Question

Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence.
Yoga may manage pain and helping reduce stress.

The correct answer is

help in reducing

The phrase "helping reduce" is incorrect in this context. The correct construction should be "help in reducing" because "help in" is followed by a gerund (-ing form). "Helped reduce" changes the tense, "help reduction for" is grammatically incorrect, and "help reduced" is incorrect as "reduced" is a past participle. Therefore, "help in reducing" is the best choice.
