Moving your body might heal your mind better than medicine.

A new study of 128,119 people has revealed something powerful, exercise outperformed pharmacy treatments when it came to easing depression. Not slightly. Significantly. The results showed that people who moved more, whether walking, running, or dancing, experienced far greater relief than those relying solely on antidepressants.

Here’s why it works. When you move, your brain releases endorphins and serotonin, chemicals that lift your mood and reduce anxiety. Your muscles send signals that tell your brain you’re safe, alive, and in control. Even 15 minutes of movement a day can begin to shift your mental state, like light breaking through heavy clouds.

This doesn’t mean medication doesn’t matter. For many, it’s essential. But this research reminds us that your body isn’t just something to carry your mind around, it’s part of the cure. Movement is medicine. The gym, the park, or even your living room floor can be your healing space.

Next time your thoughts feel heavy, take a walk. Science says your brain will thank you.

The human body has an incredible built-in survival mechanism that activates when it experiences hunger. During periods without food, the body triggers a process known as autophagy, which literally means “self-eating.” This natural cellular recycling system allows the body to remove damaged, sick, and aging cells while generating new, healthy ones. Autophagy is essential for maintaining optimal health, supporting longevity, and preventing a range of diseases including neurodegenerative conditions, infections, and even some forms of cancer.

Research shows that controlled fasting or calorie restriction can stimulate autophagy, giving the body a chance to repair itself at a cellular level. This process not only cleanses the body internally but also improves metabolic efficiency, boosts energy, and strengthens the immune system. Experts believe that harnessing the power of autophagy could play a significant role in preventive health strategies and regenerative medicine.

Understanding this hidden cleansing process highlights the remarkable resilience of the human body and its ability to heal itself naturally. By respecting the body’s rhythms and occasionally allowing it to enter this state, we can potentially extend lifespan and improve overall wellness.

यस वर्षको राष्ट्रिय नारा — “विपद्को समयमा मानसिक स्वास्थ्य” — ले हामीलाई विपद्को बेला उद्धार र राहत जत्तिकै मानसिक स्वास्थ्यको हेरचाह महत्वपूर्ण हुन्छ भन्ने कुरा सम्झाउँछ ।
विपद्को बेला डर र तनावका बीच पनि एकअर्काको
मानसिक स्वास्थ्य हरेक व्यक्तिको अधिकार हो — विपद्का बेला मानसिक स्वास्थ्यलाई अझ बढी प्राथमिकता दिनुपर्ने आवश्यकता हुन्छ ।

Negativity is more than just a mood, it might reflect the way our brain processes information. A recent study found that individuals who consistently display hatred, hostility, or negative attitudes toward others tend to score lower on measures of cognitive ability, including IQ tests. This research sheds light on the complex relationship between emotional behavior and intellectual functioning.

Psychologists suggest that a mindset dominated by negativity can impair critical thinking and problem-solving. When someone is focused on resentment or anger, cognitive resources that could be used for analysis, creativity, and decision-making are often consumed by emotional regulation and rumination. In other words, constant hostility doesn’t just affect social relationships; it may limit one’s ability to think clearly and adapt to new information.

The study highlights that positivity and openness are not just beneficial for mental health—they are linked to cognitive flexibility and better reasoning. People who cultivate empathy, curiosity, and balanced emotional responses often demonstrate higher intellectual engagement and problem-solving skills. This research emphasizes that our mental and emotional habits can shape not only our relationships but also the efficiency of our thinking processes.

While intelligence is influenced by a range of factors including genetics, education, and environment, behavioral patterns like chronic negativity appear to play a notable role. Understanding this connection could inform interventions aimed at fostering emotional well-being, social harmony, and cognitive development.

In essence, the way we think about and treat others can have profound effects on both our social lives and our mental capacities. Developing empathy, reducing hostility, and embracing constructive thinking may not only improve relationships but could also enhance cognitive performance over time.

🍬 Sugar, not cholesterol, may be the bigger threat to your heart.

A major 15-year study published in JAMA Internal Medicine reveals that consuming high levels of added sugar more than doubles the risk of dying from heart disease — regardless of your weight, cholesterol levels, age, or activity level.

📊 People who consumed 25% or more of daily calories from added sugar had over twice the risk of cardiovascular death compared to those who kept it under 10%. Shockingly, this elevated risk persisted even among those following otherwise healthy diets.

🚨 The leading sources of added sugar are sugary drinks (over one-third of intake), followed by desserts, candies, sweetened cereals, and fruit drinks. Researchers warn that excess sugar raises blood pressure and prompts the liver to release harmful fats into the bloodstream — both powerful drivers of heart disease.

🥤 To put this into perspective: a single can of soda can exceed the daily sugar limit recommended by the American Heart Association (6 teaspoons for women, 9 for men). Swapping sugary drinks for sparkling water with fruit or opting for unsweetened desserts can go a long way in protecting your heart.

🫀 The bottom line: Cutting back on added sugars may be one of the most effective ways to lower your risk of heart disease — more so than focusing only on cholesterol.
