TC: total cholesterol, TG: triglyceride, HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, VLDL-C: very low density lipoprotein cholesterol, AI: atherogenic index, I: normotensive control, II: hypertensive control, III: group treated with copper, IV: group treated with manganese, V: group treated with zinc, and VI: group treated with all the minerals. Values are expressed as Mean ± SD; . when compared with group II, when compared with grp II, when compared with group I, and when compare with group I by Dunnette’s multiple comparison test.
