Abstract
Food is a cause of concern due to its effect on health and disease. Diet affects the occurrence and progress of non-communicable diseases, including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), and cancers. The exact dietary composition that helps in the prevention of diseases is not known. A higher intake of processed foods, sugar-sweetened beverages, Trans and saturated fats, and a lower intake of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, and whole grains are generally considered as a poor-quality diet. Therefore, it is of interest to document the lipid profile in healthy human volunteers before and after consuming ghee. Fasting serum lipids were measured before and after the intervention. The effect of the intervention on all the subjects was analysed by comparing the post-intervention data. Data shows that TC and LDL-C are significantly decreased. However, other parameters showed insignificant change. The effect of the intervention on the normolipidaemia group was also analysed. There was no significant change. Thus, data shows that cow ghee consumption is not harmful to health.
