Abstract: Abstract Background: Metabolic imbalances along with endocrine issues are very much prevalent in middle-aged women. Weight gain, fatigue and increased BMI are manifested often in middle aged women. These changes often lead to chronic inflammation which increases the risk of metabolic complications such as Insulin resistance, NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) and cardiovascular disorders. Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the impact of yoga, diet and their combined intervention on CRP (C-reactive Protein) & BMI in middle-aged women. Methods Eighteen women, aged 40-45 years were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups (n=6 each); Yoga group; Diet group, Yoga + diet Group. Yoga group received yoga intervention which included Suryanamaskar, Pawanamuktasan, Bhujangasana, pranayama and guided relaxation. The diet group followed an anti-inflammatory dietary intervention for 12 weeks The yoga +diet group received both interventions simultaneously for 12 weeks Pre and post intervention CRP levels and BMI were recorded and analysed using appropriate statistical tools. Results: Post-intervention adjusted mean CRP levels were 1.75mg/L (Yoga), 1.125 mg/L (Diet), and 1.925mg/L (Yoga & Diet). BMI values were 25.80(yoga), 26.24(Diet), and 24.57(yoga+Diet) . One-way ANOVA showed significant differences for both BMI and CRP (p<0.05) (p < 0.05). Tukey’s post hoc test confirmed that the Yoga & Diet group had significantly lower CRP and BMI compared to the other two groups, indicating a synergistic effect. Conclusions: The study concludes that although yoga and diet independently contribute to the reduction of CRP and BMI levels, their combined application yields significantly greater benefits. This suggests that integrated lifestyle interventions may serve as effective adjunct therapies for improving inflammatory status and BMI which may positively influence metabolic health among middle-aged women.
