Abstract: Present study deals with the effect of Ashwagandha Ghrita and Ashwagandha Granules on serum lipid profile and tissues in normal rats. Four groups of six animals each were made for experiment. Test drug and vehicles were administered for fifteen consecutive days. Serum lipid profile and tissue cytoarchitecture were analyzed as per standard protocol.  Administration of both the test formulations did not influence serum lipid profile and also did not alter cytoarchitecture of liver, heart, aorta and kidneys. From data generated during study,  it can be concluded  that the Ashwagandha Ghrita and Ashwagandha Granules do not have the potential to alter serum lipid profile.
 
Key words: Bruhmana,  Ashwagandha Granules,  Ashwagandha Ghrita,  Lipid profile
