Abstract :
Obesity is detrimental issue worldwide; the therapeutic effects of some herbal plants due to their active constituents are proving to be effective against obesity. These characteristics of medicinal plants are also gaining attention in our society to fight with cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity. Abnormal bad lipid levels and increased body fat were considered risk factor for many diseases around the globe. Various researches point toward numerous activities of Cuminum cyminum, for instance, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-diabetic, and hypolipidemic. The current study is designed to investigate the chemical composition of cumin and determined 7.56±0.55% moisture content, 19.22±0.1% protein, fat 23.3±0.6%, 11.43±0.4%crude fiber, ash and NFE are calculated to be 7.08±0.08% and 30.55±0.29% mg/dL, respectively. And evaluate the significant impact on lipid profile and anthropometric measurements.
