A new study has found that regular exercise can help improve mental health in young adults. The study, conducted by researchers at the University of Indonesia, showed that participants who engaged in physical activity at least three times a week reported lower levels of stress, anxiety, and depression compared to those who did not exercise regularly.
The researchers believe that the endorphins released during exercise play a key role in boosting mood and reducing feelings of psychological distress. They recommend incorporating exercise into daily routines as a way to improve overall mental well-being.
This study highlights the importance of physical activity not just for physical health, but also for mental well-being. Experts suggest that young adults should aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise each week to experience the mental health benefits.
