Did you know that your diet could be holding back your productivity? The balance of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids in your body plays a crucial role in how well you focus, handle stress, and maintain energy throughout the day. Let’s explore how this works and how you can take control of your health for better performance.
What are Omega-6 and Omega-3 fatty acids?
Omega-6 and omega-3 are essential fats your body needs to function properly. However, they need to be in balance. Modern diets, high in processed foods and vegetable oils, often have too much omega-6 and not enough omega-3. This imbalance can lead to increased inflammation, affecting brain function and energy levels.
Why does this matter for productivity?
When your omega-6 to omega-3 ratio is out of balance, it can have several negative effects on your productivity:
Mental Clarity: Omega-3s support better brain communication, improving focus and problem-solving. Too much omega-6, however, can lead to brain fog.
Energy: A balanced omega ratio helps your body stay energised throughout the day. Imbalances can make you feel fatigued.
Stress and Mood: Omega-3s help your body manage stress and improve mood, keeping you motivated and engaged.
How to measure and restore balance
Find Your Ratio
The first step to improving your omega balance is understanding where you currently stand. The test is a simple, at-home blood test that shows your omega-6 to omega-3 ratio and highlights areas for improvement.

Once you know your ratio, you can start restoring balance. Balance Oil+ is a supplement designed to adjust and maintain the right omega-6 to omega-3 ratio. It’s made with high-quality fish oil and extra virgin olive oil to maximise effectiveness.
