The Finnish recommendation "Diagnosis and treatment of hypercholesterolaemia and other hyperlipidaemias in adults"(6) is mainly based on the traditional lipid hypothesis. The expediency of the recommendation should be reviewed in the light of the latest studies on diet, blood serum cholesterol and mortality. According to this information: 1. The mortality of the population increases both at high and at low cholesterol levels. The U-shape (Fig. 1) illustrating mortality vs. blood cholesterol level is different for men and women. Hence, the optimum blood cholesterol range should be set for men and for women separately. The present target value, below 5 mmol/1 for the entire Finnish population, is not reasonable. 2. The trans fatty acids formed in the catalytic hydrogenation process of polyunsaturated fatty acids have an unfavourable effect on blood cholesterol and may contribute to the occurrence of CHD. Thus the Finnish recommendation to increase the use of margarines is not well-founded. There are considerably better alternatives on the Finnish yellow fat market (Table 1).

Total Blood Cholesterol

Background: Cholesterol is a fat that does not dissolve easily in the blood. Most of the cholesterol in the blood is attached to specific protein carriers in the plasma in the form of lipoprotein complexes, which are soluble in water. Lipoprotein which carries cholesterol throughout the body. namely LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein) and HDL (High Density Lipoprotein). An increase in LDL in the body tends to form atherosclerosis. In contrast HDL cholesterol inhibits LDL oxidation so that atherosclerotic plaque formation does not occur. Obesity is one of the risk factors for atherosclerosis with manifestations of coronary heart disease. Handling of obesity has been done by many researchers and implemented. One ingredient from nature that serves as an alternative ingredient to lower blood cholesterol levels is avocado. Objective: To determine the effect of avocado administration on total blood cholesterol levels in the obese college students at the Medical Faculty of Nommensen HKBP University in 2019. Methods :This research is a pre-experimental study with a pre-post test design in one group. The sample was selected by purposive sampling method and obtained 20 obese students. Subjects consumed avocado juice every day for 14 days. Total cholesterol levels were measured before (day 0) and after (day 14) treatment. Results: The mean total cholesterol level of the subject's blood on the pretest examination was 188.10 mg / dL and the posttest examination was 180.05 mg / dL. There was a decrease in the average total blood cholesterol level of 8.05 mg / dl. Paired T-test showed that there was a non-significant decrease in mean total blood cholesterol level with a value of p = 0.068 (p <0.05). Conclusion: In this study there was no effect of avocado administration on total blood cholesterol levels in obese students.

Tetracera indica Merr. locally known as Mampelas is commonly used in traditional remedies. It believed to have the potential to cure hypercholesterolemia. The potential use of this plant to lower blood cholesterol level was understudied; therefore this study aimed to determine the effect of the infusion of fresh leaves of Tetracera indica to the blood cholesterol levels of mice. This research was true experimental design, a post-test only design with nonequivalent (control) groups. This study used 25 male mice divided into five categories, i.e., P0 mice were administered with 0 g of infusion, P1 mice with 2 g infusion, P2 mice with 5 g infusion, P3 mice with 10 g infusion, and P4 mice without Tetracera indica infusion but 10 mg of simvastatin. The treatment in all categories were given continuously for seven days. The results showed the mean of the blood cholesterol levels were 169.4 ± 59.37 mg/dL in P0, 121.8 ± 7.62 mg/dL in P1, 136.2 ± 15.69 mg/dL in P2, 110.6 ± 37 , 01 mg/dL in P3 , and 179,0 ± 35,24 mg/dL in P4. Kruskal Wallis test was calculated to determine the difference of blood cholesterol level among all groups, and it reported p < 0.05. The results of this study showed that infusion of Tetracera indica leaf was significantly lowered the level of blood cholesterol in mice.

The main goal of this experiment was to study the effect of milk fat depression, induced by supplementing diet with plant oils, on the bovine fat metabolism, with special interest in cholesterol levels. For this purpose 39 cows were divided in three groups and fed different rations: a control group (C) without any oil supplementation and two groups with soybean oil (SO) or rapeseed oil (RO) added to the partial mixed ration (PMR). A decrease in milk fat percentage was observed in both oil feedings with a higher decrease of −1·14 % with SO than RO with −0·98 % compared with the physiological (−0·15 %) decline in the C group. There was no significant change in protein and lactose yield. The daily milk cholesterol yield was lower in both oil rations than in control ration, while the blood cholesterol level showed an opposite variation. The milk fatty acid pattern showed a highly significant decrease of over 10 % in the amount of saturated fatty acids (SFA) in both oil feedings and a highly significant increase in mono (MUFA) and poly (PUFA) unsaturated fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) included. The results of this experiment suggest that the feeding of oil supplements has a high impact on milk fat composition and its significance for human health, by decreasing fats with a potentially negative effect (SFA and cholesterol) while simultaneously increasing others with positive (MUFA, PUFA, CLA).

AbstrakMasyarakat menggunakan berbagai cara pengolahan sebelum mengonsumsi telur yang dapat berpengaruh terhadap kadar zat gizi yang terkandung didalamnya, termasuk kadar kolesterol dalam telur yang juga akan mempengaruhi kadar kolesterol dalam darah. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menentukan pengaruh pemberian berbagai olahan telur terhadap kadar kolesterol total darah mencit. Penelitian menggunakan 24 ekor mencit (Mus musculus) jantan albino umur 3 – 4 bulan dengan berat badan sekitar 30 – 40 gram. Jenis kandang yang digunakan adalah kandang kotak (box) sebanyak 24 unit dengan ukuran 28x30x20 cm. Metode yang digunakan ialah eksperimen dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) terdiri dari 6 unit perlakuan, yaitu unit perlakuan K (Kontrol), unit perlakuan A (telur mentah), unit perlakuan B (telur goreng), unit perlakuan C (telur rebus), unit perlakuan D (telur setengah matang) dan unit perlakuan E (telur asin). Dosis perlakuan adalah 1,56ml/20gram berat badan/mencit dan masing-masing perlakuan diulang 4 kali. Parameter yang diukur adalah kadar kolesterol total darah mencit. Hasil analisis keragaman menunjukan bahwa pemberian berbagai olahan telur memberikan pengaruh berbeda sangat nyata (P<0.01) terhadap kadar kolesterol total darah mencit. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa rerata kadar kolesterol total darah mencit setelah diberikan berbagai olahan telur adalah telur mentah 106.96 mg/dl, telur goreng 143.53 mg/dl, telur rebus 194.50 mg/dl, telur setengah matang 180.91 mg/dl, dan telur asin 158.27 mg/dl.Kata kunci: olahan telur, kadar kolesterol total darah, mencit AbstractPeople use various methods of processing before consumption eggs which can affect the levels of nutrients contained in, including cholesterol content which can also affect the levels of total cholesterol in blood. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of giving a variety of processed egg on total cholesterol levels of mice. The experiment used 24 male albino mice (Mus nusculus) age 3 – 4 months old with 30 – 40 grams of body weight. The den used was 24 units of box with size of 28x30x20 cm. The experiment used Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consist of 6 treatment units which was K (control), A (raw egg), B (fried egg), C (boiled egg), D (soft-boiled egg), and E (salted egg). The dosage was  1.56 ml/20 grams of body weight/mice and 4 replication for each treatment units. The parameter measured was total blood cholesterol level of mice.  Results of analysis of variance showed that giving of a variety of processed egg gave highly  significant  effect (P <0.01) on total blood cholesterol levels of mice. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the average total blood cholesterol levels of mice after giving of various preparations of eggs is as follows: raw eggs 106.96 mg / dl, fried eggs 143.53 mg / dl, boiled eggs 194.50 mg / dl, soft-boiled eggs 180.91 mg / dl, and salted egg 158.27 mg / dl..Keywords: processed egg, total blood cholesterol level,  mice
