Alzheimer’s disease is currently the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S., affecting roughly 6 million Americans. With only 3% of Alzheimer’s cases linked to genetic factors, the majority are influenced by lifestyle and diet, making prevention a realistic and impactful goal​.

Omega-3s and Polyphenols: Key Nutrients for Brain Health

Omega-3 fatty acids are well-documented for their role in reducing brain inflammation, preserving cell membranes, and supporting cognitive function. Research shows that individuals with optimal omega-3 levels may reduce their risk of Alzheimer’s by up to 50%​.

Similarly, polyphenols—antioxidants found in plant-based foods like fruits, vegetables, and olives—offer neuroprotective benefits. These compounds help combat oxidative stress and inflammation, with key polyphenols such as EGCG, curcumin, and resveratrol showing promise in slowing Alzheimer’s progression​.

A Unique Solution: BalanceOil+

BalanceOil+, a blend of omega-3s and polyphenols from unripe olives, is the only product combining these two brain-supportive nutrients. Taking BalanceOil+ may be an effective, convenient way to support brain health and lower Alzheimer’s risk, particularly when combined with monitoring through the BalanceTEST.

The Importance of Testing Your Omega-3

The BalanceTEST is essential for understanding your omega-3 and omega-6 levels, which can significantly impact cognitive health. This test measures your omega-3 percentage and the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio in your red blood cell membrane, offering a clear picture of your fatty acid profile. Research suggests that balanced omega-6 to omega-3 ratios, ideally around 3:1 or lower, are linked to lower inflammation and improved brain health outcomes.

When starting BalanceOil+, taking the BalanceTEST is crucial for establishing a baseline. After four months of consistent use, retesting can reveal improvements in your omega-3 percentage and omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, showcasing how effectively BalanceOil+ is supporting your health goals. Tracking these levels over time helps ensure you’re optimizing your intake for long-term cognitive health and Alzheimer’s prevention.
