Abstract:
The effects of grape seed oil on serum total cholesterol (TC) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were investigated in experimental hypercholesterolemic rats. The grape seed oil containing about 74% linoleic acid, multivitamins and trace elements. Each animal was given 4 ml/kg BW grape seed oil mixed in high fat ration for 40 days. The results in two experiments showed that TC concentration in the serum of rats fed grape seed oil was markedly lowered as compared to control, but serum HDL-C was less lowered. Furthermore, the ratio of HDL-C to TC in the experimental group was also significantly higher than that of control.
