Physical Activity, yoga, immune responsesAbstract
Physical health and wellbeing are the most important and something most commonly and consciously taken care of nowadays, especially by youth. This study aims to justify the relationship between physical activity, yoga and immune system. Physical activity in humans is well known to show positive impacts on their physical health such as improved cardiovascular health, body fat management as well as mental health. The physical practice of Yoga, which includes various different postures and breathing processes, bring calm and peace to ones’ self. The immune system plays a pivotal role in protecting the body from harmful pathogen or bacteria/viruses which are not recognized by the body and can be harmful. Various studies show how physical activity and yoga can have positive impact on immune system. If analyzed separately, physical activity and immune system have a well-established relationship, regular exercise has been noted to improve overall immune health. Yoga, at the same time, has both movements and mindfulness that are found to have encouraging impacts on immune system. The research, thus, suggests how physical activity and yoga aid in healing both acute and chronic immune health issues.
