Abstract

Hypercholesterolemia is an emerging problem affecting population now a days and responsible for CVD, HTN, Diabetes. Not following Dincharya, Ritucharya, smoking, consuming alcohol, lack of exercise, stress, intake of fast food are one of common cause for hypercholesterolemia. Hypercholesterolemia can be compared in Ayurveda as Medodusti which is due to intake of excessive Sleshmavradhaka Ahara (heavy food) leads to Agnimandhya (diminished digestive fire) and in turn Medodusti that is abnormal accumulation of Meda (Cholesterol). Chirbilva in Sushruta Samhita mentioned as Kaphamedovishoshaka. Hence to trace out its hypercholesteremic effect present study is taken.
