Kirtan Helps Fight Alzheimer's

                A three month course in yoga and meditation, particularly the age-old Indian practice of Kirtan, may help boost memory and fight Alzheimer’s, American scientists have said. A team of neuroscientists from UCLA have found that yoga and meditation help minimize cognitive and emotional problems that often precede Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. The researchers also discovered that they were even more effective than the memory enhancement exercises considered the gold standard for managing mild cognitive impairment.
