Not sure yet whether to order? Here are factual answers to the questions people ask first: what the test measures, what the subscription involves, and what my own results were.

What the BalanceTest measures
A test you take at home to have the fatty acids in your blood analyzed. A few drops from the fingertip, dried on a card, analyzed by the independent Vitas laboratory in Norway. Results arrive online in 10 to 20 days: omega 6:3 ratio, omega 3 index, protection value and a profile of 11 fatty acids. To read a report: how to read your BalanceTest results.

Who analyzes, who sees
Your sample is identified by a code, not by your name. Your results are viewed online with that code, not your name. The laboratory states that it destroys samples after analysis.
In Canada
The kit is delivered anywhere in Canada, from Halifax to Vancouver. BalanceOil+, sold with the test in the kit, is a natural health product licensed by Health Canada (NPN 80119498): the Natural Product Number appears on the packaging and on the official shop page. The BalanceTest itself is a test you take yourself to have your fatty acids analyzed, for information only.
My four tests, as they are
| Test | Omega 6:3 ratio (target below 3:1) | Omega 3 index (target at least 8%) |
|---|---|---|
| May 2025 | 48:1 | 1.6% |
| September 2025 | 5.6:1 | 5.2% |
| March 2026 | 8.8:1 | 4.9% |
| August 2026 | 3.3:1 | 6.8% |
My personal results, published even when they go back up. They say nothing about what you will measure: every blood sample is different.
You know what you are ordering. Now measure.
The test and the kit are ordered from the official Zinzino Canada shop, at the shop price, shown before any payment. I am a Zinzino Independent Partner: an order placed through my links may earn me a commission, at no extra cost to you.
Frequently asked questions
Where can I read Zinzino reviews?
I do not publish customer reviews. Terms of sale are those of the official Zinzino shop, available before any order.
I already take omega 3, is the test useful?
Yes: it gives your omega 6:3 ratio and omega 3 index as they are today, and a second test then shows how they change.
Is the test a diagnosis?
No. It is an analysis for information only. If you are under medical treatment, ask your doctor before starting a supplement.
Who handles the order and delivery?
The official Zinzino shop, which handles secure payment, delivery and customer service.
