The onion and the garlic are among the oldest cultivated plants, serving as food and medicinal uses. The present study was aimed to investigate the effect of honey, onion (Allium cepa) bulb and garlic (Allium sativum) clove extracts on the cardiovascular risque biomarker in healthy women. In a 15 days treatment, 20 women were divided into two groups (n=10), the first group is the group of control (reference) and the other group is women receive aqueous extract of mixt compound (honey, garlic and onions) (test) for 15 days. Some biochemical and hematological parameters were analyzed. Results obtained show that Cholesterol (p <0.05), Triglyceride (p <0.01) and serum calcium level were significantly decreased in the test group compared to reference group however, the level of Creatinine was significantly increased (p <0.05) in test group compared to reference group. Our results demonstrated also that there was no significant change (p≥0.05) in all hematological parameters levels in test group compared to reference group. From the results of the study we can conclude that onion, and garlic extracts enriched with bee honey have a protective effect on lipids profile. Thus, onion, and garlic are beneficial in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
