Nicotine and alcohol hamper the production of healthy cells in the bone marrow, and immature cells that function ineffectively are released into the circulation. A wave of stress releases large amounts of adrenaline and nor-adrenaline which can either stimulate or inhibit the functions of the immune system. There is a difference between healthy and unhealthy stress. The former is necessary and tones up the immune system, while the latter wears out the immune functions. Such a healthy stimulus is exercise.
All asanas are helpful.
Pranayama is valuable for the immune system. Pranayama stimulates and regulates the healthy functioning of all the organs through the nervous system. In pranayama, the facial muscles are relaxed. All rights reserved.
