The present study was aimed to find out whether a change in the
alignment of the pyramid from the north-south axis causes any
variation in the effects produced by it on plasma cortisol levels and
markers of oxidative stress in erythrocytes of adult-female Wistar
rats. Plasma cortisol and erythrocyte TBARS levels were significantly
lower whereas erythrocyte GSH was significantly higher in rats kept in
pyramid that was aligned on the four cardinal points--north, east,
south and west, as compared to normal control rats. Although there was
a significant difference in the plasma cortisol level between normal
control group and the group of rats kept in randomly aligned pyramid,
there was no significant difference between these two groups for the
other parameters. Erythrocyte TBARS levels in the group of rats kept
in the randomly aligned pyramid was significantly higher than that in
the group kept in the magnetically aligned pyramid. The results
suggest that the north-south alignment of the pyramid is crucial for
its expected effects.
