Feeling blue? Then go green. Researchers from Essex University in the UK say enjoying some exercise in the great outdoors could perk up your mental health according to a report on BBC News (1 May 2010).
The study looked at the evidence of ten studies involving 1,250 people.
Commenting on the findings, Paul Farmer, of UK mental health charity MIND, said: "It's important that people experiencing depression can be given the option of a range of treatments, and we would like to see all doctors considering exercise as a treatment where appropriate."
