Yoga Put to the Test for MS, Back Pain, Neck Pain, Insomnia, and Breast Cancer

43 Risposte a “Yoga Put to the Test for MS, Back Pain, Neck Pain, Insomnia, and Breast Cancer”

1. I love yoga, but Caution: If you've developed some otherwise harmless calcium crystals in your inner ear, many yoga poses can move them, creating some extreme nausea inducing vertigo. This sent me to the ER earlier this month 😕

2. I love this channel!

3. yoga is like college or summer camp, more of an emotionally enlightening experience not hard cause and effect science

4. I’ve been doing yoga for a few years now. It helps me from getting lower back pain and sciatica and improves my anxiety. It also seems to helps when I have sinus pain. I thinks it’s the breathing and moving in up and down positions.

5. Perhaps for some it's like Jack Sparrow's jar of dirt:
   "…Dirt. This is a jar of dirt."
   
   "Yes."
   
   "Is the jar of dirt going to help?"
   
   "If you don't want it, give it back."
   
   "No."
   
   "Then it helps."

6. So yoga is about as useful as a strictly vegan diet.

7. I am 72 and have been doing yoga for years. I like most of the other people I do it with partisipate in lots of other activities like running gym and walking

8. so yoga is basicaly useless beside neckpain and being a hobby. I thought they at least did flexibility exercise even if it was not the most scientificaly based one.

9. As an MS patient, I do some yoga moves, but they’re also PT, and they help immensely with spasticity which doesn’t really get much better with a whole foods plant based diet and active lifestyle.

10. Theres no unique effect on Yoga. We have to compare with Pilates which brings the same benefits on neck issues.But Its a great exercise, a little overvalueted by some Yogis.

11. Yoga has helped my backpain. Even now any amount of other exercise I do, when I do that certain posture, my backpain reduces considerably

12. I tend to be less injury prone when I included yoga along with other exercise activities such as running and weightlifting. Also, in general, i enjoy the greater freedom of movement/flexibility with the normal movements in life that yoga seems to promote; yes less neck pain but also less back issues, etc.

13. @sedickemery668 HA HA HA!!!!

14. Yoga incorporates stretching, range of motion and balance which we all need as we get older.

15. This video is… shockingly bad. "Yoga" is an umbrella term comprising hundreds of branches and styles, just like dance and martial arts… Imagine if a so-called "scientific" study used the term "religion" instead of the specific name(s) of the religion(s) which it studied… ridiculous! There are a couple ways to walk but there are 2000 different yoga poses. How do we know you even tested the correct yoga postures? Why would you obfuscate which type of yoga was tested? For 1 HOUR I would love for Dr Greger to do a standing forward fold and a MAYURASANA and then tell me which one is most similar to "walking"

16. Yoga poses is just one branch of what it is in its totality. Yoga works in many aspects like meditations, concentrations , awareness, etc. so lets not just think yoga is the poses 🙏🏻

17. Feels like the studies you have picked have no relation to reality 😂😂

18. I use yoga stretching on my recovery days, when I'm not weight lifting or HIIT movement. It helps with the stiffness & range of motion.

19. Key takeaway: Neck pain seems to be the only tested increased benefit of doing yoga over other exercises.

20. Yoga has advantages that can never be understood by western medicine.

21. So much of the health and fitness industry is flooded with pseudoscience. I really appreciate those that debunk all of the nonsense that is out there. 🙏🏽

22. 👍

23. Uhhhhh……. just what type of yoga? There are many types of yoga and yoga is a lifestyle not just poses. All of it must be considered before any study of this nature can be accurately measured. Disappointed in this not going much further than it did before commenting.

24. For those who commented that yoga is far more than the poses, well……Here in the West, for most people, yoga is the poses and nothing more. I know many yoga enthusiasts, and it's simply a set of low-intensity poses. That's it, rightly or wrongly. Maybe it shouldn't be called yoga at all.

    My wife and her friends did yoga for years, believing that was all the exercise they needed. I have always argued against this belief. Now, as these women are starting to develop lifestyle diseases (like sarcopenia, diabetes, hypertension), some of them are beginning to realize they need proper, high-intensity exercise such as weight-training, cycling and power walking. Yoga does NOT take the place of a real exercise program, as you will find out eventually.

25. I have doing yoga for years and I have noticed some of the poses help in flexibility, back pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, etc. Pranayam yoga and meditation is so effective for stress relief. It would have been better if these studies instead of just using generic yoga term could have tried to compare the effectiveness with respect to specific yoga poses. Yoga has so many poses, so if a study does not identify what poses were used for the study it seems the authors had an ulterior motive! I wonder if Dr Greger is aware that yoga is not just one pose but multitudes of poses and so lack of pose specificity is a valid shortcoming of such research.

26. 💕

27. As a MS patient I think yoga definitely help with balancing, maybe with calming your nerve but it’s all depends on poses , there are 1000s of them.

28. Long term studies would be more appropriate for evaluating yoga practice efficacy, especially if they are choosing participants who are new to the practice and still learning the asanas. Yoga shouldn't be reduced to a means to an end as seen in these studies. It is a complex spiritual system of connecting to the body which is invaluable to all aspects of health. I have so much love and respect for Dr. Greger but this was reductionist. Still good to know what's out there in terms of research 🙏

29. Indian nonsense is just that. Nonsense.

30. What kind of yoga? Taught by whom? I generally enjoy Dr. Greger’s videos, but this was quite silly. I’ve practiced and taught yoga asana and meditation for much of my life and I can tell you that so much yoga taught now is not really yoga at all. It takes years to even begin to understand what it is and how to practice.

31. The title of this video should be "Some Asanas Put to the Test for MS, Back Pain, Neck Pain, Insomnia, and Breast Cancer".

32. The original text about Yoga contains the correct definition of the term: “Yoga is the complete settling of the activity of the mind.” Yoga aka Samadhi aka Pure Consciousness aka Transcendence is a neurophysiological state that reduces stress more than anything else which has profound effects on brain and nervous system health. We need more studies about THAT, not Asanas (physical postures). The state of Yoga can be entered with effortless mental techniques such as Transcendental Meditation.

33. I like yoga because it strengthens my wole body much better than walking.

34. Very interesting! Thank you <3

35. I am 65 yrs old and I started doing a half hour of yoga every two days, three years ago. I do a beginner's core strength routine, (which warms me up to ride my bike and lift arm weights too). The routine includes half boat pose, full boat pose, side balance, planks and side planks.
    Before I started this program I had joint pain in my legs and shoulders. The pain is completely gone now. My balance has improved and yoga gives me a beautiful calmness when I am finished.
    A year ago I was on a small ladder holding up one end of a gutter for my boyfriend. Coming down I missed the bottom rung. For a nano second I thought I would fall on my back with the ladder on top of me. I said to myself "no way" and I proceeded to walk backwards (large steps) with the ladder in my hands….I pulled myself out of the fall. I was embarrassed, but my boyfriend said he was astounded at how I regained my balance. I attribute this ability to practicing yoga…I know it has improved by balance immensely.
    These studies are wrong! Like one commenter said western medicine will never understand yoga. It has made me calm, strong and balanced…once you do yoga a few times it becomes as necessary as the air you breathe for your well being. I notice it's always the people who have never done yoga who criticize it.

36. As I said on the previous video, what the west calls as "Yoga" is not true Yoga and it's a shame to call many of these modern day models calling themselves yoginis. That word has a much more deeper meaning and needs to be taught by a true Yoga guru.

37. Yoga has been fundamental in relieving my back pain and muscle aches. Even my Achilles tendonitis.

38. LIES CAUSE I HURT MY NECK WATCHING YOGA & YOGA PANTS

39. I like to get my exercise by doing renovation work on my home. In that way I'm getting paid in the long term to exercise.
    If other people prefer yoga or going to the gym or jogging or whatever, then that's fine by me.
    It's just that I like to use logic as much as possible to guide my day to day decisions in life.

40. I have done a comment on the first video and understand science and yoga cannot fit together. Yoga is science as a research on a side where the conventional science cannot investigate. That is the reason why all the comments against the video. The way to go out is to listen to doctors who speaks about yoga like Mel Robin.

41. What can I say I walk 3 miles everyday and do an hour of yoga a couple a week. There's no comparison! Yoga is much more physical, works on many more muscle groups and I sleep better than I do with any other exercise. This makes my lose faith in these studies.

42. How did this stupidity end up in my feed?

43. For the algorithm
