The research design was quasi-experimental with a pre-post test design. The total sample was 30 people, selected using purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out for 21 days by recalling 3 x 24 hours of laboratory examination of profil lipid levels (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglycerides). Statistical tests used Paired and Independent T-Tests. Based on the results of the study, there was a significant difference in total cholesterol levels at the beginning and end of the treatment sample (p 0.05), and there was a significant difference in triglyceride levels at the beginning and end of the treatment sample (p 0.05). There was no difference in the initial HDL and LDL levels with the final HDL and LDL levels of the treatment samples (p 0.05). There was no significant difference in the initial profillipid and triglyceride levels compared to the final control samples (p 0.05). There was no significant difference in the final prolipid and triglyceride levels between the treatment samples and the control samples (p 0.05).
