Alterations in the levels and composition of lipids in your blood can lead to dyslipidemia. Dyslipidemiai could be congenital (by birth) or a result of an unhealthy lifestyle (1).
An imbalance in your lipid profile is linked to atherosclerosisi , diabetes, and obesity. There are many plant-based remedies to manage dyslipidemia and other lipid disorders.
Animal studies report lipid-lowering properties in moringa leaves (1). Moringa leaf extracts brought down total cholesterol levels in animals on a high-fat diet. In rat studies, the treated animals showed a 14% reduction in total cholesterol levels as compared to a 30% increase in the levels in animals left untreated.
Moringa leaves also increase the levels of good cholesterol (HDL) and balance your lipid profile (1).
