Abstract

The potential of hyperlipidemia to engage in the pathology of atherosclerotic diseases such as coronary heart disease, which dominates the scenario of diseases causing morbidity and mortality in the world. Hyperlipidemia is defined as elevated serum levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, or both. It is characterized by abnormally elevated lipid concentrations in blood caused by impaired lipid and lipoprotein metabolism and has the potential to cause a variety of complications such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, hypertension, atherosclerosis, and so on. Hyperlipidemia is classified as Medoroga in Ayurveda. The results obtained for the lipid profile parameter demonstrated a significant change. The difference in total serum cholesterol is 36 mg/dl, serum triglycerides is 32 mg/dl, serum LDL is 40 mg/dl, serum VLDL is 15 mg/dl and serum HDL is -3 mg/dl.
