<strong>Summary</strong><br />
The oxygen-free radical involvement in various deteriorative processes and in aging is unquestionably<br />
established. In the present study, age-related changes in antioxidant enzyme activity in the different regions<br />
<strong>of</strong> CNS <strong>of</strong> 10-month and 32-month-old guinea pigs were studied. Maharishi Amrit Kalash has shown promise<br />
in inhibiting the in vitro and in vivo lipid peroxidation. Therefore, in the present study the effect <strong>of</strong> MAK on<br />
the activity <strong>of</strong> antioxidant enzymes was checked. Our results indicate that the activity <strong>of</strong> superoxide dismutase<br />
and glutathione peroxidase, was found to be reduced p
