Abstract. Utilization of sweet potato as a food product has been commonly carried out and the nutrients in it have been known. This is what underlies the existence of food diversification using sweet potato leaves. Sweet potato leaves contain B vitamins, iron, calcium, zinc and protein, besides that sweet potato leaves are a source of natural antioxidants such as β-carotene, anthocyanins, phenolic acids, tannins, polyphenols, including lutein. Utilization of sweet potato leaves into processed products, one of which is by flouring sweet potato leaves as a substitute for cookies. The research design was carried out using a random nested block design, consisting of two factors. The first factor as a nest was purple sweet potato leaves and yellow sweet potato leaves. Second factor as a nesting factor is the formulation of cookies with the substitution of sweet potato leaf flour with different levels (3.3g, 6.6g, 9.9g, 13.2g). Observation parameters include moisture content, ash content, fat content, protein content, total carbohydrates, antioxidant activity, texture, organoleptics (taste, color, preferences, aroma, aftertaste). The results of this study indicate an effect on ash content and protein content in different varieties. In the treatment of different formulations, it is known that there is an effect on moisture, carbohydrate, and protein content. The effect of adding purple sweet potato leaf flour and yellow sweet potato leaf flour in this study affected organoleptics including taste, color, aroma, preferences, and aftertaste. The treatment of cookies with the addition of sweet potato leaf flour with the highest ash content was 2.83%, the lowest water content was 1.51%, the highest protein content was 31.07%, and the largest carbohydrate content was 41.04%. Keywords: antioxidant, processed, sweet potato leaves   Abstrak. Pemanfaatan ubi jalar sebagai produk pangan telah umum dilakukan dan telah diketahui zat gizi didalamnya.

Hypercholesterolemia is still a health problem today because it is associated with the onset of cardiovascular disorders with various complications. High cholesterol levels carried by the blood will accumulate in the arteries that cause atherosclerosis. Blood clots and blockage of blood vessels can result in the stroke or heart attack. Flavonoids that are found in purple sweet potato leaves are quercetin. Quercetin has antioxidant effects that can improve blood vessel endothelial function, reduce LDL sensitivity to free radical effects, and reduce blood lipid levels. This study aims to determine the effect of ethanol extract of purple sweet potato leaves on LDL cholesterol level of hypercholesterolemia rat. The experiment was conducted experimentally using 2 groups of Wistar rats (each group consisting of 5 tails), namely the control group and the treatment group. Induction of hypercholesterolemia was performed with a high-fat diet for 7 days. The purple sweet potato ethanol extract was administered sonde in the treatment group with a quercetin dose of 2 mg /kg/day for 14 days and the measurement of LDL cholesterol was performed on days 10 and 24 by the CHOD-PAP method. Data were analyzed by Paired t-test. The results showed that LDL cholesterol level in the treatment group showed that 5 mice had decreased, the mean decrease of 32,49 mg/dl while control group 3 decreasing, mean 0,65 mg /dl. There was a significant difference (p <0.05) on changes in LDL cholesterol levels in the treatment group. Provision of purple sweet potato ethanol extract with quercetin dose of 2 mg/kg for 14 days can decrease LDL cholesterol level of hypercholesterolemia rat. From the results of this study is expected to optimize the utilization of purple sweet potato leaves (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam) as a drug for lowering LDL cholesterol.
