This study investigated the effect of Dolichos lablab extract on the lipid metabolism of rats fed a high fat and cholesteroldiet. S-D male rats (n=48) were given 40, 400, or 4000 mg/kg of Dolichos lablab extract and fed a high fat and highcholesterol diet for four weeks (DL-HFC group). As a result, serum levels of total lipids, total cholesterol, and triglycerideswere higher in the high fat and high cholesterol group (HFC-group) than the control, and significant differences wereobserved between the control and the DL-HFC (40, 400, 4000 mg/kg) group. The fat absorption rate increased with a highfat diet feeding, but was higher in the DL-HFC (40, 400, 4000 mg/kg) group.
