what yoga style is good to control glucose intake

Ans: To control glucose levels and manage diabetes, yoga can be highly beneficial, as it helps improve insulin sensitivity, balance blood sugar levels, and enhance overall well-being.

Specific Yoga Poses for Glucose Control:
Setu Bandhasana (Bridge Pose): Stimulates the pancreas and improves blood circulation.
Dhanurasana (Bow Pose): Strengthens the abdominal muscles and improves insulin production.
Vrikshasana (Tree Pose): Enhances balance and reduces stress, which is important for controlling blood sugar levels.
Paschimottanasana (Seated Forward Bend): Stretches the pancreas and aids in glucose metabolism.
Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation): A sequence of poses that enhances overall body function and improves glucose utilization.
In addition to these, Pranayama (breathing exercises) like Anulom Vilom and Bhastrika are excellent for managing stress and improving lung and heart function, which indirectly helps control blood sugar levels.

Incorporating these practices into a daily routine, along with dietary and lifestyle changes, can support better glucose control and overall health.

How to increase insulin by yoga?

Ans: Yoga can be very effective in helping the body use insulin more efficiently and manage blood sugar levels naturally. While yoga doesn’t directly "increase" insulin, certain poses, breathing techniques, and practices improve insulin sensitivity, which means your cells use insulin better.

Here are some specific practices that may help:

Kapalbhati Pranayama (Skull-Shining Breath): This breathing technique stimulates the pancreas, helping regulate insulin production and improve metabolism. Start with 1-2 minutes daily, gradually increasing as comfortable.

Twisting Poses: Poses like Ardha Matsyendrasana (Half Lord of the Fishes Pose) and Supta Matsyendrasana (Supine Twist) gently massage the pancreas, helping regulate insulin levels.

Dhanurasana (Bow Pose) and Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose): These backbends stimulate abdominal organs, including the pancreas, supporting better insulin function.

Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutations): Practicing Sun Salutations slowly and mindfully can boost overall circulation and metabolism, which helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

It’s best to practice these poses with a coach to ensure proper technique. With guidance and regular practice, yoga can be a valuable part of managing insulin sensitivity.

Sir i have got cse category 2 in vit bhopal and it in jss university noida which is not affiliated with aktu while i asked the jss cell they said that the labs will be better and the professor will be same i cam. Confused as their first batch has not even passed but jss is reputable in north india while vit bhopal i have heard is not a good option by my peers and seniors pls tell me

Ans: Choose VIT Bhopal CSE if you prioritize established brand recognition, proven placement records, dedicated infrastructure, and can manage the higher fees and campus restrictions. The FFCS system and centralized placement opportunities provide significant advantages despite location and hostel challenges.

Choose JSS University Noida IT if you value location advantages, potentially lower fees, and access to NCR's IT ecosystem. However, carefully verify the degree's recognition, placement guarantees, and long-term career prospects given its unproven status as an independent institution.

Given the uncertainty surrounding JSS University's first batch and lack of independent track record, VIT Bhopal CSE remains the safer choice despite its acknowledged challenges, provided you can secure Category 1 fees or have adequate financial resources for Category 2. If possible, please provide your entrance exam scores and your 12th-grade score. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Can i participate in spot round of jac delhi counselling after retaining my seat in an iit in 6th round josaa counselling? Career

Ans: Aditya, Candidates who have already secured and retained a seat in an IIT through JoSAA are considered admitted to a participating institute and therefore are not eligible for JAC Delhi’s spot round, which is reserved exclusively for candidates who are registered but have not been admitted to any JAC-participating institute. JAC Delhi does not permit fresh registrations, and only those without any confirmed seat after the upgrade processes may physically attend the spot round at DTU’s Ambedkar Auditorium by submitting the requisite documents and demand draft.

Mbbs vs pes engineering which is better

Ans: Whether MBBS or Engineering (specifically from PES University, as mentioned in the search) is "better" depends entirely on individual interests and career goals. Both fields offer lucrative career paths, but MBBS generally requires a longer duration of study and is more focused on healthcare, while engineering offers more diverse specializations and potentially earlier entry into the workforce.
