4. EXERCISE
Benefits of Exercise
It's no news that exercise can help manage depression, but now there's evidence that regular workouts may be just as effective as antidepressant medications. Researchers at Duke University tested people with major depressive disorder and found that a moderate exercise program (30 minutes, three times a week) reduced depression just as much as drugs. The medications produced results more quickly, but after 16 weeks the exercise effect caught up, according to the study, published in the Archives of Internal Medicine. "Exercise causes the brain to produce serotonin, a neurotransmitter that can reduce depression, and it can also give a person a greater sense of mastery and pride," says James Blumenthal, Ph.D., one of the study authors. Prozac's just faster than pushups.
