How Does Pranayama Minimize Atherosclerosis And Deposits In Coronary Arteries?

Can you provide a clinical correlation on how yogic breathing exercises like Pranayama minimize or reverse atherosclerosis and deposits in coronary arteries ? While it is true these lower LDL levels, can these yogic exerises actually reverse deposits?

Hai, Welcome to HCM

This clinical correlation may be due to a normalization of autonomic cardiovascular rhythms as a result of increased vagal modulation and/or decreased sympathetic activity and improved baroreflex sensitivity along with an augmentation of endogenous nitric oxide production.

To lower LDL levels & reverse deposits you may need not only Pranayama also you required to follow a healthy lifestyle, stress management , other yogic practices, exercises, balanced diet.

If you have any further questions I will be happy to help
