Purpose of this research was to determine the effect of green tea on LDL levels in diabetes mellitus rats. Purpose : Purpose of this research was to determine the effect of green tea drinking on triglyceride and total cholesterol serum levels in diabetes melitus rats. Methods : This research was an experimental research conducted on 27 male rats. Rats were divided into 5 groups (negative control, positive control, and tretament group). Positive and treatment group were injected by alloxan (150 mg/kg BW), and treatment group were given green tea drinking with 3 doses (27 mg/200 g BW/day, 54 mg/200 g BW/day, and 81 mg/200 g BW/day) for four weeks. In the last day of research, blood were collected and triglyceride and total cholesterol serum level were examined Results : Green tea drinking decreased both triglyceride and total cholesterol serum level significantly compared to positive control group. Conclusion : Green tea drinking has a lowering effect on triglyceride and total cholesterol serum level in diabetes melitus
