Yoga-based lifestyle intervention for healthy ageing phenotype (yHAP)

GeroScience • 2024

Snigdha A, et al.

Open source

Quick takeaway

A 26-week randomized trial in Bengaluru tested a yoga-based lifestyle program across multiple healthy-ageing domains. It stood out because it combined functional outcomes with biomarker signals and explicit trial reporting standards.

Why this matters

High-ranked because it is India-specific, randomized, open access, and directly relevant to practical healthy-ageing prevention.

Key caution

The intervention is complex and was run in a single city, so routine PHC replication may be harder than the headline result suggests.
