Yoga is an ancient system of wellness with Asana and Pranayama as its most popular and propagated modules for management of lifestyle disorders.
The aim of the study was to characterise the liver abnormalities, biochemical changes, and stress levels after Yoga intervention in prediabetic females.
37 females were randomly divided into Yoga practising and non-practising control groups. The Yoga practising group performed Diabetic Yoga Protocol (DYP) for 3 months. Parameters including size of liver, fatty infiltration, and grade of severity were measured using ultrasonography along with biochemical parameters and stress levels at baseline and after Yoga practice.
The glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and glucose levels were found significantly reduced in prediabetic (p = 0.015) women after practising DYP, although cholesterol levels increased in menopausal women. No escalation of fatty liver was noted among women practising DYP.
DYP reduced the HbA1c and stress levels and therefore, could be a cost-effective tool for preventing prediabetes to diabetes progression.
瑜伽是一种古老的健康体系,体式和调息法是其最受欢迎且传播最广的用于管理生活方式紊乱的模块。
本研究的目的是对糖尿病前期女性进行瑜伽干预后的肝脏异常、生化变化和压力水平进行特征描述。
37名女性被随机分为瑜伽练习组和非练习对照组。瑜伽练习组进行为期3个月的糖尿病瑜伽方案(DYP)。使用超声测量包括肝脏大小、脂肪浸润和严重程度等级等参数,同时在基线和瑜伽练习后测量生化参数和压力水平。
在练习DYP后,糖尿病前期女性的糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)和血糖水平显著降低(p = 0.015),尽管绝经后女性的胆固醇水平有所升高。练习DYP的女性中未发现脂肪肝加重。
DYP降低了HbA1c和压力水平,因此,可能是预防糖尿病前期向糖尿病进展的一种经济有效的工具。
