Can Yoga Lower Your Blood Pressure? A Systematic Review of 15 Clinical Trials

0:00 35:23

About This Episode

This 2025 systematic review of 15 clinical trials demonstrates that regular yogic practices—including specific Asanas, Pranayama, and Yoga Nidra—positively influence key biochemical markers such as lipid profiles and oxidative stress. The findings suggest that yoga acts as an effective, non-pharmacological adjunctive therapy for lowering systolic and diastolic blood pressure in hypertensive patients.
