Ayurvedic Health and Wellness Center Opens in Mountain View, California
Ayurvedic Health and Wellness Center Opens in Mountain View, California
September 27th, 2010Mountain View, CA: Dr. Jay Apte announced the grand opening of her new 4,100 sq. ft. Ayurvedic Health and Wellness Center in Mountain View, California. The Center, dedicated to bringing together the benefits of ancient wisdom and western knowledge, features a clinic staffed by an expert team of Ayurvedic doctors, yoga & meditation studio, diet & lifestyle counseling, physical therapy, chiropractic, acupuncture, massage services, special rejuvenation programs, cooking classes, lectures, and seminars.
As part of its comprehensive menu of services, specifically designed to improve quality of life for busy Silicon Valley professionals and their families, the Center also provides the highly sought-after Ayurvedic rejuvenation program “Panchakarma” which incorporates a series of customized detoxifying, balancing, and nourishing therapies. Developed thousands of years ago, Panchakarma is a time-proven therapy for increasing energy levels and brain function, strengthening the immune system, and increasing longevity.
“As healthcare in the United States transitions from “sickness care” to “wellness care” in the 21st Century, there is a growing need for holistic and wellness centers, says Dr. Jay Apte, founder of the Ayurvedic Health and Wellness Center. “An increasing number of people are opting for complementary and alternative medicine approaches such as Ayurveda and other natural philosophies, to solve their health problems because these therapies emphasize prevention, incorporate all aspects of human being – body, mind, spirit – instead of focusing only on physical body. We create “custom tailored” wellness plans, rather than one size fit all programs.”
Centrally located in the heart of Silicon Valley, near many of the world’s leading technology companies, the Center offers corporate wellness programs to address the special needs of high stress individuals and provides informational programs and seminars for individuals, groups, and businesses on Ayurveda, as well as other disciplines such as acupuncture and chiropractic. Plans are also in place to open a holistic store to offer various health and wellness products including holistic, ready-to-cook, pre-packaged foods and herbal supplements.
The Center celebrated its grand opening with an open house on September 11th and 12th between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM.
Asparagus, garlic in daily diet helps shed weight & control diabetes
Asparagus, garlic in daily diet helps shed weight & control diabetes
September 28th, 2010Including food like asparagus, artichokes and garlic in daily diet, can help shed excess weight, while also helping to keep blood sugar levels under control, revealed a recent study.
Researchers have noticed that a diet rich in fermentable carbohydrates such as garlic, asparagus and artichokes can suppress hunger, while also helping the body in regulating blood sugar levels. The reason behind this could be because these foods prompt the release of gut hormones that reduce appetite. They enhance the sensitivity to insulin, thereby leading to better glucose control.
A Dietician at Imperial College, London, Nicola Guess, also the study lead, said on investigating the appetite and glucose level control in people with Type 2 Diabetes, it is hoped that there will be a way out to prevent its onset
Therefore, if the study has been successful, it can be determined if such fermentable carbohydrates can form an effective and affordable health intervention, to reduce an individual’s risk of developing diabetes.

Currently, the Charity Diabetes UK is funding research into the health benefits of such foods. If it is found to be effective this could be used as treatment for obesity and Type 2 diabetes.
An earlier study by the Leicester University had revealed that eating green leafy vegetables, including Broccoli, kale, spinach, cabbage and sprouts, on daily basis can cut the risk of Type 2 diabetes.
Migraine relief with Ayurveda
Migraine relief with Ayurveda
November 3rd, 2010Migraine is one of the most common types of headache found in people and predominantly in women in comparison to men. Though it is found in a lot of people the actual cause is not clearly known and different people can have different triggers that leads to a migraine.
Allopathy may have a lot of on the counter medications that will give temporary relief from the headache. Migraines affect our normal working patterns especially when it is accompanied by nausea, throbs and similar discomforts.
Ayurveda tries to find the root cause of migraine by taking into consideration the body states in terms of the Vata, Pitta and Kapha doshas. Ayurveda suggests a healthy diet, Yoga and Panchakarma treatments to get rid of migraine.
Diet :
Good dietary habits would help an individual maintain good health and offer immunity from recurring bouts of headaches. Consuming cooked vegetables without oil should be encouraged. Have a diet rich in fruits and vegetables. Vegetable juices and soup, fruits and fruit juices including apple, mango, should be taken in ample quantities. Highly-fruit based diet for a day or two can relieve pain. Grapes, lemons, cabbage juice are especially important. Rice, salad and buttermilk can always be consumed.

Yoga:
Simple yoga treatments have been found to serve both as an alternative and as a supplement for dealing with Migraine and Headaches. Yoga is known to offer both cure and immunity from headaches. Headaches caused due to tension and worry can be alleviated through deep breathing and relaxation, especially in a lying down position in a quiet place. Inverted postures, or those where the head is lowered briefly, increase oxygen to the brain and can reduce headache-causing strain. However, for those suffering from severe headache like migraine, any type of exercise can be injurious.

Panchakarma:
Nasya or medicated oil drops used for the treatment of migraine is of two types. The first is called “Shirovirechan”, in which strong, irritant medicines are instilled as nasal drops, which induce sneezing and watery discharge. The second is called as “Avapidak nasya’ in which a paste is prepared of a herb or several herbs, and the liquid is inserted in the nostrils. Usually, herbs like Vacha (Acorus calamus) and Pippali ( Piper longum) are used along with honey. Both procedures are aimed at removing the cause of the headache and the pain.

The medicated enema used in migraine is called as “Anuvasan Basti”. Small quantities of medicated oils, usually about 50 ml. are given at regular intervals, on an outpatient basis. Oil of Sesame and Mahanarayan oil (containing mainly Asparagus racemosus) are usually used for this purpose.
Ayurvedic medications:
Suvarna Sutashekhara Ras is the most commonly prescribed Ayurvedic drug for treating migraine. It is not just a preventive but also a curative means Dose: It is given in the dose of 125 milligram twice daily. The medication is to be taken with milk. Godanti Bhasma is a medication to be taken with honey three times a day. Other preparations include Tribhuvankirti, Bhallatakasav, Triphala Guggulu

Curcumin or turmeric can stop cancer in its earliest stages
Curcumin or turmeric can stop cancer in its earliest stages
October 14th, 2010According to experts, curcumin or turmeric can stop cancer in its earliest stages, long before it is detectable. It works at the level of the cell.
Foundation for Head and Neck Oncology president Dr Anil D’cruz said there have been a lot of innovations in head and neck oncology research. “Earlier, advanced patients were administered high doses of chemotherapy. Now there are low doses of metronomic chemotherapy. There are anti-cancerous agents as simple as curcumin that is used vastly in Ayurveda,” he said.
Integration of different streams of medicines and making cancer care affordable were the buzz words at the International Federation of Head and Neck Oncologic Societies world-tour meeting on Wednesday.
To give advice on how to make services affordable was member of governing council of Medical Council of India ( MCI) and chairman of Narayana Hrudayalaya, Dr Devi Shetty, who said: “India will have a model healthcare system in five years. We have a population of 1.2 billion people and 28 million babies are born every year. Fifty per cent of our population is less than 25 years old. It’s a huge strength. When I was a medical student, I was told that healthcare in India is going to be very expensive. But look at America now, 50% of the population doesn’t have decent medical care,” he said.
He gave examples of model insurance schemes like Karnataka’s Yeshasvini, following which Andhra Pradesh implemented Arogyashri and Tamil Nadu implemented Kalaignar. “We are currently helping six states to launch micro health insurance schemes. Healthcare infrastructure is undergoing a sea change. Karnataka alone has more nursing colleges than America. At Health City, we are performing around 54 heart surgeries per day,” he added. (TOI)

‘We will start with 50 students, who will be taught how to make herbal medicines, diagnose diseases according to Ayurvedic traditions and select medicinal herbs. The fact that we already have a health infrastructure with provision for 400 internal patients and an outpatients department catering to nearly 1,000 people every day will help. The college will be run in compliance with government norms,’ Acharya Balkrishnaji, vice-chancellor of the college and co-founder of Patanjali Yogpeeth Trust and Divya Yog Mandir, told IANS from Hardwar.
The seer said the ‘objective behind the hospital was to combine modern medical science with the ancient Ayurvedic medicine in India’.
‘We have state-of-the-art equipment, better than many hospitals in the country,’ the vice-chancellor said.
Union food processing minister Subodh Kant Sahay – along with 13 chief ministers from Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Haryana, Punjab, Delhi, Chhattisgarh, Assam, Himachal Pradesh, Goa and Sikkim – will inaugurate a herbal and organic food park spread over 95 acres in Hardwar.
‘The Rs.500-crore food park will manufacture aloe vera, amla (Indian goosebery), citrus fruits, vegetable and herbal juices and extracts. It will also process 150 tonnes of cereals rich in calcium and iron every day. The park will provide employment to 30,000 people and benefit hundreds of thousands of farmers who will be ensured fair price for their produce,’ a spokesperson for Patanjali Yogpeeth said.
The organisation, which is billing the park as one of the largest natural processed food zones in the world, has entered into an agreement with Uttarakhand and Punjab to source raw material from farmers.
Apollo Hospitals to conduct research in ayurveda
Apollo Hospitals to conduct research in ayurveda
March 15th, 2010Ayurveda, the traditional Indian system of medicine struggling to get due recognition oweing to its inadequate scientific validation, has now found a new patron in Apollo Hospitals. The chain will carry out research to establish ayurveda as potent system of medicine worldwide.
‘The Indian system of medicine has faced many roadblocks due to lack of enough research. We are set to carry out scientific study on ayurveda and other systems of medicine,’ Prathap C. Reddy, chairman of the Apollo Hospital chain, told IANS.
He said many countries like the US have claimed that several Indian medicines have heavy metals beyond the permissible limit. Many also claim that these treatments are not backed by scientific validation.
‘Here, we are taking it up. We will conduct research in our hospitals across India and come up with a database. After that we will offer willing patients these treatments,’ Reddy added.
He said Apollo has already tied up with a leading ayurveda house in Kerala.
‘Once we provide the scientific validation, we will set up a chain of ayurveda centres to provide treatment for patients,’ Reddy said.

The masseurs, most of whom are either ayurvedic massage therapists or ayurvedic doctors from Kerala, have been selected by the director of Medical Education Ayurveda and principal of Ayurveda Medical College of Trivandrum. They will be now trained in sports injuries by a Pune-based specialist in August.
