Exercise as Effective as Medication for Treating Depression

 

This article discusses a recent study that found that exercise can be as effective as medication in treating depression. The study, conducted by researchers at the University of Limerick in Ireland, found that exercise was just as effective as antidepressant medication in reducing symptoms of depression.

 The study also found that exercise was more effective than medication in reducing anxiety. The researchers suggest that exercise should be considered as a viable treatment option for depression, especially for those who cannot take medication or who do not respond to medication.
