Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 I am most interested in this discussion of yoga and asthma. If the blood and brain are seperated by barriers, how come eating bananas elevates mood? How come eating anything at all affects mood? How come diet plays a key role in regulating criminal behaviour?Jagannath Chatterjee <jagchat01 wrote: ____________ wrote: If yoga causes the brain to produce certain neurotransmitters in excess(say, for example, serotonin), that still has no effect on asthmabecause asthma is a disease of uncontrolled mast-cell degranulation inthe tissues of the *airways.* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Yoga and pranayam especially the way Swami Ramdev recommends, oxygenate all the cells by giving extra pran-shakti (life force) in addition to the spiritual force that cure asthma. I had asthma for thirty years and eating bananas used to make my breathing heavy. Asthma attacks were also quite frequent. Any thing like the house dust and more particularly sulphur fumes from Diwali crackers used to trigger asthma attacks. By doing pranayam, yoga, rhythmic breathing and its synchronization with any physical exercise including walking alongwith suitable changes in the diet cured me completely. Hence I have become a firm believer that asthma can be cured by the patient him/herself sans all medicines and drugs. For more info, divyayoga trust of Swami Ramdev has full documentation of such cures in India and abroad including UK where Ramdevji is currently holding yog science camps that are being telecast worldwide on Aastha channel and some other channels too.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Chemicals affect mood - bananas are renownedly known for neuro-transmitter properties - perhaps there is more to foods than their physical properties too (like us) - plus impact on the gut has enormous implications for mood which you would have experienced if you had ever fasted - hormones are even more responsible for mood and many other factors too Best, Jane - I am most interested in this discussion of yoga and asthma. If the blood and brain are seperated by barriers, how come eating bananas elevates mood? How come eating anything at all affects mood?

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 The blood brain barrier exists to regulate traffic of substances in the blood circulation. The various substances in circulation are those produced by the endocrine system (in vivo)and those ingested,inhaled or applied on the skin. The exact nature of the blood brain barrier is hard to study in living subjects. A common observation is alcohol ingested as liquor(which is a derivative of ethyl alchol)induces intoxication while illicit liquor(derivative of methyl alcohol) sold in many villages in India causes serious effects including blindness from optic atrophy. One of the reasons (not yet proved in full)why Homeopathy works is that those remedies are taggedto alcohol moleculeswhich readily crosses the blood brain barrier. The blood brain barrier acts as a sieve(though there is an active electron transport mechanism in function)and perhaps the dilution process used to prepare homeopathic remedies alters the molecular structure of alcohol as well as the remedy. As far as Yoga and asthma is concerned i am not sure if there is any direct realtionship.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Most of the secrets of breathing as medicine and glycosugars for moods are covered in sister group ayurveda. The discussion on cellular nutrition as an important milestone in roadmap to health was started in: ayurveda/messages/6572 body accepting natural god-made substances easily as compared to synthetic nutrition in the form of pills, processed supplements etc. This conclusion was supported by a scientific study there. The subject of Glycosugars and glycoproteins was introduced in messages: ayurveda/messages/6632 ayurveda/messages/6650 These are needed for cellular communication (allergies are ones where this plays an important role), and especially regulating body routines through central nervous sytem and associated endocrine glands. These sugars do not add to glucose in the blood, and can be consumed by diabetics too without much fear! They govern moods, tranquility, fertility etc. The natural fruits and vegetables were indicated to compensate for nutritional deficiency of glycoproteins. Banana is one of the important inexpensive fruit affordable to everyone. Especially the yellow skinned one. But author liberally recommends dates and raisins as they can be stored and carried even in suburban trains. Many get surprised when they note that often used anupanas of ayurveda such as honey, date crush, black raisins, jaggery, mollases etc are in reality glycosugars. They elevate mood, reduce acidity of thoughts and body fluids. The secrets of breathing techniques taught by Ramdev Baba and many others were covered in ayurveda/messages/7104 ayurveda/messages/7217 ayurveda/messages/7328 The role of cellular bio-energy, its spin in functioning of various organs was discussed as a part of drugless healing approach. The ways to increase bio-energy through deep sleep, meditation, shavasana, fresh fruit/vegetable juices, accepting cosmic energy through crown chakra and breathing prana rich air were discussed. Chakaras as energy storage centers, and their use in storing energy obtained directly through crown chakra during meditation or breathing techniques was described in detail to enable learning by self practice. The cleansing techniques of YOga and ayurveda, such as Neti and Vaman also help asthma patients as also some yogasanas which should be learnt under guidance. The ayurvedic approach to asthma is described in ayurveda/messages/3486 ayurveda/messages/6827 This post leads to reading material more than 50 pages on sister group ayurveda and will give you freedom from drugs, whether they are from ayurveda, homeopathy or siddha. Asthma is not a " incurable disease " as believed so far, when combined with other alternative paths.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 The whole of humanity especially those who suffer from Asthhma should be very happy to read these posts of Dr. Shirish Bhate on ayurveda. I am personally very happy to read that asthma is curable as against most modern medicine fans who take it for granted that it is not curable and one has to live with it throughout one's life. Thanks to Dr. Bhate once again for this reassurance. S. M.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 I had asthma growing up until I started doing yoga and became a vegetarian in my early 20s.
