Neurogrit Gold Opens New Avenues for Parkinson's Disease Treatment
Neurogrit Gold is a Unique Blend of Traditional Ayurveda and Modern Science – Acharya Balkrishna
National/Haridwar, June 9 : Novel research conducted by Patanjali's scientists on C. elegans confirms that the Ayurvedic formulation Neurogrit Gold not only helps improve memory loss caused by Parkinson's disease, but it also increases the lifespan; however, it does not hamper the growth and progeny of these organisms. This exemplary study has been published in the world-renowned Wiley's publication journal, CNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics.
On this occasion, Acharya Balkrishna stated that In Parkinson's disease, not only does a person suffer mentally, but their social interactions also shrink significantly. But is there a way for such individuals to recover and resume their daily activities independently? Yes, indeed, it is possible!
Acharya Ji further stated that Neurogrit Gold is a remarkable fusion of our ancient wisdom, Ayurveda and modern science. This research demonstrates that if natural herbs are analyzed through a scientific lens, they can bring revolutionary solutions to modern-day health challenges. Neurogrit Gold is a composition of natural herbs like Jyotishmati and Giloy, along with traditional Ayurvedic Bhasma such as Ekangveer Ras, Moti Pishti, Rajat Bhasma, Vasant Kusumakar Ras, and Rasraj Ras, all of which are considered beneficial for neurological disorders.
Dr. Anurag Varshney, Vice-President and Chief Scientist of Patanjali Research Foundation, stated that this is the first time that a novel experiment has been conducted on C. elegans using an Ayurvedic formulation. The results are not only exciting for the scientific community but also hold great promise for human health in the future.
He further added that Dopamine is a crucial neurotransmitter and hormone in our brain that controls bodily functions and movements. However, when dopamine fails to perform its assigned work, our body starts to tremble, and people usually forget those simpler tasks as well that we were used to doing perfectly. This phase is known as Parkinson's disease. Neurogrit Gold helped in reducing oxidative stress levels in the organisms while enhancing gene expression of pink-1 and pdr-1, which are responsible for mitochondrial autophagy and gene expression of cat-2, which is responsible for dopamine synthesis.

Delhi HC restrains Patanjali Ayurved from running disparaging ads against Dabur India's Chyawanprash
The Delhi High Court on Thursday restrained Patanjali Ayurved from airing any television advertisements that disparage Dabur India 's Chyawanprash products. The decision was issued in response to Dabur India 's petition seeking an injunction against the alleged defamatory advertising campaign. The court allowed Dabur's plea for an interim injunction, preventing Patanjali from telecasting any further disparaging commercials. The matter had first come up on December 24, when the court issued summons and notices to Patanjali Ayurved on Dabur's request for interim relief. Dabur informed the court that despite the summons, Patanjali Ayurved aired 6,182 advertisements over the previous weeks. Dabur alleged these ads falsely promoted Patanjali's product as being made with over 51 herbs, while it actually used only 47. Dabur argued this amounted to spreading misinformation among consumers. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like New Container Houses Bosnia And Herzegovina (Prices May Surprise You) Container House | Search ads Search Now Undo 'They refer to us as ordinary.

The petitioner had also raised concerns over Patanjali's commercial claim that only those with Ayurvedic and Vedic knowledge can make the original Chyawanprash, implying Dabur's product was inferior. Additionally, Dabur alleged that Patanjali's product contained mercury and was unfit for children's consumption. Live Events The court's order temporarily halts Patanjali's campaign.

THESE 5 ancient brain hacks still work; here's why
While we do a lot to keep our physical bodies in shape - diet, exercise, walking etc, we seldom pay attention to our mental state of mind. Amidst the chaotic world we live in, riddled with fear, anxiety, and stress, our mind is always in fast forward, and rarely gets time to rest (not even when we are sleeping!) However, apart from eating a well balanced diet, there are some ancient hacks that can sharpen our brain as well. These will not only make you sharper, but also bring calm to your frayed nerves and chaotic senses. Take a look. (source:doclogues) Meditation Meditation is one of the oldest brain hacks, dating back thousands of years, and is the foundation of mental peace. This practice involves quieting the mind and focusing attention, often on the breath, or a mantra. There have been enough studies to confirm that meditation reduces activity in the amygdala—the brain's fear and stress center—while boosting the prefrontal cortex, which helps with attention, decision-making, and emotional regulation. Regular meditation helps break the cycle of constant internal chatter, allowing the mind to experience a calm, focused state. Studies show that long-term meditators have more gray matter in brain areas linked to sensory processing and awareness, which can translate into sharper focus and better memory. Meditation also triggers epigenetic changes, helping the body's deepest healing mechanisms at the genetic level, making it a powerful tool for long-term brain health. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Yoga and Breathwork Those who understand Yoga know that it is more than physical exercise; it's a holistic practice combining postures, breath control, and meditation. There is research to prove that those who do Yoga everyday have higher oxygen levels in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex during breathwork, an area critical for planning, attention, and emotional control. Breathwork, especially slow abdominal breathing, makes oxygen flow to the brain better, improving cognition, memory, and emotional regulation. The rhythmic movements and postures in yoga also activate different brain regions, that better mental clarity and reduces stress. Ayurvedic Nootropics Ayurveda offers natural nootropics—herbs that enhance cognitive function. One of the most studied Ayurvedic herbs is Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), known for its ability to improve memory, reaction time, and executive function. Ashwagandha extracts can reduce anxiety and stress, while also enhancing cognitive flexibility and working memory in healthy adults. This herb contains bioactive compounds like withanolides that support brain health and may work synergistically with other treatments. Fasting Fasting is a fad that has caught attention in the last few decades. But in reality, it is an ancient practice that has a host of health benefits. (and not done just for religious/festive purposes) Intermittent fasting triggers a process called autophagy, where the body clears out damaged cells and recycles useful components, effectively cleaning up the brain at a cellular level. This clean up of the body reduces inflammation, protects neurons, and promotes the formation of new neural connections. Many people who fast report clearer thinking, better mood, and improved focus. Fasting also enhances neuroplasticity, which is the brain's ability to adapt and rewire itself - this can reduce stress, and prevent neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Squatting While it may seem surprising, squatting—a natural human posture can also boost brain health. Scientific evidence shows that the up-and-down motion of squatting causes blood flow to the brain to fluctuate, which stimulates the inner lining of blood vessels to release beneficial substances. This vascular stimulation improves cognition, memory, and learning by enhancing blood supply and nutrient delivery to the brain. Unlike intense cardio workouts, or new age (read complicated) workout plans, squatting is a low-impact exercise that can be done anywhere, making it an accessible and effective ancient brain hack for maintaining mental sharpness. Why These Ancient Brain Hacks Still Work What makes these ancient techniques so effective even today? They all focus on balancing brain function by reducing stress, improving oxygen and nutrient flow, and promoting neural health. Unlike quick fixes or pills or fad diets, these engage the body and mind cohesively, triggering natural healing.

‘UP's push to AYUSH to create jobs, strengthen rural economy'
Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh is expected to witness a surge in demand for medicinal crops as Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has announced plans to start 100-bed ayurvedic wellness centres in every district and establish AYUSH colleges in six underserved divisions, officials said. The CM announced the expansion of AYUSH services across the state during the inauguration of Mahayogi Guru Gorakhnath AYUSH University in Gorakhpur on Tuesday. "The vision will give a push to holistic healthcare and rural growth by boosting the demand for medicinal crops. This will enhance farmers' incomes and create jobs across cultivation, processing, and supply chains, strengthening rural economy," an official said. "Data trends show that the export of Ayurvedic products rose dramatically from USD 2.85 million in 2014 to USD 18 billion in 2020. This underscores an increasing international trust and demand for traditional Indian health systems," he said. "CM Yogi Adityanath has a personal and traditional association with yoga and Ayurveda and holds great influence as the leader of the Nath sect. He is taking steps to make UP a hub for health tourism. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Sharp Design, Smoother Drives.

Key medicinal crops eligible for govt subsidy include sarpagandha, ashwagandha, brahmi, kalmegh, kaunch, shatavari, tulsi, aloe vera, vach, artemisia, giloy, amla, and jatamansi, which are eligible for subsidies ranging from 30 to 75%. "The govt is encouraging farmers to cultivate a single type of medicinal plant collectively in clusters to attract direct market access," the official added. This potential is reinforced by the presence of premier central govt institutions in Lucknow, including the National Botanical Research Institute (NBRI) and the Central Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants (CIMAP). "These institutions are not only engaged in cutting-edge research but also actively support grassroots medicinal farming by training farmers and promoting best practices," they said.
