Overweight = Depressed, Depressed = Back Pain? There are two sound bites Ive heard in interviews of (two separate) prominent health and fitness professionals. The first was (paraphrased) If somebody is over weight (obese) then there is a high likelihood they are depressed. The second, which Ive mentioned before, is that there is more correlation with depression and low back pain than MRI findings of disc degeneration. Of course, these are just sound bites, and taken out of context they can be wrongly interpreted. What I see though, is a link between the interplay of all bodily systems (including your mind and spirit) that affects health. So just looking at an MRI for back pain or just taking medication for depression is one dimensional. The thing is, humans arent one dimensional. We are awesome-dimensional, and should be considered as such.
