Yoga in Cardiovascular Disease and Rehabilitation: Integrating Complementary Medicine into Cardiovascular Medicine highlights recent research, clinical trials and experiments on yoga and meditation as a preventative measure against various major cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary artery disease and metabolic syndromes.
Chapters discuss yoga's role in ameliorating cardiac dysfunction and current knowledge on the effects of yoga on the brain, emotion, and other factors that initiate and perpetuate vascular inflammation. Cellular, genetic, and molecular effects of yoga based on experimental evidence are also covered in detail, providing readers with the latest research on the effects of yoga and meditation in heart diseases.
This book also explores current knowledge gaps in yoga research to facilitate further research and is a comprehensive reference to scientists and clinicians interested in yoga's health effects, including preventing and treating diseases.
