Meditazione e respiro per ridurre le infiammazioni

Il sistema nervoso autonomo e il sistema immunitario possono essere influenzati con una semplice tecnica di respirazione e meditazione, che riduce la produzione delle sostanze che stimolano i processi infiammatori e aumenta quella delle sostanze antinfiammatorie. La tecnica, messa a punto dal recordman di resistenza al freddo, potrebbe essere di aiuto a chi soffre di patologie autoimmuni.

Il sistema nervoso autonomo e il sistema immunitario innato possono essere influenzati volontariamente sfruttando alcune semplici tecniche di respirazione e di meditazione. A dimostrare questa possibilità – potenzialmente di aiuto ai pazienti affetti da patologie associate a stati infiammatori persistenti o da malattie autoimmuni – è stato uno studio condotto da ricercatori della Radboud University a Nijmegen, nei Paesi Bassi, che firmano un articolo pubblicato sui “Proceedings of the Natoonal Academy of Sciences” http://www.pnas.org/content/111/20/7379.

Dott. Enzo Soresi: “Il cervello anarchico”

Alla luce della PNEI (Psiconeuro endocrino- immunologia), il Dott. Enzo Soresi, medico chirurgo specializzato in malattie polmonari ed oncologia clinica, ex primario di pneumologia presso l’ospedale Niguarda di Milano e presidente dell’Associazione Sanità senza fumo, descrive da un punto di vista scientifico una serie di casi clinici “singolari” per dimostrare l’importanza di un modello di vita volto a ridurre al minimo il disagio psichico, con conseguente prevenzione del danno biologico.

Per tutto il periodo della sua vita fetale, fino al momento della nascita, il cervello sviluppa con l’organismo a cui appartiene una relazione fisiologicamente armonica che si instaura attraverso un network di comunicazioni rappresentate dai neurotrasmettitori e neuropeptidi. Questi messaggeri neurochimici, prodotti dalle cellule del sistema nervoso centrale e del sistema immunitario, influenzano la crescita delle fibre nervose, la plasticità delle sinapsi, il ciclo vitale dei neuroni con la loro morte programmata, determinando l’assetto definitivo del sistema nervoso centrale e periferico.
