Abstract

This investigation aimed to study the hypocholesteroiemic action of doum palm and leek seeds by the ratio 3 and 5% and probable effect on the weight gain, internal organs weight, feed intake and feed efficiency ratio as calculated for albino rats, and also to clear out their possible therapeutic impacts on the levels of serum glucose, lipid profile, liver functions and kidneys functions via feeding trials. The obtained results showed that the best treatment showing maximum decreasing of serum glucose observed for leek seeds as 5% and for alkaline phosphatase was observed for doum palm seeds as5%. The seeds of doum palm was benefical for correcting the serumlipid profile. The best treatments of serum glutamic oxaloacetate transaminase was that of doum palm seeds and also for serum glutamic pyruvate transaminase. Leek seeds was the best for kidneys functions
