Abstract

High cholesterol is generally suffered by obese people, but it is possible that thin people can also experience it, especially by consuming foods that are low in fiber but high in fat. Cholesterol can settle on artery walls, so blood flow to the heart, brain, and other body parts can be blocked. There are several herbal ways that can reduce cholesterol levels in the blood, namely by administering avocado leaf extract and avocado fruit, soursop leaf extract, red dragon fruit, rambutan leaf extract and chayote stew as alternative therapy so as not to depend on synthetic drugs. The method used in writing this journal uses a literature review approach. The process of collecting journals is done by searching for literature sources based on specified criteria. The inclusion criteria taken include: journals published in the last 10 years. And the research sample used was obtained from Google Scholar. The results of previous studies explained that cholesterol can not only be treated by using synthetic drugs that come from a doctor's prescription but can also use herbal medicines such as avocado, red dragon fruit, and soursop leaf water extract.
