From the Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) and McLean Hospital, scientists recently discovered that yoga can improve brain in γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content, GABA is the brain of the main inhibitory neurotransmitters.
More discovery was published in may by the alternating and compensation medical journal (Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine). This shows that yoga can treat depression or anxiety, and low GABA concentration-related neurological diseases. The World Health Organization reports that ex-constituted the world 15% of the total disease. Depression and anxiety among them all and low GABA levels. Currently, these diseases can increase GABA effective drug treatment. Use of magnetic resonance imaging, scientists compared the yoga of GABA levels before and after, while also analyses without yoga, but reading a hour. The results showed that in participating in a panel of yoga, GABA content increased 27%, but in a panel of participating read remained unchanged. According to the results of this study, yoga can alleviate including depression, anxiety and symptoms of epilepsy. Article main author, BUSM of Psychiatry and Neurology, Assistant Professor Chris Streeter said: "our results clearly show that yoga, it's the brain GABA levels. "Another author, Professor of Psychiatry BUSM and Director Domenic Ciraulo said:" this research for us to understand how to be drug GABA system and behavior interference is very helpful to be able to bring new low GABA disease. "Harvard affiliated McLean Hospital Brain Imaging Center Director Perry Renshaw said:" the invention of low-cost, widely and do not poses a side-effect of interference therapy — such as yoga for mitigation and low GABA-related mental illness is very important that public health is very good. ”
