The research about the effect of lime (Citrus aurantifolia (chrism.) Swing) to levels of triglycerides and body weight of male rats (Rattus norvegicus) wistar strain at a doses of 1.5, 3 and 4.5 ml/kg body weight has done. This study conducted on five groups consisted of norml control , negative control (-), dose of 1.5; 3 and 4 ml/kg body weight, each group consisted of 5 rats , The normal control group were given regular feed, control (-) was given 2 ml cow’s brain and regular feed then the test group were given lime each with a dose of 1.5, 3 and 4.5 ml / kg body weight was added with 2 ml of cow’s brain and regular feed. The method of measurement used is Enzymatic Colorimetric Test GPO (Glycerol-3-Phosphate Oxidase) at a wavelength of 546 nm. The results showed that administration of lime doses of 3 and 4.5 ml/kg body weight have a significant difference (p <0,05) to the control (-). However, at a dose of 4.5 ml/kg body weight more effectively and more quickly lowering triglyceride levels because the first measurement time of the second measurement time already showed a significant difference (p<0,05) .
