Yoga intervention for 10 weeks significantly reduced DNA damage indicators in T2D subjects, including Tail Moment (-5.88; P = .013) and Olive Tail Moment (-2.93; P < .01).
Yoga may be an effective intervention for reducing DNA damage in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

At the end of the 10th week, Yoga group showed significant reduction in DNA damage indicators like Tail Moment (-5.88[95%CI: -10.47 to -1.30]; P = .013) and Olive Tail Moment (-2.93[95%CI: -4.87 to -1.00]; P < .01).
Why this rating
