There are TWO Vit D tests;
The ergocalciferol is the storage form, and the form given by doctors to raise levels...50,000 IU per cap D2 (ergocalciferol) The D3 is an separate test.

So I would supplement what shows up low then.
Not low in Omega-3's. You are lucky! Did they test magnesium?

Under Repletion Suggestions, they suggest the following:
600 mg BID of EPA and DHA in Omega 3 fatty acids 200 mcg of Chromium nicotinate or glycinate for 90 days 50 mg BID calcium as citrate, malate, ascorbateor glycinate 600 mg daily of NAC 200 iu Vitamin E 50 mcg Selenium 150 mg daily CoQ10 50 mg daily Lipoic Acid 250 mg daily Vitamin c I am also going to take 50,000 iu D3 once a week for a month and have the D3 test again. Magnesium came in at 42% with reference range 37% and above. Ann Ann |

That is a really low calcium recommendation!
Where is the recommendation for oleic acid? You will want to choose NATURAL vit E products. The label will say natural. (synthetic only has one form of Vit E...which normally in nature comes in a mixture). 50mg of lipoic acid is low, very, if referring to alpha form. If r-lipoic, then that is better and in range. The magnesium is great for most Americans! Most are low in this mineral. Not too bad... compared to most!

This is interesting. I have had extensive blood work but I can't recall having fatty acids checked. I will have to look back. Was this just an internist who did these tests? Or a speciality doctor?
