Yoga RCT for cognition in residential care homes
PMC full-text record • 2013
Hariprasad VR, et al.
Quick takeaway
A randomized trial in residential care homes suggests yoga may improve several cognitive domains in older adults. It adds to the report's view that low-cost movement-based interventions may help both physical and cognitive ageing.
Why this matters
Included because it is India-specific, randomized, and aligns with culturally scalable prevention approaches.
Key caution
The trial adds stronger causal evidence, but sample size, setting, and follow-up still matter before generalizing widely.
