In another study, Haidari and colleagues reported reduction of TC and LDL-c but no change in TG level due to caraway administration in diabetic rats (Haidari et al., 2011 ▶) (. It has also been reported that black caraway can improve hypercholesterolemia by balancing lipoprotein metabolism which means more LDL-c usage via increase in its receptors and/or increase in lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) (Khanna et al., 2002 ▶). Here, LCAT is linked to familial hypercholesterolemia.
