Cupping is an Arabian traditional method of treatment in which a jar is attached to the skin surface to cause local congestion through the negative pressure created. Cupping is a therapeutic process of removing unclean blood from the body. Blood letting has been a recommended method to reduce serum lipoprotein concentrations. There are many testimony which cupping can affects a large group of blood related disorders. The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of cupping on LDL cholesterol. Reduction in LDL cholesterol, is a preventive approach against atherosclerosis. In a quasi experimental with pre test and post test, 30 men, 20-24 year old, without chronic disease, no history of hyperlipidemia and also not anti-hyperlipidemic drug consumption, were admitted. All of subjects were treated with cupping in one time. To know the serum concentrations of lipids we collect the blood from cubiti at the time of cupping and an hour after that. The data were analyzed using pair t- test.and pearson correlation. A significant LDL cholesterol increase (P < 0.0000) was found in almost subjects. There was strong positive correlation between LDL cholesterol pre and an hour post cupping (r= 0.987). Cupping will increase the number of LDL cholesterol an hour after treatment.

Semua subyek diperlakukan sama pada satu waktu. Untuk mengetahui konsentrasi lipid serum, darah diambil dari vena cubiti pada awal bekam dan satu jam setelahnya. Data dianalisis menggunakan korelasi pearson pasangan dan t-test. Terdapat peningkatan kolesterol LDL yang signifikan (p=0,000) pada hampir semua subyek. Ada korelasi positif yang kuat antara LDL sebelum dan satu jam setelah bekam (R=0.987). Disimpulkan bahwa bekam meningkatkan jumlah kolesterol LDL satu jam setelah perawatan.
