Fight or prevent depression with exercise

Run to happinessEvery year millions of people get prescribed anti depressives, but the first option to get rid of depression should be exercise. Because even a little exercise increases the amount of a stimulating compound called phenethylamine in the brain. Depressed people have very little of this substance which gives you a feeling of euphoria. This substance is also found in some foods, chocolate for example.

    Yay for exercise! Thanks for spreading the word - it’s the most underrated cure for depression. Even if it means walking 10-20 minutes a day!
