A scary cholesterol panel can either trigger panic or spark a smarter plan. We chose the latter. After my husband’s labs lit up with sky-high triglycerides and lackluster HDL, we went all-in on a functional strategy—no statins, no guesswork. The result? A 237-point drop in triglycerides and better lipid ratios powered by high-quality omega-3s, the newly recognized essential fatty acid C15, and a commitment to testing what matters.We break down the real story behind “healthy fats”: why omega-3 vs omega-6 balance drives inflammation, how fish oil quality and form change absorption, and what sets Orthomega apart on purity, dose, and sourcing. Then we introduce Fatty 15 (C15), the membrane-strengthening fatty acid turning heads for metabolic resilience, lower CRP, and healthier gene expression. Think of EPA/DHA as the inflammation tamers and C15 as the cell-armor—together they support brain performance, mood stability, skin barrier function, and cardiovascular health.Data turns supplements into strategy, so we walk through the omega-3 index, the omega 6:3 ratio, and C15 status—simple markers that explain fatigue, brain fog, and stubborn lipids even when routine labs look “normal.” We also tackle the statin question: how blocking cholesterol synthesis can sap CoQ10 and energy, and why fixing gut health, hormones, and inflammation often shifts lipids more sustainably. You’ll leave with practical steps: how to choose clean omegas, why to take them with food, and when to retest to confirm progress.If you’re ready to move from fear to function and build a plan that works with your biology, hit play.
