Strike a fine balance with yoga to reduce cardiac ailments
Air Pollution has become major factors causing heart attacks especially major cities.
Earlier hypertension and cholesterol were attributed as cause of heart attacks but recently cardiologists have realized that air pollution has become major factor for heart attacks even for the people who are in their 30s.

The major factor of rehabilitation through yoga will be cost effective, beneficial to all income group, no need for any high-cost infrastructure.
Recent presentation at American Heart Association, clinical trial was done on patients who suffered heart attack 14 days before the trial including patients who had undergone stenting and angiogram procedures.
Though the physicians were skeptical initially but when the results proved them wrong and also demonstrated the effectiveness of yoga with concrete evidence.
The quality of life also changed for better for all the patients who underwent yoga trial.
Generally, the cardiac patients are more prone to sympathetic reactions and after sessions with yoga it has helped them control on reacting to such situations by enhancing neurological functions.
