Atherosclerotic cardiovascular dteeaaG(CAD) is the leading cause of death, and coronary artery disease is it5 major manifestation, Atherosclerosis is the end result of a multifactorial process that includes deposition of lipids, particularly cholesteryl ester, in (lie subintimal area of arteries Cichorium ifltybus (Compositae) has been os≪d for fevers, as a demulcent, for dy^p&psia, headache and jaundice, In order to approach pharmacotherapy of hyperlipidemia using a natural sources , Cichorium intybos was extracted with polar and nonpolar solvents, and we Avere examined protective activity on LDL oxidation, And also, electron donating effect by DPPH method was studied. The methanol and water extracts showed remarkable inhibition activity on hyperlipidemia. MeOH Ex. increased Electron donating ability according to concentration dependent.
