Obesity Medicine

Yoga and Naturopathy

Yoga and naturopathy offer complementary approaches for obesity management by promoting physical activity, stress reduction, and holistic well-being. Yoga improves flexibility, muscle strength, and cardiovascular health while reducing stress, emotional eating, and cortisol levels. Breathing exercises, meditation, and mindfulness practices enhance mental health and support behavioral change in weight management. Naturopathy focuses on natural therapies, including dietary adjustments, detoxification, herbal remedies, and lifestyle modification, aiming to restore balance and optimize metabolic health. Integrating these approaches with conventional medical treatments can enhance weight loss outcomes and improve overall physical and mental well-being. Research supports yoga and naturopathy as effective adjuncts in obesity prevention and treatment, particularly for long-term maintenance and stress-related weight issues. Multidisciplinary collaboration ensures these therapies complement conventional medical interventions safely and effectively.
