Resolve, don’t just reduce
Most people think of omega-3 as a way to “calm” inflammation. The biology is more interesting: your body has an active, built-in program to resolve it — and omega-3 is the raw material it runs on.
It’s more widespread than you’d think
Three numbers that describe modern health — and they point in the same direction.
The typical fatty-acid ratio in the modern Western diet — when human physiology evolved closer to 1:1.1
The average in U.S. adults, with more than half below 4%. A range linked to well-being sits closer to 8%.2
Only about 1 in 8 U.S. adults is in optimal metabolic health — low-grade inflammation runs underneath much of the rest.3
Too much omega-6, too little omega-3, and a slow-burning inflammation that never fully switches off. That’s the backdrop.
A different way to think about inflammation
What if the goal isn’t to suppress the response, but to help the body finish it?
Reduction
- Turns the signal down
- Focuses on dampening the response
- Works like a brake — pressed from the outside
- Doesn’t, by itself, clear or repair
Resolution
- Actively switches the response off
- A programmed, built-in process
- Clears debris and supports tissue repair
- Runs on omega-3-derived signals
Two molecules, two jobs
Resolution is a substrate and a signal working together.
EPA & DHA
The two long-chain omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil. They’re the raw material your body draws on to make its own resolution signals. Without enough substrate on board, the process simply has less to work with.
SPMs
Specialized Pro-resolving Mediators — resolvins, protectins and maresins. The molecules your body builds from EPA and DHA to actively bring the inflammatory response to a close and support tissue repair.

Resolvins · Protectins · Maresins
Active clearing & return to balance
This is the mechanism first mapped by Prof. Charles Serhan’s lab at Harvard: inflammation doesn’t just fade — it’s actively switched off by pro-resolving mediators made from omega-3.4
This isn’t faith. It’s a number.
Unlike most of what you take, your omega-3 status can be measured objectively — the Omega-3 Index: the percentage of EPA + DHA in your red blood cell membranes.5
Know your starting point — then watch it move
You don’t have to take it on trust. Under 4% is low, and 8% is the widely cited “desirable” mark — but for your body to really run like a rocket, you’re aiming for 10–12%. Measure where you start, give it real substrate, and watch the number climb.
It’s measured with a simple finger-prick blood test — a few drops, at home.
A serious omega-3 — and SPMs
Not all fish oil is the same — and real resolution takes more than fish oil. Three things set ours apart.
combined EPA + DHA concentration in a re-esterified triglyceride form your body absorbs efficiently — not a diluted 30% oil.
built on LIPINOVA®, a patented pro-resolution technology that is standardized to measured SPM precursors — what sets our pro-resolution range apart.
total oxidation kept below the GOED Voluntary Monograph limit, with enteric protection so the oil stays intact until it’s absorbed.6
And for the signal itself: a high-potency omega-3 gives your body the substrate. Our SPMs, built on LIPINOVA®, deliver the measured precursors your body converts into them — 18-HEPE, 17-HDHA and 14-HDHA. Substrate and signal, working together.
The substrate your body actually uses
