How's Your Omega-3 level?

Bill Harris is President of OmegaQuant, LLC, a Sioux Falls laboratory. He’s also on the USD Medical School faculty and spent several years with Sanford Research as the Director of Cardiovascular Health. His recent study published in the Journal of Clinical Lipidology found that people with high blood levels of fish oil were 35 percent less likely to develop heard disease than people with low levels. And your Omega-3 level is a better predictor of disease risk than cholesterol.
