TEST-BASED WELLNESS FOR REAL LIFE
You pay attention to what you eat, how you move, and the supplements you take—but how do you know whether your body is getting what it needs?
Many of us choose supplements based on general recommendations or how we hope they will help. But without testing, it can be difficult to know where you’re starting, whether your nutritional balance needs support, or if your current routine is making a measurable difference.
As farmers, we’ve learned that you can’t always tell what the soil needs simply by looking at it. Testing gives us information that helps us make more intentional choices—and we believe our bodies deserve that same thoughtful approach.
The BalanceTest is a simple at-home finger-prick test that gives you a clearer picture of your fatty acid profile, including your omega-6 to omega-3 balance. Because when you have real information, you can make more informed choices for your wellness.
☐ Fatigue
☐ Bloating
☐ Brain fog
☐ Joint pain
☐ Poor sleep
☐ Cravings
☐ Skin flare-ups
☐ Anxiety or irritability
Many of these symptoms can be connected to inflammation in the body. These experiences can have many different causes, but they are often signals worth paying attention to. Your body isn’t working against you. It’s communicating with you.
The food we eat, our stress levels, sleep, movement, and nutrient intake can all influence how we feel. Instead of adding another supplement and hoping for the best, what if you had a way to measure an important part of your nutritional balance?
A simple finger prink blood test sent to an independent lab in Norway will determine your Omega 6 to 3 ratios.
How many are you dealing with right now?
What Is the BalanceTest?
The BalanceTest is an at-home dried blood spot test that measures 11 fatty acids in your blood and reports the findings across six fatty acid-related markers—including your omega-6 to omega-3 balance and omega-3 levels.
You collect a few drops of blood from your fingertip and mail the sample using the instructions included with your test. Your sample is analyzed confidentially by an independent laboratory in Oslo, Norway. You then receive your personal results online, along with information to help you better understand your fatty acid profile.
No guessing. No wondering whether your current routine is making a measurable difference. Just information that can help you take a more intentional approach to your wellness.
The BalanceTest is a wellness test and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. Always consult your healthcare professional regarding health concerns or changes to your nutrition or supplement routine.

What is Balance Oil?
BalanceOil+ is a food supplement made with omega-3s from small, wild-caught fish, extra virgin olive oil rich in polyphenols, and vitamin D3. It is designed to support omega-3 levels and help maintain a balanced omega-6 to omega-3 ratio.
What makes this approach different for us is the ability to test first, follow a consistent routine, and test again. Rather than relying only on how we feel, we can use our results to see what has changed over time.
Everyone’s nutritional needs and health circumstances are different. We would be happy to share what we have learned, explain the options, and help you decide whether this approach is right for you.
Our Personal Journey
Earlier in 2026, Keith experienced a health crisis that left him able to work on the farm for only about an hour at a time. Much of the rest of his day was spent inside and in pain. We began wondering whether we would have to close the farm because Michelle could not manage it alone.
At the same time, Michelle found herself looking at a cupboard full of supplements and asking a simple but important question: Are these actually working for me?
When a friend introduced us to test-based nutrition, the idea immediately connected with the way we had approached our soil for years—test, learn, and respond to what is actually needed.
Since making changes to his personal wellness routine, Keith has experienced meaningful progress and, by July 2026, had returned to working full days on the farm. This is our personal experience, not a promise of anyone else’s results, but it gave us hope and a desire to share what we have learned.
