About this deal
Bikram yoga does have some potential dangers. The profuse sweating involved in the practice can lead to dehydrationif practitioners don't drink enough water. A 2012 study in the British Medical Journal Case Reportsdescribed a woman who developed seizures and went into a coma after losing so much salt through profuse sweating in a Bikram yoga class. And the increased flexibility can actually be a bad thing, because it can make practitioners prone to overstretching that can facilitate strains and sprains, wrote William J. Broad in " The Science of Yoga: The Risks and the Rewards" (Simon & Schuster, 2012). Generally, if someone starts feeling nauseated, dizzy or otherwise ill during a Bikram yoga class, it's a good idea to have some water and take a break.
