“…Besides, quality research should be assured by following good laboratory practices (GLP) so that the evidence produced is reliable and can be implemented. 18 Training of Tutors and Educating Children― A special policy can be made for the training of tutors where teachers are trained in yoga and related techniques, including the benefits, practices, and adaptations in daily routine to make it a lifestyle.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are diseases or body ailments that cannot be communicated or transferred to another person through physical or biological contact. NCDs pose a greater threat to human society more than communicable diseases. NCDs are challenging to treat and are characterized as chronic. However, some chronic diseases, such as cervical cancer, are caused by viral infections as an exception. These diseases have a prolonged course. NCDs usually have complex etiology, and it is difficult to trace the exact cause of these diseases. NCDs can also be called multi-factorial diseases, that is, they have multiple risk factors. NCDs are challenging to diagnose at the early stages of the disease and are generally diagnosed after causing significant damage and at the late stages of the disease. The disease keeps spreading during the latent period. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), nearly 41 million people succumb to the burden of NCDs. Out of all the global deaths, 74% occur because of NCDs. 1 Classification of NCDsNCDs are commonly classified as seven types of disorders. These diseases are mostly life-threatening. Diabetes is an NCD that mainly occurs as a result of a sedentary lifestyle. Other types of NCDs are chronic respiratory disease, cancer, cardiovascular disorders (such as stroke and coronary heart disease), musculoskeletal disorders (such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and multiple sclerosis)/arthritis, chronic neurological disorders, and unintentional injuries because of certain accidents that result in permanent physical or mental disabilities (Figure 1).

“…Asanas , Pranayama , and Dhyana ), partly due to the dissociation of basic scientists from yoga practitioners and partly due to absence of quality assurance programs that govern compliance in yoga intervention studies. Such quality assurance programs are often done in research laboratories and it is called good laboratory practice,[ 108 109 ] and such practices are absent in yoga research. Few studies from reputed research groups show adherence to quality assurance principles.…”

Conflicts and humanitarian crises lead to serious mental health disorders, including depression, anxiety, stress, and cognitive decline. Exposure to these circumstances in early life can lead to the development of disorders such as mild cognitive impairment, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease (AD), for which no treatments are available. In this review, various research papers have been compiled to develop an understanding about mental health of population affected due to wars and conflicts and how stress and depression can accelerate the development of dementia and AD. Due to failure of drugs in the treatment of dementia and AD, yoga and mindfulness-based approach has been proposed for future investigations. Although studies have shown that yoga and mindfulness can be helpful in the management of stress, anxiety, depression, and posttraumatic stress disorder in the war-afflicted areas, limited mechanistic studies in yoga and mindfulness remain the chief cause precluding its clinical application in such warzones. The molecular studies in the field of yoga can be undertaken by targeting these warzones. This review provides a scientific evaluation of mind–body techniques as a justification for mental health rehabilitation in the war-afflicted zones in face of failed clinical trials for various drugs. This may help reduce the risk of developing dementia and AD in this susceptible population.
