| Abstract: | The article reports that Iyengar yoga can improve breast cancer patients' feelings of well-being and reduce inflammation triggered by therapy. Researcher Pamela E. Schultz of Washington State University suspects the yoga produced a dramatic immune system change, as yoga-practicing patients had less of an inflammation-aggravating immune system agent in their blood cells. |
