The dried red ginger powder was only given to the treatment group at a dose of 3 grams per day for one month.. Both groups examined the LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein), trigliseride and HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) levels before and after the study.

From the research that has been done is known that the dried red ginger powder not significantly affect LDL, trigliserida and HDL (p LDL=0,261; p Trigliserida=0,966; p HDL= 0,175). Based on the statistical analysis, it is known that the dried red ginger powder not significantly affect LDL, trigliserida and HDL. Descriptive analysis showed a decrease in triglyceride levels.
