Although the link between mental and physical health has long been documented, Valleant’s report says that recent research points to a growing need for integrated approaches to healthcare. According to a study published in the World Psychiatry journal, individuals with severe mental disorders live 10 to 25 years less on average than those without mental illnesses, suggesting a strong connection between mental wellness and life expectancy. Other studies are beginning to examine how physical health can affect mental well-being, with many scientists taking a translational approach to understanding the connection between the mind, brain, and body.
Additionally, it is known that physical activity plays a large role in mental health, and Valleant’s report says that the pandemic illustrates this fact. During the pandemic, many people exercised less due to lockdowns and concerns over contact with others, which correlates with a spike in mental health issues in the same period of time.
Similarly, poor mental health can cause or exacerbate chronic health conditions; for example, individuals with depression are more likely to develop heart disease, while those who suffer from anxiety tend to have high blood pressure or weaker immune systems.
While the impact of physical health on mental health is still not as well understood as the inverse, Valleant’s report says that many emerging mental healthcare treatment plans involve nutrition programs, exercise programs, and other holistic methods, and the broader effects of these programs are a topic of increasing interest within the scientific community.
On an individual basis, the report notes that readers can prevent physical disease by developing resilience through mindfulness techniques, strong social connections, and positive mindsets. Conversely, lifestyle changes that promote a healthy diet, adequate physical activity, and good sleep hygiene will improve mental health outcomes by reducing stress and symptoms of existing mental health issues.
