C15:0 has been shown to repair mitochondrial function and activate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors alpha and delta.

C15:0 has been proposed as an essential fatty acid due to the following:
*C15:0 is not readily made endogenously,
*lower C15:0 dietary intake and blood concentrations are associated with higher mortality and a poorer physiological state, and
*C15:0 has demonstrated activities and efficacy that parallel associated health benefits in humans.
