Supplements

It is important when buying supplements to source them from a good supplier.  Manjula have carefully researches the companies she uses to ensure that her client’s get the best possible results from their products. She choses comapnies who produce products of an extremely high quality – and therefore they work!  You may find cheaper alternatives on the high street but they are usually made from synthetic ingredients, with lots of nasty additives and you could well be wasting your money.  Chiray is a keen supporter of Nutrigold who are one of the forerunners in the UK’s Complementary Practitioner Health Market.  To order their products or to view their site click on this link – Nutrigold.

Yoga helps anxiety and depression

A new study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine has shown a link between practising yoga, decreased anxiety levels and increased GABA levels.  Low levels of (GABA) are associated with depression and other anxiety disorders.

In the study, researchers compared brain levels of gamma amino butyric acid (GABA) in both yoga subjects and people who spent time walking.  At the end of week 12, researchers compared GABA levels of both groups.  All study subjects were also asked to assess their psychological state at different points throughout the study; researchers found that those who practised yoga had a more significant decrease in anxiety and greater improvements in mood than those who spent the same time walking.  Chris Streeter, associate professor of psychiatry and neurology at BUSM, concluded that further research into the relationship between yoga and mood is warranted and that yoga should be considered as a possible therapy for certain mental disorders.
