Psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology-based meditation (pneimed) training reduces salivary cortisol under basal and stressful conditions in healthy university students: results of a randomized controlled study

CONCLUSIONAlthough the low number of subjects enrolled in the study does not allow for definitive conclusions to be drawn, the present findings confirmed the capability of the PNEIMED method to lower stress hormone secretion both at baseline and under acute mental stimulation in a group of young naïve practitioners and make a contribution to the existing literature by increasing the number of published RCTs about the topic.
