HS-Omega 3 Index Blood Test Shows Average Result With Trans Percentage .8%. Should I Worry ?

I recently had a HS-Omega 3 Index blood test I did at home. The results say my Omega 3s are average, but in the area called Trans my percentage was .8%, putting me in the top 1 percent. I m 5 6 and weigh 118 and exercise a lot. Should I worry about this? Other rankings seemed OK. For instance, I was in the 88th percentile for monounsaturated (Total 19%) and in the 68th percentile for Omega 6s (total: 37.4%). My saturated fat was 35.7%, putting me in the second percentile. Is this also possibly worrisome? Never mind! I checked the FAQs. I thought I was in the worst percentile for trans fat but I'm in the best. Ditto for saturated.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Let me tell you some fact regarding the health, most important concern would be how you are doing does your health cope with routine of your life, if you are very much healthy do not have any medical issue, then I always advise my patients never ever touch the medicine or think about any test unless there is some sing for it, whatever test you do, what will happen next after taking the test, that will not come in test neither no body tells about it, all such test which has no value are more worrisome particularly their end results, if you are healthy have no disease then just forget about it and enjoy the life have great day.
