The chances of developing type 2 diabetes depend on a combination of risk factors. People are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes mellitus if they are overweight or obese, over the age of 35, have poor eating and exercise habits, daily stress, and/or have a family history of diabetes. Yoga offers holistic solutions to the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus and its complications involving lifestyle changes such as various asanas, changes in diet, and management of stress and meditation. Various studies suggest that yoga can improve the risk of these complications in adults with type 2 diabetes. Studies also revealed that the human body needs a certain amount of fat in the diet to stay healthy. Eating the wrong kind of fat can trigger health hazards. A well-balanced vegetarian diet has proven to be extraordinarily healthy and cures many diseases including diabetes. The effect of yoga incorporating asanas, pranayam, meditation, kriyas, sattvic diet and mental discipline is beneficial to patients of type 2 DM. Stress and sedentary lifestyle are the leading causes of type 2 diabetes. Yoga has been shown to be quite effective in managing blood sugar levels. It helps activate the internal organs like the pancreas and build strength. Moreover, pranayama exercises are very helpful and beneficial for lowering blood glucose. In the current communication, an attempt has been made to explain the importance of yoga in overcoming problems related to type 2 diabetes.
