Physical Activity, Depression and Mental Health

Mehr zum Buch

The book explores the significant relationship between depression and mental health in elderly females, highlighting the impact of physical activity. It reveals that those engaged in regular exercise experience lower levels of depression and better mental health compared to sedentary peers. The context of inadequate healthcare facilities for the elderly in developing countries like India underlines the urgency of addressing mental health issues. While the role of physical activity in alleviating depression among the geriatric population is examined, the findings remain inconsistent.
