Mental wellbeing news
Mood, stress and the tight two-way link between mind and body.
What this desk covers
The mental-wellbeing desk looks at the connections between physical health and mood: exercise and depression, the gut–brain link, stress and sleep, and simple, evidence-based habits. It is general information, never a substitute for professional care.
Regular themes include movement as a mood lever, sleep and mental health, realistic stress management, and spotting overblown claims about supplements for the mind.
Fresh Mental wellbeing items are added as credible reporting appears. The background below applies whenever you read on this topic.
How to read mental wellbeing news
Whatever the headline, weigh it before you act on it. These are the checks this desk uses.
| Trust it more when it is… | Be wary when it is… |
|---|---|
| A large randomised trial or systematic review | A single small study or one person's anecdote |
| The effect size in real terms | A scary relative risk with no absolute numbers |
| Done in humans | Only mice or cells, but sold as human advice |
| Peer-reviewed in a named journal | A press release or an unsourced claim |
| Fits the wider body of evidence | A lone result that supposedly overturns everything |
