Yoga and meditation reduce our risk of cancer by changing our DNA,
Practising mind-body interventions (MBI), like as yoga, meditation and Tai Chi, produce lower amounts of molecules that enable inflammation-causing genes.
MBIs enable the brain to steer our DNA processes along a path which improves health.
Inflammation has been linked to cancer, accelerated ageing and poor mental health.
Researchers analysed 18 studies with 846 participants conducted over 11 years. Studies were included in the analysis if they measured gene expression after a MBI.
Reserchers discovered that people who practice MBIs produce lower amounts of molecules that enable inflammation-causing genes.
