Exercise Helps Depression

Everyone knows the basic benefits of exercise, but it doesn't mean that everyone applies it daily. When you are feeling hopeless and sad, exercise is one of the best things that you can do, even though it may be the last thing that you want to do. The following article goes over how exercising helps those with depression.

One group of 95 adults ages 20 to 45 showed that aerobic exercise was an effective treatment for mild to moderate depression, according to a 2005 study in the American Journal of Preventative Medicine. In addition, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services found that exercise can help guard against the onset of depression and reduce some of depression's negative effects.
