Hypercholesterolemia is a condition where the concentration of cholesterol in the blood increases beyond normal values. One of the plants recommended for consumption by cholesterol sufferers is bay leaves. This is because bay leaves contain various active compounds such as flavonoids which can prevent the oxidation of Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) and prevent the deposition of fat on blood vessel walls. Saponins can prevent fat absorption, increase excretion in the urine so that fat does not accumulate.
