Its juice has been proof to reduced total cholesterol, but its seed also has been predicted to reduce it. The objective was to find the effects of Passiflora edulis Sims’s seed extract in different doses in affecting lipid profile serum level in young rats (Rattus novergicus) in fourteen days. There were four groups containing 20 male rats which were devided into: normal diet group (C0); atherogenic diet group (C1); atherogenic diet and 50mg/kg body weight (P1); atherogenic diet and 100mg/kg body weight (P2). Results of this study were there was significant difference of body weight, total cholesterol, and triglyceride, but not for low and high density lipoprotein serum level. The result reported that body weight showed significant difference between C0, C1, P1, and P2. Total cholesterol serum between C0 and C1 group (p=0.04), also between C1 and P2 (p=0.003). There was also significant difference of triglyceride serum level between C0 and P1 (p=0.04) and C0 and P2 (p= 0.03). Based on these results it can be concluded that Passiflora edulis Sims’s seed extract has potential effect in lowering total cholesterol and triglyceride serum in young rats.
