The exact mechanisms behind this link are complex, but it’s believed that the combination of lifestyle factors associated with depression (such as poor diet, lack of exercise, and smoking) and the physiological effects of depression on the body (including inflammation and blood clotting) can contribute to heart problems.

Welcome to the Physiology Friday newsletter. Physiologically Speaking is a reader-supported publication. There’s a surge in research devoted to finding the best time to exercise. These results suggests that more attention should be paid to the idea of “chrono-exercise” for health and disease management.

This finding actually detracts somewhat from the carbohydrate insulin model of obesity, which posits that weight gain (and loss) are regulated largely by the body’s insulin levels (insulin promotes fat storage).

Plenty of people love to exercise. But the disheartening truth is that most people don’t enjoy exercise. A third or less of adults meet the minimum recommendations for aerobic and strength exercise each week. I’m an exercise scientist by training. We can promote exercise until we’re red in the face.

Poor sleep generally impacts cognitive well-being, nutrition and exercise routines, all of which are key pillars of cardiovascular health. Because there is such a close relationship with obesity, the first line of treatment is usually weight loss. Subscribe now How is it treated?

Results revealed that women are twice as likely to exhibit myocardial ischemia in response to mental stress compared to traditional stressors like exercise or pharmacologic stress. Inflammation plays a pivotal role in both depression and obesity, while stress elevates cortisol levels, often initiating this cycle.
