1. Exercise can help improve depression.

Explanation

Regular exercise has been shown to have a positive impact on mental health, including depression. Physical activity stimulates the release of endorphins, which are known as "feel-good" hormones that can improve mood and reduce symptoms of depression. Exercise also increases the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which are involved in regulating mood and emotions. Additionally, engaging in exercise can provide a distraction from negative thoughts and help individuals gain a sense of accomplishment and self-esteem. Overall, exercise is considered an effective and natural way to alleviate symptoms of depression.
