India, Dec. 29 -- Irritable bowel syndrome, commonly known as IBS, affects the digestive system and can cause symptoms like bloating, gas, abdominal pain, constipation, or diarrhea. Stress, irregular eating habits, and a sensitive gut often make these symptoms worse. While medication and diet changes are important, gentle lifestyle practices can also play a major role. Yoga is one such approach that works on both the body and mind. Certain yoga poses help stimulate digestion, reduce abdominal tension, and calm the nervous system, which is closely linked to gut health. Research suggests that mind-body practices like yoga may improve IBS symptoms by lowering stress and supporting better digestive function when practiced regularly.
