Hypercholesterolemia is one of the most severe health problems many people may face, causing complications such as atherosclerosis or blood clots. This study aimed to use turnip roots and leaves on hypercholesterolemia. Forty-eight male albino rats weighting 150 ±10 g were used in this study and divided into eight groups; each group contained six rats, control negative and control positive were fed on basal diet., The third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth groups fed standard diets containing 2.5, 5, 2.5, 5, and 2.5, 5 % (turnip roots, turnip leaves, and mixture of turnip roots and leaves ) powder, respectively. Rats were treated with 1.5% cholesterol, and 0.2% bile salts to induce hypercholesterolemia. The results showed improved liver enzymes (ALT), AST, and blood lipid profiles such as LDL-c, HDL-c, VIDL-c, and kidney function (urea, uric acid, and creatinine). The best results were recorded, especially the mixture of turnip roots and leaves powder (5%). In conclusion, hypercholesterolemic rats treated with (a 5%) mixture of turnip roots and leaves powder had improved lipid profile (HDL) and liver functions.
