🌭 Regeneratively farmed hot dogs sound like a win—but what about the omega-3s?

Applegate’s new hot dogs spotlight regenerative farming and omega-3s, but OmegaQuant’s Kelly Patterson explains why the omega-3 messaging may give consumers the wrong impression about their nutritional significance.

Before you equate regenerative farming with a meaningful omega-3 benefit, take a closer look at the numbers.

‼️ Big news from OmegaQuant: We’ve received additional NIH funding to advance research into a blood fatty acid-based algorithm that could potentially help identify insulin resistance earlier and more easily—before traditional blood glucose markers reveal a problem.

The goal: turn fatty acid science into practical insights that could give patients and healthcare providers more time to act. Learn more @ link in bio ☝ by @omega3index

🚨 A major nutrition gap is hiding in plain sight.

In a new episode of LabNotes, Kelly Patterson breaks down the landmark research published in Current Developments in Nutrition—and what it reveals about omega-3 status across the U.S. 🇺🇸🐟

For the first time, researchers measured red blood cell EPA + DHA levels in 7,000+ Americans using newly released NHANES data.

The findings? Most Americans aren’t getting enough of these critical omega-3s.

Alzheimer's doesn't begin with memory loss—it begins years, even decades, earlier.

New research suggests:
🧠 Higher omega-3 (DHA) levels are linked to lower dementia risk
🧬 ApoE4 raises risk—but nutrition may help
⏳ Prevention is likely far more effective than treatment

So I’m trying a new style of video editing. Would love to hear your thoughts please.

This is truly one of my all time fav topics. Omega-3 fats are among the MOST important nutrients for all age groups, yet most people are still not getting enough. It’s estimated 87% of our teenagers get insufficient omega 3 at a time where their brains are developing. We know that higher omega 3 is associated with improved cognition, mood, sleep, memory, behaviour and reduced aggression.

From infancy through to older age, EPA and DHA play fundamental roles in brain development, cognition, mood regulation, vision, cardiovascular health, inflammation, immunity and cellular resilience. The human brain is approximately 60% fat, and DHA is one of its most abundant structural building blocks.

Research consistently shows that a higher Omega-3 Index - the percentage of EPA and DHA in red blood cell membranes - is associated with better long-term health outcomes. An index above 8% is linked with lower cardiovascular risk and has been proposed as a marker of healthier ageing and greater longevity, while levels below 4% are associated with increased risk.

This is why I love the @omega3index test. Rather than guessing, it measures your personal Omega-3 Index and your omega-6:omega-3 ratio, giving a powerful insight into inflammatory balance and whether your current diet or supplementation strategy is truly working.

I regularly use this test in clinic because two people eating seemingly similar diets can have very different omega-3 status. Personalised nutrition always beats assumptions.

Aim for oily fish 2–3 times per week, or consider a high-quality fish oil or algae-derived supplement if needed. Small daily habits, measured and tracked properly, can have profound effects on how we age.

Healthy longevity isn’t about adding years to life - it’s about adding life to those years. 🐟🧠❤️
