Abstract
Natural dietary modifications are charismatically used as a first line therapy for treating several
diseases. The present study was conducted to examine the antihyperlipidemic effect of herbs
Psyllium Husk and Moringa oleifera in rabbits fed with high fat diet. A total of (n=30) rabbits
were subjected to five treatment groups with (n=6) animals in each group. The Group I-V were
kept under different dose administrations. After eight weeks of experimentation, the blood and
tissue samples were tested for biochemical and histopathological analysis. Histopathological
studies revealed that MO and PH are hepato-protective and nephro-protective as well. The
findings were collaborated with the facts that MO and PH exhibited therapeutic properties against
serum lipid parameters. The LDL, TC, TG and Glucose levels were suppressed to significant
value P=0.05. It was also inferred that MO and PH elevated the concentrations of good
cholesterol HDL. It was suggested that both herbs possessed bioactive compounds like
antioxidants that are curative and preventive in nature and might be helpful in lowering
secondary hyperlipidemia.
