In chemical structure, timnodonic acid is a carboxylic acid having 20-carbon chain and 5 cis double bonds. \u00a0The first double bond is situated at the third carbon from the omega end. Timnodonic acid is a precursor for various substances which are crucial in human nutrition especially fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). It is a precursor for thromboxane-3, prostaglandin-3, and leukotriene-5 eicosanoids. It is both a precursor as well as hydrolytic breakdown product of eicosapentaenoyl ethanolamide.<\/p>\n<p>The diet with high eicosapentaenoic acid reduces serum lipid concentration, prevents platelet aggregation, lowers incidence of cardiovascular disorders and inhibit arachidonic acid conversion into thromboxane-2 and prostaglandin-2 families.
