It has been shown that eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) reduces platelet aggregation and is useful to prevent thrombosis. We examined the plasma polyunsaturated fatty acids of nineteen patients with cardiovascular disorders but without hyperlipidemia or diabetes mellitus before and six months after our hospital diet. Relative percent of EPA on total plasma lipids increased from 1.98±0.70 to 2.72±0.85 but other fatty acids did not change. The 20:5/20:4 ratio also increased from 0.40±0.12 to 0.54±0.17. Serum cholesterol reduced from 192.7±37.3 to 173.8±32.6. These studies show that hospital diet containg rich fish oil is useful to change EPA percent on total plasma lipids.
