Why consume BalanceOil+?
BalanceOil+ is a dietary supplement combining:
Fish oils from small wild pelagic fish (anchovies, sardines, mackerel), providing the long-chain omega-3s EPA & DHA.
Extra virgin olive oil (pre-harvest olives, Picual variety) rich in oleic acid (omega-9) and polyphenols (antioxidants).
Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol).
Natural antioxidants (e.g. tocopherols) to protect against oxidation.
They also offer a test (“BalanceTest”) that measures your omega-6:omega-3 ratio and monitor how that changes with supplementation.
Key Benefits & Distinguishing Features
1. Omega-6 : Omega-3 Rebalancing
They claim that most people have a high omega-6 to omega-3 ratio (e.g. ~25:1 in the U.S.), which can contribute to inflammation, etc. BalanceOil+ is designed to help bring that ratio down (they say most people achieve a ratio below ~3:1 after about 120 days using their product) assuming correct dosing.
2. Combined Oil + Antioxidant Protection
The inclusion of extra virgin olive oil polyphenols plus natural antioxidants is meant to reduce oxidation of omega-3s so they stay more effective. Oxidized omega-3s are less useful (and possibly harmful), so this is a point many supplement companies emphasize. BalanceOil+ is better protecting the omega-3s in the product and while inside your body/cells.
3. Natural Triglyceride Form
They state that the fish oil is in a natural triglyceride form rather than ethyl ester or more heavily processed forms. Some suggest the natural/triglyceride form is better absorbed.
4. Additional Ingredients (Vitamin D3 etc.)
The inclusion of vitamin D3 and the antioxidant polyphenols gives multi-functional support (immune, bone, etc.), beyond just EPA/DHA.
5. Quality & Purity
Using small wild fish, testing for contaminants, certifications, etc. These are typical claims for higher-end omega-3s, but the olive oil addition and antioxidant content are part of what BalanceOil+ uses to distinguish itself.
6. Dosing Adjusted by Body Weight
They recommend dosing based on body weight, which can help get more precise with how much omega-3 (and supportive ingredients) one is getting.
What “Regular” Omega-3 Supplements Might Lack / How BalanceOil+ Can Be Advantageous
Comparing to a generic omega-3 supplement (say fish oil only, or omega-3 capsules without extra antioxidants), here’s where BalanceOil+ offer stronger or different features:
Feature Generic Omega-3 Supplement BalanceOil+
EPA + DHA content Many are good here; dosage matters BalanceOil+ provides relatively high doses, and aims to bring EPA/DHA to healthy levels tied to ratio improvements.
Protection from oxidation Some use antioxidants; many may not include olive polyphenols or comparable compounds BalanceOil+ emphasizes antioxidant protection (olive polyphenols + tocopherols) to preserve omega-3 integrity.
Uptake / absorption Some products use forms that are less bioavailable (ethyl esters, etc.) or have less supporting ingredients; also capsule vs liquid can affect absorption Liquid formulation, triglyceride form, plus supporting olive oil may help with absorption / integration.
Ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 Generic products won’t necessarily help with omega-6 intake; often the diet has high omega-6, making it hard to shift ratio just by taking omega-3 BalanceOil+ is built around helping shift that ratio over time (assuming continued use, correct dose, and diet).
Additional nutrients Many omega-3 supplements include only fish oil; some include vitamin D etc., but often separately BalanceOil+ packages fish oil + vitamin D3 + antioxidants in one product.
Limitations / Things to Consider (“Not Unique Advantages”
Should Someone Prefer BalanceOil+ Over Other Omega-3s?
Here are situations where BalanceOil+ might have stronger appeal:
If your diet is heavy in omega-6 (vegetable oils, processed foods) and you want help bringing that ratio down.
If you want a more “holistic” supplement: fish oil + antioxidants + vitamin D in one.
If you care about purity, natural form, and want lower risk of oxidation of the supplement.
If you prefer liquid vs capsules, and are okay with measuring dose by weight, etc.
