Mean ± Standard Deviation; n = 10
G₀: Control Normal rat group. G₁: Normal rat group fed on 125 mg
bael leaf extract. G₂: Normal rat group fed on 250 mg bael leaf extract
G_h0: Control Hyperlipidemic rat group. G_h1: Hyperlipidemic rat group fed on 125 mg
bael leaf extract. G_h2: Hyperlipidemic rat group fed on 250 mg bael leaf extract
HPL: Hyperlipidemic group of rats
Means showing different lower case letters (a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i) represent significant differences (p < 0.05) within control or HPL groups. Whereas, means showing different upper case letters (A, B, C) represent significant differences (p < 0.05) across day-0 through day-60
