Brief Summary  

Hyperlipidemia can be caused by life style changes and dietary habits. According to NIN and ICMR INDIA B data, the prevalence of Hyperlipidemia is high in India. . So, the burden of hyperlipidemia related diseases in India is alarmingly high and is a serious concern. Indians are not only at high risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, they usually get the disease at an early age, have a more severe form of the disease and have poorer outcome as compared to the western populations. The treatment of diseases secondary to dyslipidemia remains costly. For all these reasons, prevention should take priority.

As the previous researches were done only on Direct Oral Activated charcoal consumption, so now in this research study a Food product is made which is incorporated with Oral Activated Charcoal with the proportions of 5 grams and 10 grams. According to the Asia Pacific Journal of Multidisciplinary Research it was said that Activated charcoal can be incorporated in the food product as an additive for beneficiary effects .To lower the blood lipids,triglycerides and cholesterol Oral activated charcoal has found to be effective.

1.Preparation and formulating the product with oral activated charcoal.

2 .Standardization and sensory evaluation of Incorporated product with oral activated charcoal .The product that has higher acceptability based on sensory evaluation would be supplemented for experimental group.

3.Participants would be divided into two groups - Experimental Group - which would be supplemented with oral activated charcoal incorporated product and Control Group - which would be prescribed Diet and Lifestyle modification for the period of two and a half months.

4.Data collection would be done using direct personal interview method from a structured questionaire containing socio demographic details.

5.Anthropometric measurements used to evaluate the participants present nutritional status are - Weight ,Height ,MUAC,Body fat composition.

6.The biochemical parameters that would be assessed alipid profile.

7.For Experimental Group - Supplementation of Oral activated charcoal incorporated product from 0-4 weeks , 4-8 weeks and 8-10 weeks withdrawal period.

8.For Control Group - They would be prescribed Diet and Lifestyle modification from 0-8 weeks and 8-10 weeks withdrawal period.
