simultaneous histopathological studies carried out. The indigenous agent was capable of correcting the fatty changes produced by the fat containing diet to a considerable extent. The efficacy in lowering plasma cholesterol and triglyceride was comparable to that of Gemfibrozil, as shown by the statistical analysis of the results obtained |
