All the samples were sent for evaluation of lipid profile. All the results were recorded in Microsoft excel sheet. All the results were analyzed by using SPSS software. Results: Mean total cholesterol levels among obese and non-obese subjects was 189.2 mg/dL and 159.8 mg/dL respectively. Mean triglycerides levels among obese and non-obese subjects was 159.7 mg/dL and 118.6 mg/dL respectively.Mean HDL-C levels among obese and non-obese subjects was 38.1 mg/dL and 41.9 mg/dL respectively.Mean LDL- C levels among obese and non-obese subjects were 137.3 mg/dL and 110.7 8 mg/dL respectively. While comparing the total cholesterol levels, triglyceride levels and low-density lipoproteins levels among obese and non-obese subjects, significant results were obtained.
