Study the Effect of Some Medicinal Herbs on the Level of Cholesterol in the Blood

Abstract

Abstract Several plants have been used to treat and prevent various chronic conditions, including triglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia. Rosemary is one of these herbs, and it contains biological antioxidant mechanisms. Rosemary is a thorny shrub that grows throughout Europe and Southeast Asia. It has medicinal effects and is used in traditional medicine. The goal of this study was to see how rosemary leaves powder affected lipid profiles in experimental animals. The results showed that the total level of triglycerides and total level of cholesterol of the treated groups were lower. The group administered with herb powder (10 g) had considerably lower LDL-C levels, while the group given (10 g/day) had statistically significant increases in HDL-C levels. Finally, rosemary herb appears to improve dyslipidemia and its effects on liver enzymes in a method that relies on the addition of powder and lowers lipid levels by raising antioxidant levels, lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease in chronic condition.
