Abstract: Background: Unhealthy dietary habits play a crucial role in the development of heart disease. Blending of vegetable oils has been shown to improve lipid profile and inflammatory parameters. Method: This was a retrospective, observational, single center real-world study. Anonymized medical records with follow up visits(1 month) for subjects above 18 years were included in the study. This study aimed at determining the effect of a blend of rice bran oil, flaxseed oil and sunflower oil on the glycemic and lipid parameters. Results: A total of 73 records were included in the study, of which 56.16% subjects were female.The mean age was 45.67 ? 15.38 years. Atone month follow up, significant reductions in total cholesterol(TC) (p<0.001), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p<0.001), TC/ high density lipoprotein (HDL) ratio (p=0.048), low density lipoprotein (LDL)/HDL (p=0.041), total bilirubin (p=0.001), gamma-glutamyl transferase (p=0.021), alkaline phosphatase(p=0.025), creatinine(p<0.001), calcium (p=0.020), triiodothyronine (T3) (p<0.001), thyroxine (T4) (p<0.001) andthyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) (p=0.051) were observed. Conclusion: The blend of rice bran oil, flaxseed oil, and sunflower oil was found to bebeneficial in lowering the lipids levels, renal, hepatic, thyroid, and inflammatory markers in Indian population.
