The new study proves that "special yoga exercises" for people with Type 2 diabetes can help keep blood sugar levels in the body to be stable and reduce the complications of diabetes.
The study studied 123 adults with age middle-aged / elderly people with type 2 diabetes. Those who take a yoga class with a combination of movements and poses for the treatment of diabetes experienced a reduction in body weight to normal levels as well as blood pressure. For those who do not take a yoga class, his sugar levels showed an increase.
A noteworthy from this study is to perform yoga movements provide a very positive effect on blood sugar levels for type 2 diabetics, and found to also reduce the effect of "oxidized" stress on the body. For the group who perform yoga exercises, found a 20% reduction of oxidative stress in the blood.
Oxidative stress occurs when free radicals damage cells. If this is unchecked, oxidative stress can lead to other chronic diseases, including heart disease and cancer.
Keep in mind, reducing levels of oxidative stress is not meant to reverse diabetic state itself, but rather reduce the complications caused by diabetes; among which heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, and diseases of the eye - nearsightedness.
Thus, for diabetics who want an alternative treatment, all very well to begin the practice of yoga. Look for experienced instructors who know about yoga therapy and the use of yoga props (yoga therapy in general use yoga props to help establish correct alignment, or her position to a more simple yoga poses).
