Health Benefits of Gardening

As we enter the growing season, gardening is a great way to spend time outdoors—and get some exercise. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention counts activities like raking and cutting grass as light to moderate exercise—while shoveling, digging and chopping wood are considered vigorous exercises. In addition to physical activity, consider these health benefits of gardening:

  • Increased vitamin D levels essential for body functions
  • Boosted self-esteem
  • Improved mood
  • Reduced stress and anxiety

Your doctor can provide additional tips for well-being management.
