
