Introduction: Dyslipidemia is not mentioned in Ayurveda but it can be correlated with Medoroga. Nidanparivarjana is the main treatment principle of Ayurveda. The lifestyle modification is a part of the management for patients with Dyslipidemia, regardless of pharmacologic intervention. Aims and Objectives: To study the etiological factors of Dyslipidemia related to Ahar and Vihar (Dietary & Behavioral regimen).

They were randomly divided into case and control group. Each subject was exposed to case proforma. Case proforma was made in such a way that it included probable etiological factors related to Dyslipidemia. Observation And Results: Statistical analysis showed that Dyslipidemia was significantly related with unhealthy dietary habits, Dyslipidemia present in family, obesity, alcohol consumption, smoking, tobacco, tea and diabetes mellitus.
