Yoga may help keep weight off at mid-life	錕剿碉拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕劫?錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷狀態錕斤拷
The slow stretches and meditations of yoga don't burn calories like a run on the treadmill. But a new study suggests it might help people keep weight off in middle age. Researchers found that overweight people in their 50s who regularly practiced yoga lost about five pounds over 10 years, while a group in the same age range gained about 13 1/2 pounds over the same period. Middle-aged people of normal weight generally put on pounds over 10 years, but those who did yoga gained less weight than those who didn't practice yoga. The link between yoga and weight loss has nothing to do with burning calories, said Alan Kristal, one of the researchers from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center who co-authored the study. "Except for very strenuous yoga practices, you don't really burn enough energy to make any difference in terms of weight," said Kristal, who has practiced yoga for 10 years. Instead, he thinks yoga helps keep people more in tune with their bodies and eating habits and aware of bad habits, such as eating because of stress, boredom or depression. The researchers collected data from 15,500 people between the ages of 53 and 57 who were asked about exercise, weight, health and diet histories. The findings, published in the July/August issue of Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine, showed that those who practiced yoga tended to avoid junk food and overeating because they wanted to respect their bodies. Mary Imani, a yoga teacher at 8 Limbs Yoga Center, said it's difficult to eat heavily and do yoga. "It's hard to do certain movements when you've just had a slice of pizza," she said. Gary Miller, who studies obesity and weight loss at Wake Forest University in North Carolina, called the research encouraging, but said it's difficult to prove a direct influence from a single study. Most yoga fans say weight loss is just an added bonus from the disciplined form of meditation, controlled breathing and prescribed postures .   (Agencies)	錕斤拷錕劫な憋拷錕揭�锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕秸癸拷錕斤拷澹�锟藉K剿稼わ拷�，锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷揖錕斤拷紜ｏ拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷懿錕斤拷錕斤拷隙錕斤拷錕斤拷錕酵�锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷拇錕斤拷錕斤拷目錕鉸鳳拷錚�锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷碌錕揭伙拷錕斤拷芯錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷伽錕斤拷錕皆幫拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕剿鹼拷錕絞★拷 錕叫撅拷錕斤拷員錕斤拷錕街ｏ拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕劫わ拷錕?0錕斤拷錕斤拷姆錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕絞�锟藉K斤拷時錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕鉸斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷遙錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕酵�锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕轎★拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕劫わ拷錕斤拷說錕斤拷錕斤拷錕酵�锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕?3.5錕斤拷錕斤拷 一錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕截碉拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷十錕斤拷錕絞憋拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷囟錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷印錕斤拷錕斤拷牽錕斤拷錕叫╋拷錕較幫拷伽錕斤拷錕剿碉拷錕斤拷錕截比詫拷錕斤拷習錕劫わ拷錕斤拷說錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷擁錕斤拷佟錕? 錕斤拷錕階德★拷錕斤拷錕斤拷森錕斤拷癥錕叫撅拷錕斤拷錕僥碉拷錕叫撅拷錕斤拷員錕斤拷錕階★拷錕斤拷錕斤拷斯錕斤拷指錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷習錕劫わ拷薌錕斤拷什錕斤拷錕斤拷錕轎�锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷絲錕鉸鳳拷鎩ｏ拷錕酵�蕩旁尶藉K斤拷錕捷憋拷錕斤拷墓錕酵�撰锟藉K斤拷恕錕? 錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕截憋拷錕斤拷業錕斤拷伽錕剿訛拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷實錕斤拷錕斤拷錕僥碉拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕皆鹼拷錕絞★拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷斯錕斤拷說錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷習錕劫わ拷丫錕斤拷錕?0錕斤拷錕剿★拷 實錕斤拷錕較ｏ拷錕斤拷錕斤拷為錕斤拷習錕劫わ拷錕斤拷錕絞癸拷舜錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷玫錕斤拷錕斤拷錕階刺�锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷紙錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕絞誠幫拷擼錕斤拷錕街癸拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕較幫拷擼錕斤拷錕斤拷錕轎�压锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷櫸籌拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕狡訛拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷食錕斤拷 錕叫撅拷錕斤拷員錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷15500錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕?3錕斤拷57錕斤拷錕斤拷芊錕斤拷擼錕斤拷杉錕斤拷舜錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷藎錕斤拷錕斤拷錕較稈�锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕截★拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷食錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷泄氐錕斤拷芯錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕節★拷錕斤拷錕斤拷品錕斤拷錕斤拷錕街撅拷錕?錕斤拷8錕鉸合匡拷錕較★拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕較幫拷伽錕斤拷錕斤拷錕杰癸拷錕斤拷錕斤拷識錕截詫拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷食品錕斤拷錕斤拷錕皆得癸拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷為錕斤拷錕角非籌拷錕斤拷惜錕皆鹼拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕藉。 錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕節幫拷支錕劫わ拷錕斤拷牡錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕剿碉拷錕斤拷錕皆碉拷太錕斤拷禿錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷伽錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷粘錕斤拷錕揭黃�锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕絞憋拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕餃ワ拷錕僥承╋拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕剿碉拷錕? 錕斤拷錕斤·錕斤拷錕斤拷錕節憋拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷森錕街達拷學錕斤拷錕鉸鳳拷錕街和鹼拷錕絞鳳拷錕斤拷錕斤拷芯錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕叫撅拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷模錕斤拷錕酵�时锟藉K街革拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕矯匆伙拷錕斤拷芯錕斤拷錕斤拷錕街わ拷錕斤拷錕斤拷伽錕皆鹼拷錕斤拷錕斤拷直錕斤拷影錕屆。 錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷伽錕斤拷錕斤拷錕竭憋拷示錕斤拷錕斤拷錕絞詫拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕劫わ拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷棧瘢�毕惧K斤拷錕斤拷伽錕斤拷錕斤拷使錕斤拷錕叫癸拷錕繳的斤拷錕斤拷錕剿鹼拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷�、锟藉K斤拷錕斤拷錕斤拷玫錕階刺�锟藉K? 錕斤拷錕叫癸拷錕秸憋拷錕斤拷站錕誡）
