The global prevalence of diabetes among adults over 18 years of age has risen from 4.7% in 1980 to 8.5% in 2014. Diabetes prevalence has been rising more rapidly in middle- and low-income countries. The prevalence of diabetes in the age group of 20 to 79 years stood at nearly 9% of the population in India. The greatest number of people with diabetes is between 40 to 59 years of age. One of the best remedial activity to manage this fatal life style is yoga.
