Abstract
Previous studies have suggested an association between vegetarian persons and non-vegetarian persons, although this relationship positive correlation significant. The present study was designed to investigate comparative study of lipid profile levels in vegan, vegetarian and non-vegetarian person. Cardiovascular disease and related mortality are strongly associated with elevated plasma concentration of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein. The present study was undertaken to compare the parameters of lipid metabolism i.e. cholesterol, tri-glyceride, high density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein of the age of 21-30 years healthy age and sex matched persons. The divided categories i.e. vegan, vegetarian and non- vegetarian persons. The study was done on 90 subjects in 30 were vegan and equal number of subjects in vegetarian and non-vegetarian groups. The vegan and vegetarian diet was significantly found to reduce the values of all the parameter lipid metabolism except HDL-Cholesterol (45.02± 9.595; p<0.0001).when these parameters were analyzed for the category of middle and old age, most of the lipid parameters total cholesterol (TC) including were significantly increase among Non-vegetarian (224.02 ± 18.85; p<0.0001 ) from this study, it can be concluded that along with diet, sex and age factor also influence parameters of lipid metabolism.
