An Australian school-based health program, which targets six lifestyle risk factors: diet, sleep, physical activity, screentime, alcohol use and smoking, has shown no improvement over usual health education in reducing depressive, anxiety or psychological distress symptoms after 1 or 2 years. However, the researchers found that around seven weeks after completing the course, there were short-term benefits for both depressive and psychological distress symptoms. The researchers say
further work is needed to understand how to sustain these effects over the long-term.
