Elevated levels of serum IL-6 are a powerful predictor of cardiovascular mortality and mortality from all causes. A cross sectional analytical study was done. Total 200 cases and 200 controls were engaged in study after applying inclusion and exclusion criterion. Serum level of copper, zinc and Il-6 was recorded. Most common group was 50-59 year age group. Serum level of copper and zinc was significantly low in cases than controls. Level of Il-6 was found significantly high. In conclusion copper Deficiency and deficiency of zinc have significant relationship with CHD. Level of Il-6 very much increased in patients of CHD.
