Shahid Beheshti University Journal of Sport and Exercise Physiology 2676-3710 7 2 2015 02 20 The Effect of 12-Week Yoga Selected Exercise on Fasting Glucose, Glycosylate dHemoglobin and Lipid Profile in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes The Effect of 12-Week Yoga Selected Exercise on Fasting Glucose, Glycosylate dHemoglobin and Lipid Profile in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes 98728 10.48308/joeppa.2015.98728 FA Journal Article 2015 12 09 Background: The aim of the present study is the effect of 12 weeks of yoga selected exercises on fasting glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin and lipid profile in premenopausal women with diabetes type 2. Methodology: Thirty females with diabetes type 2 and a mean age of (46/8±3/3 years), weight (69/7±17/1 kg), height (155/0±5/0 cm), BMI (29/6±5/0 kg per square meter) and with 6/4±2/6 years of illness were selected based on specific criteria in research and were divided in two groups of yoga practice (n=15) and control group (n=12). Experimental group’ exercise program lasted for 12 weeks, three sessions per week and each session 90 minutes. Fasting glucose levels (FBS), Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), triglyceride (TG), lipoprotein with high density (HDL-C), lipoprotein with low-density (LDL-C), lipoprotein with very low density (VLDL) and total cholesterol of the participants were measured 48 hours before the exercise and 48 hours after the exercise protocol. Results: This results of the study showed that yoga practice for 12 weeks significantly decreased fasting glucose concentration (p=0/000), Glycosylated hemoglobin (p=0.034), LDL (p=0/009), VLDL (p=0/027) and significantly increased in the concentration of HDL (p=0/003) in females with diabetes type 2. Conclusion: 12-weeks yoga exercise improves glucose levels, Glycosylated hemoglobin and HDL, LDL and VLDL of the blood and probably the period of practice in these patients should be increased for a greater impact on triglycerides and total cholesterol.
