The result reported here was showed that the oral treatment with the crude extract of Cordia myxia in concentration of 100mg /ml and therapeutic dose of 5ml/kg/day for four weaks reduced significantly (P < 0.001) the serum total cholesterol level from ( 491.07± 28.85 ) to ( 278.51± 26.98 ) mg/100ml. While no significant reduction was seen in total serum cholesterol level of the healthy rabbits. | ||
