Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the extracts of Daucus carota L. could lead to a beneficial outcomes on serum lipid and antioxidative enzyme activity in ovariectomized rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to one control and three diet groups; carrot seed, carrot root and estrogen after ovariectomy operation. Experimental diets were fed for 8 weeks. The GOT activity was decreased in the carrot extracts treated group than in the control group. The carrot seed extracts treated group showed the lowest SOD and catalase activities compare to other groups. Serum total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol decreased in the carrot seed extracts group than in the control group. From these results, it suggest that carrot seed extracts positively influenced on serum lipid and antioxidative enzyme activity.
