Abstract

INFLUENCE OF YOGA PRACTICE ON SELECTED BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS IN HYPERTENSIVE MEN AGED 40–60

ABSTRACT

This randomized experimental study investigated the impact of a structured yoga programme on selected biochemical parameters among hypertensive middle-aged men. The researchers proposed that regular participation in yoga would lead to significant improvements in biochemical health indicators. A total of 30 hypertensive men between 40 and 50 years of age from Udumalaipettai were randomly divided into two groups: an experimental group (n = 15), which participated in yoga training, and a control group (n = 15), which continued with active rest and did not practice yoga. The intervention consisted of supervised sessions of selected asanas, pranayama, and relaxation techniques conducted five days per week. Measurements of serum total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglycerides, fasting blood glucose, and blood pressure were recorded before and after the 12-week training period. The collected data were analysed using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA), with the level of significance fixed at 0.05. The findings revealed that participants in the yoga group demonstrated significant improvements in several biochemical variables compared with the control group. In particular, HDL levels increased, while LDL levels decreased, accompanied by favourable reductions in triglycerides and fasting glucose levels. No intervention-related adverse effects were observed during the study. The results supported the research hypothesis, indicating that yoga can positively influence biochemical and metabolic health among hypertensive middle-aged men. The study concluded that yoga may be an effective complementary therapeutic approach for improving metabolic risk factors in this population, although further research with larger sample sizes and extended follow-up periods is recommended.
