    OmegaQuant Launches Vitamin D Test

    The makers of the first commercial-grade EPA and DHA index test have branched out to another vital nutrient.

    OmegaQuant, the makers of a commercially-available omega-3s index testing kit, launched a vitamin D test with a sample collection kit that allows individuals to test themselves from home. The test requires just a finger stick and a few drops of blood for analysis, similarly to its omega-3s blood test.

    The company is originally known for creating the commercially-available test for omega-3s in response to the widespread deficiencies in long-chain fatty acids that exist in most consumers, and the fact that it is not standard practice for general healthcare practitioners to conduct routine testing of omega-3s intake. 
     
    Vitamin D is well-known for its role in maintaining bone health, however, research over the past several years provides evidence that it is crucial to a wide range of other health benefits, including cardiovascular health, immune function, and obesity. As a leading vitamin for which there is widespread deficiency, demand is high among consumers for a way to determine how much more vitamin D they should introduce into their diet.
     
    According to OmegaQuant, many experts believe that having a vitamin D blood concentration level of at least 30 ng/mL is ideal for most people. Improving one’s vitamin D status can be achieved in as quickly as a few months by increasing sun exposure, or increasing dietary intake either through foods or supplements, they said.
     
    “Our new vitamin D test works the same way our omega-3 tests do – with a simple finger stick,” Jason Polreis, CEO of OmegaQuant, said. “No blood draw needed. No doctor necessary. No hidden lab fees. And you can collect your sample safely, in the privacy of your own home.”
     
    “We think that vitamin D holds just as much importance as a nutrient as omega-3s, and it suffers from the same issues in terms of intake in that the majority of individuals are falling short. But how short? The only way to know is to test.”
