Abstract
The aim of this study was to conduct the possible antihypertensive effects of basil(Ocimumbasilicum) and cloves(Syzygiumaromaticum) in high blood pressure rats. The rats (n=30) were divided into two main groups, the first main group (n=6 rats) fed on basal diet as a control negative group. The second main group (n=24rats) received high sodium diet for 8 weeks to induce hypertensive in rats. After these periods, the high sodium diet group was divided into (4) subgroups (n=6 rats for each), the first subgroup fed on high sodium diet as a control positive group. Subgroups (2, 3 and 4)were fed on high sodium diet supplemented with basil (200mg/kg1 per day), cloves (200mg/kg1 per day) and (basil 100gm/kg + cloves 100gm/kg per day) respectively. Results: the results cleared that, basil, cloves and mixture of theme reduced systolic and diastolic blood pressure.in addition to significant decrease in the mean values of total lipid profile, glucose, Serum Glutamic Oxalocetic Transaminase(SGOT)and Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT) in all treated groups, compared to positive control groups, while high-density lipoprotein (HDLc) increased.
