Tai Chi, Jersey City, NJ

OBJECTIVE:

The underlying changes in biological processes that are associated with reported changes in mental and physical health in response to meditation have not been systematically explored. We performed a randomized, controlled study on the effects on brain and immune function of a well-known and widely used 8-week clinical training program in mindfulness meditation applied in a work environment with healthy employees.

We measured brain electrical activity before and immediately after, and then 4 months after an 8-week training program in mindfulness meditation. Twenty-five subjects were tested in the meditation group. A wait-list control group (N = 16) was tested at the same points in time as the meditators. At the end of the 8-week period, subjects in both groups were vaccinated with influenza vaccine.

We report for the first time significant increases in left-sided anterior activation, a pattern previously associated with positive affect, in the meditators compared with the nonmeditators. We also found significant increases in antibody titers to influenza vaccine among subjects in the meditation compared with those in the wait-list control group. Finally, the magnitude of increase in left-sided activation predicted the magnitude of antibody titer rise to the vaccine.

These findings demonstrate that a short program in mindfulness meditation produces demonstrable effects on brain and immune function. These findings suggest that meditation may change brain and immune function in positive ways and underscore the need for additional research.

Here is the original post:

Alterations in brain and immune function produced by ...

What do these labels mean on fruits and vegetables?

These PLU numbers are the Product Look-Up Numbers. The leading number gives you useful information, if you know the code

I remember the code on fruit and veggies using a simple rhyme

8, I hate. Its GMO!

9 is fine. Organic.

All others, like 3 or 4, are neither GMO or organic. They are conventionally grown. This means the growers could have applied poisons to the food, including pesticides, herbicides, and synthetic fertilizer. But the food itself is not genetically modified.

8, I Hate

I never buy food labeled 8, because thats the one I hate. GMO food has not been sufficiently tested for safety, in my opinion. Where are the studies showing GMO food is safe? And why are companies like Monsanto and Bayer modifying the genetic code in a lab instead of through natural selection?

[Edit, Jan-15-2013: I have since realized that Evolution is a lie, a false religion. There is no credible evidence to support Evolution. I looked and found none. God has designed all the food that is good to eat. God is perfect and already made the plants to be good. Companies that genetically modify the plants for financial gain are going against God's design and are asking for trouble. The love of money is the root of all evil... 1 Timothy 6:10 KJV]

These powerful corporations want to prevent you and me from saving our seeds and growing our own food. They use the government to enforce their patents and to prosecute farmers. There is so much written about this already on the web, so if you want to learn more, a simple search will tell you a lot.

3 or 4

An orange with PLU code 3107

If we buy 3 or 4, we are sure to wash the food thoroughly before cooking or eating. The orange peel above could be saturated with poisons, so I would not use the peel in any recipe.

Mango grown conventionally.

This mango's PLU code (4959) starts with a "4", meaning it is conventionally grown.

The mango above is not organic. It is conventionally grown. I dont like that word choice because it sounds so normal. It is a sad state of our farming practices when it is normal to spray food intended forhuman consumption with poison. No wonder people continue to get sicker. If you see on the label a number beginning with a 3 or 4,that food could contain poisons like pesticides and herbicides and could have been grown with synthetic fertilizer from petroleum. I would much prefer a mango that had a PLU code starting with a 9, which is fine.

If an apple is conventionally grown and starts with a 3 or 4, I wash the apple, then peel the skin off and discard. There are probably poisons sprayed on the skin and I do not feel right about feeding that to my family or myself.

9 Is Fine

Organic apples, Fuji variety

An organically grown Fuji apple

If an apple has the leading digit of 9 its fineits organic.

This PLU sticker has a leading number 9, which is fine: it was grown organically.

I read that apple skins are healthy, as long as they are organic without applied chemicals. I might eat the apples skin if the PLU code starts with 9. If the PLU code starts with a 3 or 4, I will surely discard the apple peel. If the PLU code starts with 8, which I hate well, then, that apple would never make it to my house as we wouldnt buy it.

Conclusion

Know your PLU codes and live healthier and happier.

9 is fine!

Stressed out? Heres how just 20 minutes a day spent meditating can improve health.

Often thought of as a hippy-dippy practice aimed at transcendence, meditation is coming into its own as a stress-reduction technique for even the most type-A kind of people.

In 2005, for instance, severe chest pains sent Michael Mitchell to the emergency room in fear of a heart attack. It turned out to be gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD. Nevertheless, after checking his heart, the doctor admitted him and chastised him for not coming in sooner. That really shook me up. It was a wake-up call to have a look at my type A personality and workaholic lifestyle, says the 44-year-old Simi Valley, Calif., statistician for the Veterans Health Administration.

Go on a Meditation Retreat

By Jenn Sturiale Meditation is not a team sport. There are no teammates to help us sit on our cushions, and there are definitely no finish lines or cheering fans. Most often an intensely solitary pursuit, meditation takes us on a personal, inward journey. So then, what's the deal with meditation retreats? "In modern life, with all its disparity and emphasis on intellectual education, talking and materialism, it's rare to pause long enough to allow another focus to deepen and come into view,"...

Mitchell had shrugged off his high blood pressure, but now he kicked off a personal makeover. He read books on happiness, started psychotherapy, and got more exercise. And, despite a skeptical frame of mind, Mitchell turned to meditation on the recommendation of a trusted co-worker. Within a month, he felt more relaxed -- and his blood pressure returned to normal.

Mitchells experience is borne out by studies showing that meditation not only lowers blood pressure but also can amp up your immune system -- although the mechanism isnt clear -- while improving your ability to concentrate.

Those who meditate can choose among a wide range of practices, both religious and secular. What they have in common are a narrowing of focus that shuts out the external world and usually a stilling of the body, says Charles L. Raison, MD, clinical director of the Mind-Body Program at Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta.

Raison participated in a study that indicated that meditation improved both physical and emotional responses to stress. In the study, people who meditated regularly for six weeks showed less activation of their immune systems and less emotional distress when they were put in a stressful situation.

Stress reduction could be the key to meditations beneficial effect on health. We know stress is a contributor to all the major modern killers, Raison points out. More studies have shown improvement for fibromyalgia and even psoriasis in patients who meditate. Its hard to think of an illness in which stress and mood dont figure, Raison says.

Science hasnt yet connected the dots between what happens in the meditating brain and the immune system. But a University of Wisconsin study saw increased electrical activity in regions of the left frontal lobe, an area that tends to be more active in optimistic people, after eight weeks of training in meditation.
