Good health can be maintained through two key players which are diet and exercise. Yoga is one of the best ways to stay fit and healthy. It can improve health, flexibility, strength, posture, and so much more. According to studies, nutrition and Yoga have many overlapping advantages, including improved digestion, stress management, mindfulness, increased energy, and even detoxification. Yoga is all about taking deep breaths and building physical strength. Thus, a person should pay attention to his or her eating habits as well, so that the body is not involved in intensive digestive activity.

Yoga is a holistic philosophy that attempts to cleanse, strengthen, and develop all levels of our human existence. Good nutrition not only benefits our yoga practice, but it also benefits our whole mental and physical wellness. Because many yoga postures involve bending the abdomen, those who practice yoga tend to adopt healthful eating habits. A study conducted in the United States found that young American adults who practiced Yoga daily were more attentive to choosing healthy foods, which lowered their food cravings. With people's sedentary lifestyles, especially in urban areas, and an increasing incidence of NCDs, yoga, together with good nutrition, can be highly beneficial for those living in a developing country like India.
