Model Answer

Error: not good / Correction: harmful (or "bad")

(The sentence should read: "…all of which are harmful for your heart and blood vessels.")

Explanation

The sentence states Yoga helps lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar — meaning these elevated levels are harmful, not merely "not good." The error is the use of the vague negative phrase "not good"; the precise correction is "harmful" (or "bad/detrimental"). Examiners expect you to state the exact error word/phrase and the corrected word/phrase clearly in the prescribed format.
