Figure 1

Triglycerides, cholesterol, HDL and LDL levels measured in plasma of the different studied rat groups. Triglycerides and cholesterol levels increased after ischemia in rat’s plasma. Treatment with flaxseed separately and in combination with exercise attenuated the increase in triglycerides and cholesterol levels. HDL slightly decreased after ischemia in plasma of untreated rats and flaxseed treated rats. Combined treatment with flaxseed and exercise markedly increased HDL level in rat’s plasma. LDL slightly decreased after ischemia in plasma. Treatment with flaxseed separately and in combination with exercise markedly decreased LDL levels in rat’s plasma. Data from plasma of ten rats in each group are shown as mean ± S.D.
