Guest guest Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 .. Or a study that shows that. Yup there's that doubting again. I think the studies are probably out there Val. Because this Maharishi guy had the dosh to pay to have them done properly. Not like Big Pharma where they would never have done the research as there would not have been any profit in it for them.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 >>This study found that people who had been practicing the Transcendental Meditation program for three to five years had significantly lower cortisol levels during the TM technique compared to just before beginning the technique (p<.01), and significantly lower levels during TM compared to controls who were resting with eyes closed (p<.03)<< OK so oyu have to stay in a meditative state ot lower cortiosl? OK you try it. I wasnt realistic proof this is not a scientific study. Thsi si a trial done to prove a point., WVERYone's cortios lowers when they sleep! Meditation is just doing the same thing to oyur body! HEALED peokle that had high cortisol and now dont; ANYTIME is what I would really like to see. Or a study that shows that. Yup there's that doubting again. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for people with severely compromised adrenals, it would be like spitting in the wind. Just like licorice is helpful in the beginning stages of low cortisol but once you hit a certain point you have to go for the big guns of HC.

Yes I think there may be truth in what you say re the severely compromised adrenals though who knows what the research has turned up?. A normal, healthy person's adrenals would not need TM though to return to normal, i.e. the adrenals are adaptive by nature and that is what they do best, they shoot out extra cortisol to help in a stressful situation and then go back to w here they were once the crisis is over.
