In the modern world, the yoga plays a vital role in human life. To realise the truth and meaning of life, one has to practice yogic discipline in everyday living. The human body is made up of five elements such as akash, air, fire, water and earth. An air plays a very important role to survive by providing life energy. Everyday practice of pranayama would help in regulating respiratory system (Breathing exercise) as well as circulatory system. The physical exercises regulate the circulation of blood, heat, air in the body. The practice of asana would help in bringing flexibility in our muscular system so as to enhance the meditation process. The practice of meditation gives peace of mind and improves integirity. The practice of yoga will improve self-confidence, self-control, speaking truth, tolerance and social virtues. Each and every individual should practice yoga, asanas, meditation and do self-analysis exercises such as analysis of thoughts, moralisation of desires, nutralisation of anger and eradication of worries. This would help to bring hormoney between body and mind, habit and wisdom, self and society. Purpose and method and will and nature.

Serotonin, also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), is a metabolite of tryptophan and is reported to modulate the development and neurogenesis of the enteric nervous system, gut motility, secretion, inflammation, sensation, and epithelial development. Approximately 95% of 5-HT in the body is synthesized and secreted by enterochromaffin (EC) cells, the most common type of neuroendocrine cells in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, through sensing signals from the intestinal lumen and the circulatory system. Gut microbiota, nutrients, and hormones are the main factors that play a vital role in regulating 5-HT secretion by EC cells. Apart from being an important neurotransmitter and a paracrine signaling molecule in the gut, gut-derived 5-HT was also shown to exert other biological functions (in autism and depression) far beyond the gut. Moreover, studies conducted on the regulation of 5-HT in the immune system demonstrated that 5-HT exerts anti-inflammatory and proinflammatory effects on the gut by binding to different receptors under intestinal inflammatory conditions. Understanding the regulatory mechanisms through which 5-HT participates in cell metabolism and physiology can provide potential therapeutic strategies for treating intestinal diseases. Herein, we review recent evidence to recapitulate the mechanisms of synthesis, secretion, regulation, and biofunction of 5-HT to improve the nutrition and health of humans.

The article analyzes the mechanisms of adaptation of the organism of students to physical activity. It has been determined that the process of adaptation of the organism to the action of physical activity has a phase character. Revealed dependence on the morphological and functional state of various systems of the body. The essence of the concept of physical performance and its importance in adapting the body to physical activity are revealed. In the modern world, the state of health of the population is considered as an indicator of the level of development of civilized society. Physical education and sports occupy a special place in human life and formation, as they are the main means of organizing physical activity, which from birth determines the basis of its socio-biological existence and development. This is due to the fact that without movement, both socio-biological development and human life in society are impossible. According to the International Charter of Physical Education and Sport, physical culture and sport are important components of continuing education for citizens, especially the younger generation. Thus physical education is considered as an educational component, a basic component of system and process of education, and sports as branch of development and realization of physical abilities and possibilities of a human body. Physical education and sports are the most accessible and natural area of human life. Based on the use of natural, biologically necessary, non-drug, widely available means and methods of physical education.

Abstract Chaos is unfortunately for humans a characteristic of the modern world. It can be seen at all levels. Each individual can abuse permanently in order to succeed in doing different things. These abuses address the own person but also other persons. The abuses reach then through stress and other ways the level of everybody’s health and state. To counterbalance these general tendencies, the authors propose an easy and original method to increase the human general balance. This method is called the method of the wire stretched slowly. It usually increases the general human balance to a level over 99%, but it also contains the possibility to bring the soul of the physical body to its stable position. The measurements show also that all the other parameters are in the optimal zone. The authors also prove with a second set of measurements made by a Bio Well device that we can control the positions of the main energy centers to increase our own self-control. The Bio Well device uses the gas discharge technique to develop the aura visualization. This time the subject, who is the first author of this article, changed his yang and yin at his own desire. He succeeded in moving the position of his first energy center, the lowest of the seven centers, as he wanted. All the measurements are presented maybe for the first time in the world. They are designed in general to show that we can take more care about us, in terms of energy and health, without seeing to doctors. They lead also to an improved physic and psychic state, wanted by everyone. The control of the position of an energy center refers also to the control of the general equilibrium of the body. Of course, these things are very useful in general behavior leading to business excellence and not only.

This research article discusses facts about DNA. It is the building block of the body that plays an important role in making the whole body. It is the inherent substance of not only humans but also all other organisms, which is the key to sharing information from parent to child. All genetic information has been structured to transmit traits from one generation to the next, and also to discover the history of DNA. DNA is not only discovered by accident, but by research, it is discovered in its proper way, along with its existence and production. In the light of modern science and Islamic law, the effects and results of DNA tests have also been made clear that Islam has made everything clear like glass even though a single test can produce positive results. DNA testing is specifically designed to help you answer our questions about childbirth. This article mentions several Islamic rules regarding human life. DNA testing is a new and innovative technique. Which is done for different purposes but in the light of Islam unlike the modern world, it has a different view.

Without self discovery, a person may still have self confidence, but it is a self confidence built on ignorance and it melts in the face of heavy burdens. Self discovery is the end product of a great challenge mastered, when the mind commands the body to do the seemingly impossible, when strength and courage are summoned to extraordinary limits for the sake of something outside the self—a principle, an onerous task, another human life. (Charles Froelicher, 1962)

Experience of one’s own body relies on signals arising within the body as well as on exteroceptive information, and on appraisal of cognitive and affective aspects of these signals. The present study investigated the impact of sensitivity to internal signals, that is, interoceptive awareness, on interindividual differences in cognitive and emotional aspects of body experience. Subjects with accurate (n = 30) versus poor (n = 30) interoceptive awareness, classified via a heartbeat perception task, completed the Body Consciousness Questionnaire and the Body Appraisal Inventory. Possible effects of emotional state on body experience were controlled for using measures of mood and anxiety. While the groups did not differ in their emotional state, individuals with accurate cardiac interoceptive awareness exhibited higher subjective sensitivity to bodily sensations and a more positive body image, characterized by stronger body-related self-confidence, greater satisfaction with physical appearance, greater perceived bodily self-control, as well as reduced hypochondriacal concerns, sexual discontent, and shame. The present findings extend earlier research on the importance of perception of physical cues for emotion, cognition, and behavior regulation. Our results underline the contribution of interoceptive information to body experience, where interindividual differences in the accessibility of such information modulate cognitive and affective facets of body image.

The circulatory system has two interrelated, but distinct parts, the cardiovascular system which circulates blood around the body and the lymphatic system which returns excess fluid from the tissues to the cardiovascular system. The function of the cardiovascular system is to oxygenate blood in the lungs and distribute the oxygenated blood to the tissues of the body. At the same time, carbon dioxide that accumulates as a result of metabolism of oxygen within the tissues is removed from the tissues and transported to the lungs where it is released from the blood and exhaled. The cardiovascular system comprises the heart, a muscular pump, and blood vessels. Arteries convey blood to thin-walled capillaries where gaseous exchange takes place and veins return blood to the heart. The cardiovascular system is often described as two parallel systems; the pulmonary circulation moves blood through the lungs and the systemic circulation circulates blood through the body. Trace the circulation of blood through the two systems in Figure 4.1 by following the arrows from the side of the heart coloured red. It follows a figure-of-eight (8) pattern with the two systems interlinked at the heart, the upper loop representing the pulmonary circulation and the lower loop the systemic circulation. The heart is a muscular pump driving blood at considerable pressure through arteries that get progressively smaller in both circulations until capillaries are reached. Arteries are sometimes dismissed as mere plumbing, but they play a vital role in regulating the blood flow through organs and tissues. Capillary walls are only one cell thick, allowing for the efficient diffusion of gases and small nutrient molecules to and from tissues. Waste gases and metabolites are also returned to the circulatory system through capillaries and these unite to form veins carrying blood under comparatively low pressure back to the heart. The heart comprises two muscular pumps arranged in parallel and beating in unison. As you can see in Figure 4.1, these two pumps are designated as the right and left sides of the heart. Each pump consists of two chambers, a thin-walled atrium that receives blood from one or other circulation and a thick-walled ventricle that ejects blood into the circulations.

The Challenges of Modernity - Stress, Obesity, Socially Significant Diseases require the search for opportunities for prevention and treatment through sources of nature. In the food chain of modern man there is a total shortage of "living photons" from the sun, nutrients supplied by primordial sources residing in the natural environment, giving the cell both nutritional and energy resources and information from the living environment of the plant world. Overweight, metabolic syndrome and the resulting complications such as hypertension, atherosclerosis and diabetes have been proven to be linked to the modern diet. It is a source of substances that support inflammatory processes in the body. Hippocrates has also said that food is our medicine. The Moringa oleifera plant has features that attract the attention of science from different fields. Moringa oleifera is grown in tropical and subtropical regions at an altitude of 0 to 2000 meters. The plant prefers well-drained clay and sandy soils. The birthplace of Moringa oleifera is the southern foothills of the Himalayas. The plant is widely cultivated in India. The leaders in the Moringa industry are Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. It is also cultivated in Africa, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Haiti and Taiwan, Southeast Asia, some US states, including Hawaii and various countries in Oceania, as well as in Peru, Paraguay, the Pacific, the Caribbean and South America. Traditionally, in these areas, the plant is used as food and medicine. In many poor regions, Moringa oleifera is a food source of proteins, vitamins and minerals. Moringa oleifera is used in traditional medicine in many societies as a medicine. The Ayurvedic healing system uses the plant to treat 300 diseases. In addition to food and medicine, Moringa oleifera is used to purify water in areas without drinking water sources, to produce oil that is used as a lubricant, as well as in paint. In ancient Egypt, it was prized for its moisturizing properties and later used by the Romans. It is known as a cosmetic for skin rejuvenation and production of perfumes and soaps. Moringa oleifera can be considered an important functional food - a source of substances important to the human body. The unusual properties and wide application of the plant in various fields of human life are of high scientific interest. The ability of Moringa oleifera to influence many of the present-day disease states has been proven. Almost all parts from Moringa can be used as a source for nutrition with other useful values.It has antioxidant properties, which are the basis of anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer effects, anti-dyslipidemic effect, effects of type 2 diabetes, anti-asthmatic, antibacterial, neuroprotective effect.
