The aim of this study was to determine the supplementation of cow's milk-based probiotics and fermented soybean milk on blood lipids profile such as cholesterol levels, triglycerides, and meat cholesterol levels of broiler chicken. The study was conducted from January to February 2018. The method used was experimental with Completely Randomized Design (CRD) and to see the treatment effects. The data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance followed by Duncan’s multiple range test. The treatment consisted of five treatments with four replications, namely P0 = control diet/ without giving probiotics, P1 = 100% fermented cow's milk, P2 = 50% fermented cow's milk + 50% soy milk fermentation, P3 = 75% fermented cow's milk + 25% soy milk fermentation. The results showed that the administration of probiotics had a significant effect (P <0.05) on a decrease in blood triglyceride levels and meat cholesterol compared with other treatments. There were no significant effect (P>0.05) on blood cholesterol levels among treatments. In conclusion, the administration of 100% fermented cow's milk and 75% fermented cow's milk + 25% fermented soy milk reduced blood triglyceride levels and meat cholesterol which is improved meat quality.
