A swim test intervention. Serum measured using TBARS method. Data analysed one-way Anova followed by post-hoc LSD. p value <0.005 considered be significant. results showed that treated both or significant compared (p=0.011 p=0.027, respectively). Meanwhile, there no difference serum between (p=0.540). Supplementation reduce Further effective recommended.
