Explanation:
The risk of developing depression is directly linked to diet, lifestyle and exercise, a ground-breaking index developed by Swinburne researchers has found.
The Risk Index for Depression (RID) developed by Swinburne lecturer Dr Joanna Dipnall, reveals that an individual is more likely to become depressed if their diet is poor, their lifestyle is erratic and they do not exercise.
Dr Dipnall, who lectures in the Department of Statistics Data Science and Epidemiology, says she developed the RID to help identify the most common risk factors for depression and to give health professionals an early intervention tool.
"The RID is about prevention," she says.
"It aims to identify individuals with a predisposition to depression as well as which is the key determinant that would reduce this risk."
Dr Dipnall says the RID is the first risk index of its kind and will help clinicians and sufferers to identify the early signs of depression.
The research found that the risk of depression is most closely linked to our diet, followed by physiological factors and then lifestyle patterns such as sleep and exercise.
Dr Dipnall says that a fibre rich diet is the key to a healthy mind.
"A diet comprised of fibre-rich foods such as leafy green salads, vegetables and whole grains has been consistently associated with a reduced risk for depression," she explains.
"At the same time, an unhealthy diet high in processed foods and high fat dairy has previously been found to be associated with increased odds for depression."
And she says the same is true for the opposite.
"Lifestyle factors such as problems sleeping, snacking behaviour and exercise activity have all been found to be associated with individuals' mental health," she says
While diet has long been associated with mental health, Dr Dipnall believes more research is being conducted on the role that the gut plays in mental health.
"Dietary fibre appears central to gut health, which has recently been a key focus of depression research," she says.
"Our findings provide further support for diet as a key modifiable factor in gut health, and in depression risk."
Dr Dipnall says future research is being planned to build on the current RID model. Dr Dipnall's PhD was awarded by Deakin University with a supervision collaboration between Swinburne and Deakin universities.
Answer:
A healthy mind stays in a healthy body and a healthy body healtfies the society, and later the healthy society healthifies a healthy nation.
Health is the biggest wealth any person or any nation could have and hence, the Government of the nation should make extra efforts to increase the efficiency and facilities in the fields of medical.
Fitness is maintained by doing exercise like jogging, skipping, cycling, etc or my working out at the gym. A person should always do morning exercise along with meditation to keep his/her mind healthy along with his body.
Yoga, especially meditation plays an important role in keeping the mind healthy as when we do deep inhalation, the amount of oxygen taken increases which is supplied to brain and other parts of the body and the body works more precisely.
Eating Healthy is also important along with regular exercise. If a person eats excess junk after exercise, then there is no use of his efforts.
Junk food includes heavy amount of fats which leads to obesity which itself as a disease and hence, junks should be avoid.
We should never forget that we are the future of our nation and keeping oneself is as important as keeping the nation healthy.
