<b>Comparative effects of olive oil and <i>Nigella sativa</i> oil on mice lipid profiles</b>
Olive oil and <i>N. sativa</i> oil can significantly improve blood lipid levels in mice, particularly by lowering atherogenic lipids and increasing HDL. These changes result in favorable cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein/high-density lipoprotein ratios, which play an important role in lowering cardiovascular disease risk and highlight the potential therapeutic and possibly protective benefits of these oils in managing lipid disorders.
