Description 638-643
Obesity is a state of energy imbalance characterized by inflammation, dysregulated autonomic nervous
system function, altered brown adipose tissue activity, basal metabolic rate alterations, and changes at the
psychological level. Adipose tissue is not only a metabolic organ but also an endocrine organ. Adipokines
released by the fat cells play an important role in regulating the local metabolic processes and maintaining the
homeostasis between food intake and energy balance. The most common pro-inflammatory cytokines involved
are TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1, leptin, adiponectin, resistin, visfatin, irisin, which are involved in the pathophysiology of
obesity. Yoga as lifestyle-based intervention influences the adipokine levels, autonomic nervous system
functioning, brown adipose tissue activity, basal metabolic rate, and stress levels in the body. With this, yoga
can help bring back the energy balance and weight management in obese individuals.
