Zusammenfassung

Die koronare Herzkrankheit ist eine lebensstilassoziierte Erkrankung, die in den Indus­trienationen die Hauptursache für Todesfälle ausmacht.

Āyurveda und Yoga haben ein eigenes Verständnis der Pathogenese und Ätiologie, das aber wie in der westlichen Medizin die Bedeutung der Verhaltens- und Ernährungsweise anerkennt. Um die Erkrankung zu behandeln, muss der Patient seine Lebensweise in allen Aspekten nachhaltig ändern, insbesondere aber die Ernährung. Mit den Methoden des Yoga kann die notwendige Umstellung der entscheidenden Lebensstilaspekte gut unterstützt werden.

Abstract

The coronary heart disease is a lifestyle-related disease, which is the main cause of death in industrialized nations.Āyurveda and Yoga have their own conception of pathogenesis and etiology, but like Western medicine, they acknowledge the importance of behavior pattern and nutrition. In order to treat the disease, the patient has to change his way of living sustainably, especially his nutrition. The methods of Yoga are well suited to support the necessary change of the crucial aspects of lifestyle.
