Abstract

The purpose of the Study was to measure the effect of Pranayam on level of Hemoglobin. The sample consisted of twenty undergraduate college girls age ranged from 18–22 years from Govt. P.G. College, Ambala Cantt. The Subjects were divided in to two groups i.e. Control group (n=10) & experimental group (n=10). Initial test of Hemoglobin was conducted to all subjects. In training of Pranayam we included Anulom- Vilom, Kapabhati, Bhramani, Ujjayi and Om recitation sixty min. for each session of the day. The subjects of the control group did not practice in the above programme. However they were kept busy with interesting activity separately during the experimental period. After one month of training of Pranayam final test was conducted to all the subjects. The obtained data were analyzed by using T-ratio. It was found that the practice of Pranayam elevated the level of Hemoglobin of under graduate College girls.
